[p]Guild Warfare Preview 2[/p][p]We've been making A LOT of progress on Guild Warfare and its first dungeon, The Crablands! Below is a preview of how the warfare will function and how you and your guild can pull off the victory![/p][p]How does it work?
You and your team will load into either Easy, Medium or Hard versions of the Crablands Guild Warfare Dungeon. Inside this dungeon you'll fight your way through tough mobs with and without buffs and aggro. You'll notice a new light red number above your head on mob death! That is your Guild Warfare XP and is what raises your Guild's level and determines victory! Each mob gives this new XP and mini bosses and bosses give a lot more! Compete to make sure that your guild is on top, secures victory over others, and claims unique buffs for the next month![/p][p][/p][p]Order of the Claw Faction[/p][p]The Order of the Claw is the inner circle within the Crab Crusaders and has called upon you to cleanse the Crablands, the new Guild Warfare Dungeon, of defectors calling themselves the Shellborne Legion. Their leader, the Shellborne General, used to command the Crab Crusaders military but after many disputes with the Order of the Claw they left to form their own regime. Now's your time to shine and join their ranks! Level up your faction rank to get your hands on some new powerful faction items and unlock achievements along the way![/p][p][/p][p]February's Subscription Item Vote Winner - Kingsguard Shield[/p][p]The Kingsguard Shield - Forged for those who stand when others kneel.[/p][p][/p][p]

[p]The Broker is essentially the Market but in reverse![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]To use the Broker, head on over to New Crab City and click on the Broker npc.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The sell tab lets you search through buy orders and fulfill them if you have the item. If you sell an item it will be removed from your inventory and you will receive the price via in-game mail.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The buy tab let's you search through all collectible items and offer a price for that item. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The price + fee is the total cost to create a buy order. In the future, I will be adding better filtering controls for searching the collectible item database.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Once a buy order is created, it is shown in the buy tab on the left. If you cancel a buy order, the price + fee will be returned to you. If someone fulfills your buy order, the Broker will keep the fee and send you the item via in-game mail.[/p][p][/p][p]What is this good for? Let's run through an example.[/p][p][/p][p]Example: I want to have every outfit item in the game.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I first open the Collector and sort by missing items and type outfit. I decide hey I'd like the item Big Red.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I then close the Collector and open the Broker. I type in big red and poof there it is. I check the tooltip for the Market median and last sold price and decide I want to pay 500,000 coins.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]And poof there it is. A buy order ready to be filled. I can now just let it sit and hope someone fills it or I can go on http://discord.gg/fantasyonline2 and say hey fill my order please![/p][p][/p][p]And that's the Broker! On to Guild Warfare![/p][p][/p][p]Have Fun & Keep Gaming![/p]

[p]Guild Warfare Dungeons Preview
Gamer and I have been working on the ground work for Guild Warfare via Guild Warfare Dungeons. This is a work in progress so if you have any ideas or feedback let us know![/p][p][/p][p]
Overview
In these dungeons you earn Guild Warfare XP from killing mobs, bosses and collecting Guild Warfare Tokens to increase you Guild Warfare Level/Rank. This level/rank is what will determine the winner at the end of the warfare window.

Guild Warfare Tokens
Guild Warfare Tokens are items you collect via quests within the dungeon. These quests will include daily and weekly quests.
Examples:
- Daily quest: Kill 10 \[Mob Name] OR Kill \[Boss Name] 1 Time.
- Weekly Quest: Kill 50 \[Mob Name] OR Kill \[Boss Name] 3 Times.
Once a Guild Warfare Token is collected you can turn it into the Warfare Hub to earn additional Guild Warfare XP.

Guild Warfare Rewards
We're still ironing out what rewards we'll do but have some pretty interesting ideas like...
- Small Increase in Coin gains
- Double XP, Battle Pass XP and Faction XP
- Outfit Items
- What would you like to see as a reward?
