How and when did you get into creating Albion Online content?

I first got into content creation when I was playing Hellgates with a friend. At first, I just wanted to make funny videos, but over time, I started experimenting with cinematic, mad-movie-style editing to give my clips a more intense and dramatic feel.

Do you have a favorite video of yours that you think everyone should have seen? Let us know why it's special!

This video intentionally exaggerates inventory weight to make my character appear slow and heavy, baiting top players and pros into chasing me. It’s been praised for being very clever, and I think it can definitely inspire others. I highly recommend checking it out!

Do you have any new content in the making that you would like to tease?

I enjoy creating stories where I use off-meta gear to completely crush the current popular meta. As a teaser, my next video will feature a build with a Robe paired with an impressive Sword…

What advice would you give other players who are considering becoming Albion Online content creators?

At first, I uploaded videos just to keep a record of my fights without much thought. But when they started gaining attention, I became more motivated, and since then I’ve continued creating content. If you genuinely enjoy playing Albion, go ahead and give it a try anytime. That’s how I started, and it’s what keeps me going.

This Referral Season, let Horsferatu in! Cloaked in velvet and flashing wicked fangs, this dramatic steed turns every ride into a midnight masquerade. Invite a friend to turn your Riding Horse into a bloodthirsty vampire and let it carry you beneath the moonlight… just remember to keep garlic out of the saddlebags.

The more souls you turn, the greater your rewards will be:

• Refer 1 Friend: Horsferatu mount skin
• Refer 3 Friends: A T7 Pile of Tomes worth 100,000 Fame
• Refer 5 Friends: A T8 Pile of Tomes worth 200,000 Fame
• Bonus for your first-ever referral: A T8 Pile of Tomes worth 200,000 Fame
• Additionally, for each friend you refer, you'll receive 500 Gold!

Getting your friends in on the action is as simple as following these steps:

• Step 1: Share your referral link with a friend, which you can find here when logged into the website with your game account
• Step 2: Your friend signs up to Albion Online
• Step 3: Your friend purchases at least 30 days of Premium status from the Albion Online Web Shop or ingame store, unlocking your rewards
  • Note that this does not apply to Premium purchased with ingame currencies (Gold and Silver)

Invite a friend today! Time is short, the night is fleeting, and once dawn breaks on the last day of the month, Horsferatu returns to its coffin.

The harvest season is here. Fields lie silent under the moon, and whispers drift across Albion’s cemeteries inviting you to join the Harvest Challenge. By earning Challenge Points in the open world, you can gather eerie treasures and reap the ultimate reward: the Spectral Bat, a ghostly creature that flickers through the night like a restless spirit. Every point gathered is another soul for your harvest, so take up your sickle now and collect what is yours!

[h3]Reap What You Sow[/h3] SPECTRAL BAT: This month's Challenge offers another chance to claim the amazing Spectral Bat. In addition to its spooky appearance, this winged menace comes with a powerful Flicker spell that allows you to jump to a target location in the blink of an eye. (Note: like all mounts, the Spectral Bat cannot fly over obstacles or gaps.)

AVATAR RING: Adventurers who rack up enough total Challenge Points will also earn the Harvest Challenge Avatar Ring, featuring a pair of eerie, grinning skeletons. This non-tradable item permanently unlocks this avatar border for one character, or can be traded to the Vanity Merchant for one Vanity Token.

SEASONAL SPECIALS: All month long, reach weekly point totals to unlock Harvest Challenge Chests. Along with valuable rewards like Adventurer's Tomes, Silver, resources, and other loot, you'll also have a chance to unlock six seasonal furniture items: the Scary Pumpkin Lantern, Friendly Pumpkin Lantern, Halloween Lantern, Halloween Cauldron, Halloween Scarecrow, and Halloween Pyre.

[h3]How to participate in the Adventurer's Challenge[/h3]
The Adventurer's Challenge is a monthly event where you can earn exclusive rewards such as mounts, Tomes of Insight, bags of Silver, and more. By gathering, fishing, farming, and defeating monsters, you'll earn Challenge Points that fill daily, weekly, and monthly progress bars. To track your progress, open the Adventurer's Challenge UI by clicking on the Activities menu.



While only Premium players can unlock the Monthly Rewards (Avatar Ring, Mount) and Weekly Rewards (Challenge Chests), anyone can claim the Daily Rewards, which include 10 Learning Points and a Tier 4 Tome of Insight. Non-Premium players also make progress on all reward tracks, so when you’re ready to unlock Premium, your earned rewards will be waiting for you!

Behind the Banner is a series that shines a light on Albion's many diverse guilds, from fierce PvP warbands to tight-knit social communities. Each episode delves into the identity, playstyle, and goals of a different guild, offering a glimpse into what life is really like behind the banner.

• Guild Name: G2U
• Alliance: UA
• Guild Leader: ZHROLYK
• Date Founded: June 2022
• Size: ~290 members
• Primary Language: Ukrainian
• Server: Albion Europe
• Discord: discord.gg/fSRs9vfzE5

Tell us about your guild.

I created the guild to play with a purpose: we study, improve, and promote the Ukrainian language. Today, we are a community of like-minded people and a piece of homeland for many Ukrainians who had to leave their country.

What sort of activities do you focus on?

We engage in all types of activities. Freedom is the highest value for Ukrainians, so everyone in our community has the right to play whatever content they want. This is the secret of our success and longevity.

What sort of members are you looking for?

We only accept Ukrainians. If you are Ukrainian and looking for a Ukrainian community, you won’t find a better guild than ours. That’s a fact!

Where is your guild primarily located?

Throughout our guild's long history, it is difficult to find a territory where we have not lived. Many argue about which territory is better, but there’s one thing I know for sure: it is not where you are that matters, but who you are with. For me, home is where my friends are.

Do you have any rivalries or ongoing quarrels with other guilds?

We have no enemies. We are a very friendly guild, and if someone wants to quarrel with us, it only proves they’re a fool in real life.

What are some of your most memorable battles or activities?

We have many stories, but one stands out. While preparing to build a Hideout, a real-life missile attack began on my city. Imagine: no electricity, everything burning, explosions, air defense firing, sirens howling… and I’m standing in the middle of the street holding my phone above my head to get a signal, all because my guild is waiting for me. If the police had seen me, I would have been in serious trouble, since it’s forbidden to film air defense during wartime. And who would have believed I was stupid enough to risk myself just for a computer game? Luckily everything ended well, both for me and for our Hideout.

What does your guild do for fun?

In those brief moments of peace, we gather around the chest in our Hideout and share the loot. It’s always a lot of fun.

What is your guild's approach to the game? Do you have any core values or beliefs that guide how you play together?

Our approach is very simple: have fun, and don’t prevent other players from having fun.

What are your goals for the future?

Our goal is to play Albion, and whatever happens, happens. It’s the best game in the world. We are very grateful for it!

Anything else to share about your guild?

We are proud to be the first Ukrainian guild to achieve Gold and Crystal ranks. At the same time, most of our players constantly experience problems with electricity and the internet due to the war. If other guilds played in the same conditions as we do, they would not achieve even half of our success.
