Phase 2: Engagement (Minutes 5–25)

  • Vanguard pushes the front line
  • Ranged DPS fires from behind vanguard
  • Flankers try to hit enemy support line
  • Support keeps vanguard alive
  • Tip from Community: The faction that wins the first engagement usually wins the war. If your faction loses the first clash, fall back and regroup — don't feed into a losing fight.

    Phase 3: Extraction (Minutes 25–30)

  • The winning faction must escort the chip carrier to the core
    • Protect the carrier at all costs — they move slowly
  • Losing factions should try to intercept the carrier
    • If the carrier dies, the chip drops and anyone can pick it up

    FAQ

    Q: How many Chip Wars should I do per day?

    A: At minimum one. Each Chip War gives ~200 Honor and significant gold. Doing all three is optimal but not required.

    Q: What level should I be for Chip War?

    A: Minimum Level 30 to participate, but Level 40+ with decent PvP gear is recommended to be useful.

    Q: What if my faction always loses?

    A: Even losing gives participation rewards. Focus on personal contribution — kills, damage dealt, and healing all count toward your reward tier.
