Battle of Survival

The Battle of Survival is a Battle Royale type of event. It is available to players that have reawakened twice, are level 105, have a Boundary of Royal Sky I, and have reached the Celestial Saint cultivation. To register for the event, players can talk to Recruit Officer Taylor in Polydeux in the Western Steppes to receive a Battle of Survival Certificate. This certificate is time-limited to 24 hours. When you have the certificate, talk to Recruit Officer Taylor again to be teleported into the battlefield lobby.

The event is available all day and a new battle session occurs roughly every 31 minutes; a 5-minute warning before the battle begins, 1 minute for players to be teleported to the battlefield, and then a battle session that lasts up to 25 minutes. Players can enter the Battle of Survival lobby at any time to register, even if a battle session is currently running.

To participate, you must be in PK Mode. If you are blue-named (not in PK Mode) you will not be able to attack other players. You can still be attacked by other players even if you are not in PK Mode.

Rules
When entering the Battle of Survival, no names will be visible; instead, players will be named "Mysterious Man" even when in the lobby or exit area. You cannot squad up with other players inside the event. If you attempt to enter Battle of Survival while in a squad, your character will automatically leave the squad. You can interact with players by holding the Alt key and right-clicking the player's avatar, which will also enable you to see their name if you choose to Whisper them.

All players will have their equipment changed in the Battle of Survival to end-game equipment regardless of their current equipment. You will keep your skills, genie, and glyphs. Your base stats will also change depending on your class. The equipment you will have is third cast Twilight Warsoul Gear, a Nuema Portal War Avatar set, a fifth cast Dragonbreath Weapon, and endgame Arigora Colosseum and Nation Wars equipment. You can view the gear you have equipped by clicking on the large buff icon when you enter.

The battle occurs on a map similar to an area in the northeastern corner of the Western Steppes. This area has no NPCs and contains Changeling mobs and treasure chests. Every so often, the safe zone will shrink, forcing players to move closer to each other on the map. The zone will shrink after 8 minutes, 11 minutes, 14 minutes, 17 minutes, and 20 minutes. You can view the map and the zones by pressing the M key.

Changeling Ashura
The Changeling Ashura is a boss that can appear in the safe zones during a battle, including in gray zones. It will only appear 3 times during a fight; after 6 minutes, 12 minutes, and 18 minutes. A notice will appear on-screen shortly after the Changeling Ashura appears. Killing it will yield the highest quality items.

Killing a Changeling Ashura will yield 3 random red-named items, the highest quality items you can receive.

Chests
Changeling Treasure chests will spawn randomly across the map when the battle session begins. They take 5 seconds to dig and will yield 1 basic-level item that is purple-named.

Items
Items can be used to buff your character during the Battle of Survival. They can be acquired by killing various monsters or digging the chests scattered around the battlefield. There are three different qualities of items: Basic (purple items), Intermediate (gold items), and Advanced (red items). You can drop these items on the ground freely, and they will also drop from your character if you are killed. The items will disappear if you log off or leave the Battle of Survival.

The majority of items you receive will grant you buffs, with the exception of Soul Bane which is a debuff item. To use the Soul Bane, target an enemy and then right-click the item.

When using an item, it will overwrite other buffs of the same type you have previously used on the battlefield, including lower-quality and higher-quality buffs. For example, if you use the Force of Arhat item it will overwrite Attack Level buffs from other items you have already used (Force of Bodhisattva and Force of Buddha).

Most items can be used infinitely. If an item can only be used once, it will say as such in the item's tooltip. Items that will disappear upon use include Source of Life, Source of Vigor, Source of Existence, Step of Liberty, and Soul Bane.
