Description

The Field Raid is a quest and an event when one or more monsters, far too powerful for one player to contend with, arrive at certain remote locations. These monsters reside on the Continent of Iria and on the Island of Belvast. They appear and disappear unexpectedly, so be prepared.

Announcements

Occasionally the player may witness the Announcement, ahead of a Field Raid Monster's arrival, which tells the time and at which channel the raid will happen. In case the announcement was missed, the player may refer to the Traveler's Guide Menu and to the Message Log to see any new or previous Field Raids.

The Announcments as seen on the Message Log.
  • Channels: 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 are designated for the Field Raid.
  • Announcements will appear in all channels.
  • The Field Raid announcements can be blocked from the Message log or chat.
  • The player can still use the Black Dragon Summon Scroll and White Dragon Summon Scroll regardless of the channel.
    • Announcements do not appear for Raids started through a summon scroll.

If the player would choose to participate in a Raid they can rally a party and prepare for the battle ahead. They can choose to travel to the monster's location either through the use of the Continent Warp to either Iria or Belvast, the Mana Tunnels in Iria, or the Moon Gates to Belvast. However, there is a faster way of getting there...

The Messengers

Conveniently, in most towns and cities in Uladh, the Town Messenger is there to help guide and whisk away the player to directly to where Raid takes place. Depending on the monster the player may meet the Dragon Messenger who sells items to aide in battle. After the Raid be sure to return to the Town Messenger.

  • The Town Messenger may not appear to players who have not completed Chapter 5: The Saga Iria II or Generation 3 mainstream quests and are not at least 1,000 level total.

The Quest Zone

The Quest Zone is a designated amount of space for the Field Raid quest overall, the Field Raid Monster and all the participants to move around in.

The player's current Field Raid status shows on the top-right of the screen. It appears while inside the Quest Zone.
  • The Quest Zone will open and announcements will take place 3 minutes before the start of a Raid.
  • The Quest Zone is a temporary space available only during the Field Raid.

The Role of the Player

Upon entering the player will receive one or a few other tasks specific to the Raid monster. Further details of the quest can be access to by opening the Quest menu and going to the Field tab.

A Role is one of these tasks which is a set of specific Field Raid quests. Depending on the player's role performing these tasks accordingly will grant the player some reward befitting their efforts.

The Role Select Menu appears while inside the Quest Zone.
  • A Role of the player varies for each Field Raid Monster.
  • Only one can be selected.
  • The tasks and objectives of that Field Raid Quest doesn't have to be fully completed.
  • The player doesn't have to select a role.

Precaution

Inside the Quest Zone there are some limitations, the player's pet may suddenly become unsummoned and are forbidden to summon anymore pets or partners. Be prepared before entering for certain other features are unusable as well. All players inside the Quest Zone may also experience the Field Raid Monster's effects.

  • All participants of the Field Raid should not remain idle or suffer any of monster's attacks and certain other effects.
  • Be aware of using certain skills and techniques to avoid failing some Field Raid Quests.
  • While idle, performing certain actions, or using certain skills, a few Field Raid Monster effects may not affect the player.

Gameplay Performance

Be aware, experiences may vary inside the Quest Zone. As more players arrive and when the Field Raid monster finally appears the gampeplay performance may shift and some settings might affect the overall experience of the battle.

  • A message prompt will appear to tell the player of their visual performance and the visual settings maybe adjusted to allow for the best gameplay performance.
  • The framerate may drop.
  • Some significant lag may occur.

Escape

Although its scope is vast, the Quest Zone is not unlimited and the player may choose to leave its vicinity, like those who unexpectedly enter it. The player may sometimes happen upon a Field Raid while traveling on a trade route, especially in Iria. It is best to avoid Raids while trading.

  • The player can use a Wing of a Goddess, Moon Gate or Mana Tunnel to leave.
  • As long as the player is not targeted by any monster or has not engaged battle for awhile they can leave the Raid.

Contribution and Rewards

Once the Field Raid is successfully completed and the monsters have all been defeated the player is rewarded through their Contribution. The player will receive points for their contribution as well as by meeting the requirements of the Field Raid Quests particular to that Raid.

The player's Contribution points will appear on the Quest menu under the Field tab.

The quests vary from defeating the Field Raid Monster itself to healing other players, and each quest give different amounts of Field Raid Memento. The Memento is a form of currency earned from the amount of the player's contribution and the defeated Field Raid Monster. The Field Raid Memento can be exchanged with the Town Messenger.

  • Contribution cannot be acquired before the monster appears.
  • More points are gained by following the Role's Field Quest objective.
    • If the player did not select a Role, the points added only apply to the goal of defeating the Raid monster. No additional points are gained.
  • Dying in the Field Raid will impact the points negatively.
  • If your Contribution is below a certain level, you will not be able to obtain major rewards, including new Field Raid Mementos.
  • The amount of gold you can receive from a successful Raid increases according to the Contribution obtained, up to a maximum of 50,000 gold.
