Major components of the castle - The Castle Gates The castle gates have defensive power/durability (HP) and can only be attacked during the siege. Weapon durability is greatly reduced when attacking the castle gates, therefore it is strongly advised to take a potion of bless or soul before attacking. When an alliance guild wins the castle while the castle gates are destroyed, the gates will not be restored until the siege is over. The castle gates can be upgraded up to a maximum of 3 stages of defensive power and durability. (upgrading and restoring is not possible during the battle)              The castle gates are divided into 3 parts; with an outer part, a middle, and an inner part. It is possible to penetrate the castle even if only one gate is destroyed. Guardian Statues When all 4 statues inside the castle have been destroyed, the shield of the dragon tower will be destroyed as well. Only the players of the defending team can enter through the shield. Recover HP/MP/AG around the guardian statue and recovery rate can be upgraded up to maximum of 3 stages.

Guard towers attack invading parties around them. Guard towers can be attacked just like Guardian statues or Castle gates.                                                        Dragon Tower This huge tower is located at the last stop of the castle. The tower is divided into a shielded entrance and an upper floor. The upper floor of the Dragon tower houses a pedestal with the official seal of the lord of the castle. The entrance to the Dragon tower is protected by the shield which blocks the invading team's forces. To penetrate the Dragon tower all 4 Guardian statues need to be destroyed.

Command functions are only given to the guild masters of invading/defending teams and it's possible to command the attacking location to the guild members by using these functions.
