|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 to 9 per realm | 12 minutes | 500 | 5 | Multi-objective capture |
How to play
- Capture and defend the three objective banners: the Engine Room, Central Gangway, and Upper Deck.
- Keep your group moving between objectives. Capturing points across the ship helps your realm build score while you fight the opposing crew.
- The Central Gangway banner is in the open room beyond the ramp, rather than in the cramped ramped hallway.
- The Upper Deck banner is on the opposite side of the deck from its earlier position. Check the objective marker instead of relying on an old route.
Scoring
- Defeating an enemy player awards 5 points.
- Capturing and holding the objective banners contributes to your realm's score. The first realm to reach 500 points wins.
- If neither realm reaches 500 before the 12-minute time limit, the higher score wins.
Tips for new players
- Watch the objective markers and travel with your group when the fight shifts to another deck.
- Do not let your realm lose control of every objective while chasing kills. A small group can help defend a point while the rest of your team contests another.
- The Central Gangway and Upper Deck banners were moved in September 2026. Check the current marker and do not assume an older guide's positions are still accurate.
- Help your healers and protect allies when fighting in tight spaces around the ship's objectives.
Background
