Battle Information
A Word On Enmity
- Enmity functions abnormally in just one way in Ambuscade and this has entirely to do with enmity gain upon self/party actions.
- Any action (buff, cure, job ability) at any time (before/after pull) taken upon yourself or a party member will gain enmity on all mobs for the person initiating the action.
- This explains why the mobs often go straight for your WHM upon the pull. Protectra, Shellra, and two Bar-spells equal 24 (6*4) party action enmity events if 6 players are in range.
- To counter this have your tank use self/party-target enmity actions (Sentinel, Rampart, Pflug, etc) shortly before and/or during the pull.
- This will ensure that the tank has the highest value of enmity on all of the mobs without using any sort of AoE beforehand for the purpose of normal hate gain eligibility requirements.
- Any action (buff, cure, job ability) at any time (before/after pull) taken upon yourself or a party member will gain enmity on all mobs for the person initiating the action.
Battle Type & Levels
There are two types of Ambuscades you may attempt. Entry into either is determined by which Key Item you posses.

Rewards
- See Ambuscade Rewards for specific item and equipment rewards.
Hallmarks
Hallmarks are the primary currency of Ambuscade. They can be used to purchase items from Gorpa-Masorpa.
There are two types of rewards available. Those received in exchange for Hallmarks and those received for total amount of hallmarks accumulated.
- Hallmarks are not expended upon receiving items from the list of rewards for total amount of hallmarks accumulated.
- The types of items available vary with the content of that month’s Ambuscade.
- Your total number of hallmarks will reset back to 0 after each month's version update.
- Hallmarks and Badges of Gallantry are reset upon the next month's version update being implemented (usually set to happen from around the 3rd to the 10th of a month).[3]
Gallantry
Badges of Gallantry are the secondary currency of Ambuscade. They can be used to purchase items from Gorpa-Masorpa, and are only given to those who participate in Ambuscade with other players.
- Like Hallmarks, your Badges of Gallantry will reset back to 0 after each month's version update.
- Hallmarks and Badges of Gallantry are reset upon the next month's version update being implemented (usually set to happen from around the 3rd to the 10th of a month).[4]
JSE Augmentation
Job-specific equipment obtained with hallmarks can be augmented by trading them along with certain items to Gorpa-Masorpa.
- See the JSE capes page for augment information for the Job Specific Capes.
To augment a cape:
- Trade the item to Gorpa-Masorpa along with either an Abdhaljs Thread, Abdhaljs Dust, Abdhaljs Sap, or an Abdhaljs Dye.
- Select the desired attribute, confirm your choice, and then repeat, repeat, repeat and then write SE an angry letter that it takes so long.
- Augments may be changed by repeating the above steps.
- Changing the augment path will not return any items used up to that point.
- However, when using an Abdhaljs Needles to change the augment, the current potency is maintained.
- Further trading an augmented item with items corresponding to the attribute initially selected will increase the strength of the augmentation.
- For maximum strength augments the following are all required per cape:
- Abdhaljs Thread x20
- Abdhaljs Dust x20
- Abdhaljs Sap x10
- Abdhaljs Dye x10
