The nine Unity faction NPCs



Introduced in Seekers of Adoulin, Unity is a collaborative Records of Eminence event in which players pledge allegiance to one of nine Unity Factions. Players earn Accolades, a unique Unity-based currency for completing various objectives. The primary rewards from Unity are unique weapons and armor obtained from vanquishing notorious monsters in fights named Wanted Battles. Players collective efforts determine their faction rank which determines the amount of bonus gained on Unity weapons and armor.

Unity was introduced in the November 10, 2014 update [1]

Getting Started

Requirements

In order to participate, players must satisfy the following:

How to Participate

Unity Objectives

Players primary objective is to complete complete Records of Eminence objectives under the Unity section of the menu. This will earn players the most Accolades.

  • Other objectives that are not Unity specific will grant a small amount of Accolades of which is specified when flagging them.
  • Unity Eminence objectives count towards a players 15 objective limit.

Certain Unity objectives are shared, and some are faction specific objectives.

Unity Accolades

Accolades can be earned by completing Unity-based Records of Eminence objectives. A small amount can be earned from non-Unity objectives and defeating certain monsters.

The accolades can be used in a variety of ways such as:

  • Participating in the Wanted battles.
  • Purchasing items.
  • Enhancing equipment found in Wanted battles.
  • Teleporting to Wanted battle staging areas.
  • Determining your faction rank.

Unity Chat

Players may speak directly to their faction by using the unity chat either as the default chat setting or by typing /unity or /u before typing.

  • This feature may be turned off in the menu under Status>Unity>Unity Info>Unity chat settings: Active or Inactive.

Unity Lists

Players may select Unity Lists in the Unity menu to view a list of the members sorted by faction. This is ideal for being able to find out which friends or linkshell members have deeply betrayed you by joining a different union. The list functions like the search menus do for areas. This way you can track down specific names and let them know how they should rally behind Naja's morning star less they be beaten senseless or how Apururu is the one true faction leader, all hail Apururu.

Unity Rankings

  • Unity rankings are tabulated and announced every week (Earth time). Rankings are decided based on an average of the individual evaluation of all Unity members during that week. This individual evaluation is calculated at the rate of one point per 1,000 accolades.

Changing Factions

Players may switch Unities by paying a certain number of Accolades to an A.M.A.N. representative. The fee charged depends on the difference in ranking between the current and desired Unities, with transferring to higher ranked Unities requiring more accolades. Once a Unity has been chosen, players cannot transfer again until the following Sunday at midnight (JST).

Wanted Battles

Wanted battles are confrontation-style fights that charge adventurers with slaying particular notorious monsters. In this style of battle, neither other players nor other monsters may interact with participants in the battle, which takes place in a specific area. Completing a Wanted objective will reward players with equipment and other items.

The following prerequisites must be met to participate in a Wanted battle:

  • Be in a party or alliance of between three and eighteen players
    • With seven or more players, the Wanted target's HP will increase in line with the number of players over six.
  • All party members must accept the requisite Wanted objective.
  • All party members must possess the required number of accolades.

Wanted battles are flagged in the Records of Eminence menu under Unity. The zone, location of the fight, recommended level, cost, number required, and Sparks,Experience Points, and Capacity Points rewards are all specified.
