NOSTALRIUSSeason 3
Events & PvP
MU Nostalrius is built around PvP: the Sunday Castle Siege, Fort Siege twice a week and 14 raid bosses that rival guilds fight over — on top of the classic Season 3 rotation, the Deep Dungeon and the TvT arena, so something is scheduled around the clock.
Main events
Castle Siege
Guild master registers on Monday, Marks of Lord Tuesday to Friday — level 200+, 20+ members
The guild war that decides who owns the castle. The battle runs every Sunday from 15:00 UTC for 60 minutes, with up to 3 guilds attacking the holder. When the battle starts, every attacker on the field is sent back to their camp and anyone without a side to the safezone — only the defenders keep their positions.
Fort Siege
Tuesdays and Fridays — the guild master registers at a Fortress Herald (Lorencia, Noria, Devias), 5+ members
Guilds fight for the fortresses of Noria, Lorencia and Devias. Hold the altar crystal the longest to own a fortress, with EXP, drop and Zen-tax bonuses on its maps.

Deep Dungeon
Talk to the Dungeon Guide in Lorencia, level 150+
5 sealed floors that open twice a day for 30 minutes. There are no stairs and no warps — the Dungeon Guide in Lorencia is the only way in, and the deeper you go the better the hunting.

Raid Bosses
Spawns on a schedule — watch the announcements
14 raid bosses in four difficulty tiers, each with its own drop table. The drop goes to the player or party that deals the most damage — so rival guilds fight each other as hard as they fight the boss, under the normal PK rules. Every kill is announced server-wide.

World Invasions
Golden Invasions fill the hunting maps with golden monsters carrying Box of Kundun rewards, led by a Great Golden Dragon. Red Dragons hit Lorencia, Noria and Devias and drop jewels — sometimes packed stacks of 10. The White Wizard corps raids a single town every two hours from 12:40 to 22:40 — the Wizard himself pays 15kk Zen and a Jewel of Bless and often a one-day Wizard’s Ring, and his ogres drop rings too.

Scheduled Team vs Team battles in a dedicated arena. Ten minutes, respawns on, most kills wins.

Declared by the guild masters
Duels
Settle it 1v1 the classic way: challenge a player and fight right where you both stand — no arena, no warp, no fee. First to 10 kills wins; leaving the map, warping or logging out ends the duel. Not on event maps or during the Castle Siege battle.
Challenge any player from level 30 up
Golden Archer
Blood Castle and Devil Square 5–7 monsters drop Rena; hand 5 of them to the Golden Archer in Lorencia for 3kk Zen and one item from her reward bag — with a 10% bonus roll for a Jewel of Creation, Jewel of Guardian or Gemstone, and a separate 10% roll for a packed bundle of ten Bless, Soul or Life, on top.

TvT Arena
Team vs Team is our scheduled arena battle: two teams, one map, ten minutes, most kills wins. Death is not the end — you respawn at your own team’s spawn point and keep fighting.
1
When the event opens, a server-wide announcement goes out. Talk to the Battle Statue in Lorencia, or type /tvt join, to register.
2
You are teleported to the waiting area. Registration stays open for 3 minutes while the countdown runs.
3
Players are split into a blue and a red team and teleported into the arena for a 10 minute battle.
4
The team with the most kills wins 20kk Zen and a random jewel (Bless, Soul, Chaos or Life); the losing team still takes 5kk. Everyone is teleported back to town.
Winners also roll a 5% chance for a packed jewel — a bundle of 10 — on top of their guaranteed one.
Every fighter of both teams also rolls a 0.8% chance for a random event ticket card (Blood Castle, Devil Square or Kalima).

Classic events & their rewards
Blood Castle, Devil Square, Chaos Castle and the Illusion Temple each run in level brackets, and the bracket you enter decides the payout. Most events limit how often one character may run them per day — the badges below carry each event’s own rules. Magic Gladiators and Dark Lords enter lower brackets than the levels shown, and Chaos Castle also takes an Armor of Guardsman on top of the fee.
Devil Square
Blood Castle
Chaos Castle
Illusion Temple
Kanturu Refinery Tower
Zen is shown as it is paid out — the configured amount is multiplied by the server’s money rate (x6). EXP is the base amount and is multiplied by your own experience rate (x50 at 0 resets, down to x35), so it is worth far more than the number reads. Devil Square and the Illusion Temple pay by finishing place; Blood Castle and Chaos Castle pay by result.
Open PvP and the outlaw system
Attack another player outside an event and your name turns purple — unless they are an outlaw or in a guild you are at war with — so anyone may finish you without penalty. Kill someone who never raised a hand against you and you become an outlaw instead — the server tells the two apart at the moment of the kill, and it keeps a separate counter for each.
Your own guild and every guild of your alliance are off limits: no hit, skill, pet or debuff of yours touches them, Ctrl or not, so a misclick in a crowd never kills a guild mate. Only a duel, a guild war or Chaos Castle lets them fight.
An Ice Arrow freeze lasts five seconds, but every hit that lands on the frozen target takes a second off it, and Lightning knocks a player back at most once every two seconds.
Kills that cost you nothing
The victim is already an outlaw — hunting them is open to everyone. Killing an outlaw makes you a Hero for an hour: you lose only half the usual experience when you die.
The victim is flagged purple: they attacked first. This is the kill that counts on the PvP board.
Self-defense, against someone who just attacked you.
A member of a guild you have declared war on.
Anything inside TvT, a guild war, Battle Soccer, a duel or a mini game that allows player killing — and in the Castle Siege, a fighter of the other side (killing a bystander who joined neither side still counts as murder).
What murder costs
Town guards attack you on sight from the first outlaw stage.
Hitting you no longer flags anyone — every player may kill you for free.
Each kill adds 1 hour to the clock. It ticks down while you are online, and every monster you kill takes off one second per monster level.
You cannot warp — outlaws walk.
NPC merchants refuse to trade or repair for you, and most mini games will not let you in.
Dying costs far more experience: up to 5% at the warning and up to 7% at the second stage, against 1% normally.

Two boards, two counters: The rankings show both. PvP kills are the ones where the other player started it; PK Outlaws is a lifetime murder tally, so it lists everyone who ever killed a peaceful player — not only the ones who are red right now.
