Warfront Empire vs Chaos
Zone Type Scenario (Group-Solo)
Level Range20 to 31 (Tier 3)

Highpass Cemetary is a 12-on-12 Scenario in Tier 3 Chaos vs. the Empire. Anyone between the levels 18-40 can hop in this Scenario and fight amongst the headstones. There are two capture locations in this Scenario: the Crypt and the Stag. Both are graves of highly revered warriors from days of old.

Players begin the Scenario behind three closed gates. One gate leads to the Crypt, one gate leads to the Stag, and the center gate leads to the central graveyard. Most players will bull rush straight out the front gate to get to the fighting. However, a smart player will go left or right to secure a capture location as quickly as possible.

When you capture a location, a large glowing ring surrounding the tomb will change colors from white to red or blue (depending on your Realm). Capture both locations, and your team is awarded points towards a victory. I repeat: you must hold both locations in order to earn points. Capture both and a buff will appear near your spawn location. This buff will give you a small damage boost. After thirty seconds or so, the capture areas will revert to their neutral state and battle for control begins again!

The action in this Scenario can be pretty hectic due to the confined space around the capture areas, and wide open middle of the map. Be ready for some twitch warfare and make sure you keep the enemy away from your captured tomb. As this is a relatively small 12-on-12 map with only two locations to fight over, attrition becomes a big issue. A staunch defense facing a hard-hitting offense will make for a battle for the ages in this Scenario.

That's it for this episode of Scenarios 101! Hopefully you've got some basics down for these scenarios as well as general basics for our instanced battles. Stay tuned for more in future newsletters.

Until next time...BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!
