Types of Battle Arenas
Random-matching Arena
- Players apply individually and are automatically divided into two teams when the game starts — Blue Dragon and Red Lotus.
- Teams are divided based on the level of the highest-level character among all applicants.
- The scale is 8-on-8 by default, the minimum being 4-on-4 (2-on-2 when the level is below 50).
Party vs. Party Arena
- Players organize the battle party as they like, and only the party leader can apply.
- Parties are designated as Blue Dragon or Red Lotus based on the highest-level member, regardless of member count.
- You can be at a disadvantage if your party has mixed-level members or fewer of them.
Guild vs. Guild Arena
- Only the guild master can apply.
- The guild master chooses up to 15 team members from the Guild Members window when applying.
- Teams are designated as Blue Dragon or Red Lotus based on the highest-level member (16-on-16 maximum).
Job vs. Job Arena
- Merchants and hunters fight against thieves. Players apply individually while equipping their job uniforms.
- Players are divided into Blue Dragon and Red Lotus based on the highest level among the applicants.
- The maximum scale is 32-on-32, the minimum being 4-on-4 (2-on-2 when the level is below 50).

Game Rules
Common rules
- The initial position (resurrection point) is in a safety zone, where characters cannot be attacked but can attack enemies outside the safety zone.
- The names of enemies are displayed in red.
- Characters killed during the battle are teleported to the resurrection point with HP and MP fully restored. No experience penalty is given.
- No transport can be used on the battlefields. Scrolls of Escape, Scrolls of Summon Monster and Pandora's Boxes cannot be used either.
Rules for Point Battle
- Players score by killing the monsters summoned on the battlefield and other player characters.
- Monsters are summoned according to the level of the highest-level character in the area.
- Four types of monsters are summoned, and the points scored depend on the type killed.
- When a monster is killed by both teams at the same time, the team that dealt more damage scores.
- The team with the higher score when time runs out wins; equal scores mean a draw.
