Siege basics
The following sections contain information on siege basics.
Siege Basics
Start by reading the documentation
One way to learn about siege is to read the official documentation. I do this often but even now I still find it very complicated to the point of being incomprehensible. I am working on a siege basics section trying to explain how this relates to our clan
Our siege defensive strategys
There is a whole section near the bottom this page dedicated to siege defensive strategy.
You can jump to it by clicking the button below. The button below jumps to this section.
Working as a team
I hope that members of our clan can see something that needs to be done in siege and just do it without being told. I hope that when clan members are out of resources they suggest to our fellow members in chat things that need to be done. Together in this way we can form a sort of collective hive mind. This is our collective consciousness so to speak.
BASICS:The Green and Blue flags
Up at the top left of some structures are up to two flags.
These flags are set by the clan leader to suggest where defenders need to be placed and where repairs and upgrades are suggested.
Green flags indicating locations where defenders are needed to be placed in team slots.
The blue flag with the hammer on it indicates where upgrades and repairs are needed. Currently all our buildings are repaired but there are still flags indicating where upgrades are suggested.
Siege def scrolls, filling team slots and rewards
What are Siege DEF scrolls
Each of us gets siege Def Scrolls. The number depends on your position in the clan and the number of team slots our clan fortress currently has.
Everyone gets at least two scrolls. Some people get three scrolls. I get 3 siege def scrolls as a clan leader.
You can click on a building and add your team to the garrison as long as you have any siege Def Scrolls left.
How to add a team to a team slot
From the bastion if you click on battles you will see a list of different types of battles. You will see campaign, dungeon and so on. Siege is the battle on the far right hand side of this list.
Click on Siege, a map of our clan fortress comes up.
Again in the 12 day long prep phase you can move your teams around. If you move a team out of a building or post your siege DEF scroll gets refunded and you can use it someplace else.
Siege Rewards Basics
All you need to do to collect rewards in siege is place a team in a defensive team slot during the prep phase. The prep phase lasts 12 days.
If you place a team you get your milestone rewards. You also get mana orbs if our mana shrines or stronghold survive. You also get mana orbs if our clan destroys their mana shrines or strongholds.
You can also get florens if you successfully defend a team slot, or successfully attack an enemy team slot.
Use florens for Repairs and Upgrades
Our objective in siege
As your clan leader, I suggest that our main objective in siege is to build a powerful clan fortress.
Our stronghold is currently level 3.
The maximum level for buildings in siege level 6.
Imagine all our buildings raised to high levels with really nice bonuses set on every building. Imagine every post with a team in it and a really tricky condition set.
Repair then upgrade our stronghold
During the 12 day prep phase an important goal is to repair our stronghold and other buildings which have been destroyed in the last battle.
Repairing the stronghold and other buildings is inexpensive and happens quickly. For example it costs 350 florens it repair the stronghold.
The stronghold, when repaired can have a bonus set that effects every building in our entire clan fortress.
An important long term goal is to upgrade our stronghold to level 4.
Our stronghold is a matter of pride for our clan. When we upgrade our stronghold it makes our entire clan fortress stronger.
Again we are then able to use our mana orbs to set bonuses in our stronghold which apply to every building in the stronghold.
Our stronghold is currently level 3. Buildings including strongholds can be upgraded to level 6. Other buildings can only be upgraded to the level our stronghold.
How much it costs to upgrade our stronghold is covered in the next section.
How much it costs to upgrade our stronghold to level 4
It costs 30,000 florens to upgrade our stronghold from level 3 to level 4.
Last time I checked we had already collected just a little more than 4,000 florens towards our next stronghold upgrade.
So upgrading our stronghold to level 4 might take a while.
Mana shrines
So far our mana shrines have never been destroyed
Our mana shrines should be defended at all costs. If the mana shrines survive a siege battle the reward is mana orbs. We get 130 orbs each or 260 orbs for defending both shines succesfully.
Defended mana shrines bring in 130 mana orbs each. A defended stronghold only brings in 75 mana orbs. Mana shrines are important because if we succesfully defend both of them every member of our clan that places a team in a defensive team slot or wins at least one PvP slot offensive battle gets 260 mana orbs which come in really handy in siege.
How to repair or update a building
Buildings just repairs itself once enough florens have been donated.
Again:
Our stronghold costs 350 florens to repair.
Mana shrines cost 140 florens to repair.
Magic towers cost to 125 florens to repair.
Defence towers are 70 florens to repair.
The only hard part is getting the florens we need. This has not been much of a problem.o
Here are step by step directions. If you click on a building in the siege map a window will open. There is a button over on the top left of this window that says "update". You click on that update button both to update and repair.
Once you click on that first update button another window opens up. You will see two donate buttons. The upper donate button has the word upgrade above it. The lower donate button has the word "repair" above it. Hit the donate button you want and yet another window opens up. Type in the amount you want to donate. Then you can donate your florens by hitting the button.
Favorite Buildings
Some of us have a favorite building in our clan fortress.
For example I live in magic tower 1. I have upgraded it to level 3. I can't upgrade my magic tower again until the stronghold is uograded.
If you like a particular building feel free to move into it and repair it and upgrade it.
My suggestion is that clan members let their hearts be their guide as to where they want to donate their florins.
Defence Strategy 1, last ditch defense
About the last ditch defense.
This is the final defense of our stronghold.
Defend our stronghold
According to this defense strategy our strongest teams belong in our stronghold. defending the stronghold is our top defensive priority!
If our stronghold gets destroyed in the battle phase, it will cost 350 florins to repair it.
Those of you who feel your place is in the stronghold by all means set up your team there.
if we successfully defend our stronghold we get 75 mana orbs.
Defend our mana shrines
Defending the mana shrines is our second priority.
We currently have only two buildings left in our clan fortress that have never been destroyed. These are our two mana shrines.
We get 260 mana orbs by defending both our shrines. That is 130 mana orbs per shrine.
If a mana shrine gets destroyed it costs 140 florins to repair it. This is 280 florins in repair costs if both are destroyed.
Again, I suggest that we can defend our mana shrine buildings in upcoming battles at all costs.
Defence strategy 2, Front line defence
There are only 3 ways into the clan fortress
There are only three ways into the clan fortress. Post 2, Post 3 and Post 5.
In our clan we call the right side of the map the "east side." So Post 5 can be called "the east gate." Post 2 can be called " the west gate" and Post 3 can be called "the docks."
I like it when a really strong player decides to move into the post 2, the "west gate" position in the preparation phase of siege battle. This is the only direct access to the west side of the river.
If the defender of Post 2, the west gate has a small personal cash of mana orbs they can use them to "set conditions" on their post to make it even harder to take.
In theory if the enemy can't take one of these three posts they can't destroy any buildings. But this should only be our first line of defence. We might not be able to stop them at our front lines. In order to shut them out of our clan fortress we would need three teams so powerful that they don't have a single team that can
Mana orb donation crisis
We have a mana orb donation crisis
Updated
August 11th 2025.
Last time I checked only 12 team members had donated mana. Scrub, you were the first, thank you everyone for your generosity.
We need mana orbs to set a bonus on our stronghold and other buildings.
I will be working hard to keep this section updated frequently.
Team slot placement crisis
We have a crisis in team placement
Updated August 11th 2025
We have a team slot placement crisis. Some of our clan members are not placing teams into team slots Last time I checked we had filled only 67 team slots out of 78 slots available.
It is suggested if you don't understand how to add a team to please review the basics of siege def scrolls.
Team slot placement is a participation goal
Please review the siege participation goals.
Placement of teams is goal C in participation goals.
