The Empirrrre Needs You!

A great Mithra once said, "Ask not what your empirrre can do forrr you...but ratherrr, what you can do for your empirrre!"
With the ongoing war with the Far East and the aggression of the Beastmen hordes, there has never been a more important time to be engaged in your patriotic duty to the Empire of Aht Urhgan!

In order to enlist the help of patriotic adventurers, the Empire has commissioned Mercenary Companies to complete specific tasks to help the Empire with training and logistical support, as well as accomplishing objectives deemed too sensitive for the Empire's army regulars.

Signing up for an Assault Mission

To participate in Assault, you must first complete Aht Urhgan Mission 3 to enlist in a mercenary company, such as the fine outfit run by the generous, benevolent Naja Salaheem.

Once you are part of a mercenary company, the Empire will issue you Imperial Army I.D. Tags. Each tag will allow you to attempt a single Assault Mission.

  • The tags will be held in reserve by Rytaal at the Commissions Agency until you speak to him to retrieve a tag.
  • You may only redeem one tag at a time. Complete a mission and return to Rytaal before attempting to redeem another tag.
  • If Rytaal is holding less than 3 tags in reserve (4 for Captains), the Empire will issue a new ID tag every 24 hours (Earth Time) after the first tag was redeemed.
  • You are able to hold 1 tag and at the same time allow Rytaal to store up your maximum number of tags.

When you have a Imperial Army I.D. Tag, you may sign up for a mission by talking to the NPCs at the desks in the lower area of the agency, who will offer you missions based on your Assault Rank. Select a mission and you will receive Assault Orders in exchange for the tag. Assault Orders will permit you to enter the assault, and will also allow you to use the Runic Portal to travel to your assault destination without a Runic portal use permit.

  • Assault Orders will not permit you to travel to Runic Portals that you have not already visited.
  • Exiting the secured area with Assault Orders is prohibited.

Initiating an Assault Mission

A party must fulfill these conditions to initiate an assault mission:

  • All players in the party must be level 50 or above.
  • All players in the party, at the Runic Portal must have the same Assault Orders.
  • The party must be between 1 and 6 people.
    • Any characters which disconnect during the entry procedure will count towards this limit, but they will fail to enter the zone and their Assault Orders will not be used.

The party must designate a single member to assume the lead for the mission. To assume the lead, talk to the Imperial Guard at the Staging Point. 50 Imperial Standing can be exchanged for an Assault Armband which can be used to lead the mission.

Once the party is prepared, the designated leader initiates the mission by interacting with the Runic Seal. After selecting parameters, any party members in the vicinity of the Runic Seal will be automatically transported to the assault location and their Assault Orders will be marked as used.

  • Used Assault Orders will still allow you to use the Runic Portal freely, but cannot be used to enter another assault mission.

Caution: Players in other zones or a large distance from the Seal will not be transported. Please ensure all your party members are nearby before initiating the mission.

  • Note: As of the December 2013 Version Update, players are now able to enter without any other party members. Due to the nature of some Assault Missions, it may be very difficult to win all objectives while solo.

Winning and Losing

Upon entry to the assault location, a timer will start, and the party will be informed of the time limit for the mission. The party must trigger the Rune of Release before the time limit is exhausted or the mission will be a failure.

Each assault mission has a unique set of objectives which must be accomplished before the Rune of Release will spawn. Completing these objectives will cause the Rune of Release to spawn. The party is free to continue the assault mission after the Rune spawns, and in some cases will be rewarded for further efforts. However, the party must be careful to trigger the Rune before the time limit expires, because if they do not, the mission will be a failure even if all objectives are met.

Upon successful completion of the mission, each party member will be rewarded with Assault Points. The amount of assault points varies depending on mission, and in some cases the party can receive penalties for poor performance during the mission.

  • Each mission has a base value of AP which will be rewarded to each player (see table below).
    • The table shows the maximum AP earnable per person for a party of 3 people.
    • In some missions, AP penalties will be assessed for underperforming (for example, capturing only 4 of the 5 Fairy Apkallu during Apkallu Seizure)
    • For any mission except First Lieutenant missions, bringing additional party members will reduce the base value by 10% per additional party member beyond 3.
    • For First Lieutenant missions, the amount of AP rewarded is static regardless of party size.
  • Each participant will receive the same base value regardless of their actual contribution during the Assault.
  • Players will receive an individual 50% AP bonus if this was the first time they successfully completed the mission.
  • The designated leader will receive a 10% AP bonus if the mission was a success.
    • This 10% bonus is cumulative with the first-time bonus as well. Thus, a leader who wins the assault for the first time will receive 165% of the base value.
  • In the event that the party failed the mission, each party member instead receives 100 Assault Points. No leader or first-time bonuses are awarded.

Ranking Up

If an assault is completed successfully, each member earns 1 Rank-Up Point. If that is the first time completing that Assault, the player will receive an additional 4 Rank-Up Points, for a total of 5.

You can check which assaults you have completed by checking your menu under "Missions", there will be a separate tab labeled "Assaults" that will display current and completed assaults.

After a player has collected 25 or more Rank-Up Points, they may start a promotion quest from either Abquhbah or Naja Salaheem to improve their standing within her mercenary company.

Rank-up points can be checked by talking to Abquhbah and clicking the Mercenary Assessments option.

After ranking up, any excess rank-up points beyond 25 are lost, and the player must accumulate another 25 rank-up points to gain another promotion.

Rank Quest Start NPC

Ranking up to Captain

Unlike the other ranks, the Captain Promotion does not rely upon rank-up points. Instead, this quest is offered once a mercenary has successfully completed all 50 main assaults and all of the Treasures of Aht Urhgan Missions. Players initially enter their mercenary company at Private Second Class, and through successful completion of assault missions can rise as high as Captain.

Having the Captain rank confers certain benefits:

To accept an assault mission, talk to the appropriate NPC in the Commissions Agency while possessing an Imperial Army I.D. Tag. View the current mission list and select a mission in order to obtain Assault Orders for that mission.

Any mission at the player's current rank or below will be offered to the player. For example, a Private First Class will be able to attempt any mission with rank PFC or PSC. A Superior Private will be able to attempt those missions as well as any mission with rank SP. Players ranked First Lieutenant will have access to all 50 assault missions.

Additional Assault Missions

Nyzul Isle

Instead of taking on the specific objectives laid out by the Empire in the other five traditional assault areas, players may also accept commissions to investigate the mysterious Nyzul Isle for the opportunity to acquire rewards unique to these assaults. Like other assault missions, accepting a commission for Nyzul Isle Investigation (set up for level 75 players) or Nyzul Isle Uncharted Area Survey (set up for level 99 players) requires an Imperial Army I.D. Tag. There is no minimum Assault Rank requirement and Assault Points are not awarded for completion, although Nyzul Isle does have its own unique credit system in the form of Nyzul Tokens which can be used to purchase temporary items within the assault area.

Also like other assault missions, players receive 1 rank-up point per successful investigation (and an extra 4 for the first time the zone is completed), as long as the party leaves Nyzul by choosing to leave rather than letting the time limit expire.

To accept commissions for either of these assaults, speak to Sorrowful Sage in the Commissions Agency. Further details on Nyzul Isle can be found at the Nyzul Isle Investigation and Nyzul Isle Uncharted Area Survey pages.

Monthly Adventurer Campaigns

There is one type of campaign that may run any given month.

Nyzul Isle Uncharted Area Mysterious Item Campaign



Ashu Talif Assault

After completing Aht Urhgan Mission 18 (Passing Glory), Halshaob in Nashmau (H-10) will seek to hire accomplished mercenaries in order to investigate the Ashu Talif.

There are three repeatable assaults:

Note: You can only undertake one assault per Earth day and Ashu Talif Assaults do not require an Imperial Army I.D. Tag and do not reward players with Assault Points or Rank-Up Points.
