“The Stronghold Marauders event pits guilds against hordes of enemies in order to protect reward caches spread around the exterior of the guild’s stronghold,” Senior Content Designer Charles Gray writes. “Fighting will increase in ferocity with each wave of enemies sent to steal your rewards and enemies will occasionally bring a few surprises to catch unobservant guilds off-guard. Every five waves, there’s a brief respite in the attacks when guilds can elect to take their rewards and retreat into their stronghold, or they can signal for more carts to come and add additional rewards. However, additional rewards also result in yet tougher enemies being enticed to come and attempt to steal not only the new rewards, but the existing ones as well.”
Naturally, there are nice rewards for guilds and guild members who participate, including 600 influence once per week. Unguilded peeps, looks like you’re outta luck.
