The changes made to the faction war since patch 1.37:
1. The teams will be evenly balanced so that both Zhuang and Shao will have the same number of participants.
2. The faction that has more players will be reduced to match the opposing faction''s number of participants. (For example, if Zhuang : 100, Shao : 200, Shao will be reduced to 100.)
3. It will be first come, first served basis for the faction with more players. The players that entered earlier will have priority over players who entered later. Ones who enter too late can be kicked due to the imbalance.
4. Players will be cut off during the one minute period before the actual war starts.
5. After the faction war, players are going to be warped to each faction’s district instead of Cave of Ruin.
6. Lost faction will also be rewarded with Fortune Case.
