It was a struggle and quite frustrating to win in in the Ragnarok Online Mobile War of Crystals event under the Team Sun bracket. That is because that bracket is where the strongest and top-ranking guilds are categorized and facing three of them is tough.

To recall the event objective, the guild which first manages to collect 5 [Crystal Resources] wins. If after 30 minutes no guild was able to collect 5 [Crystal Resources], then the guild with the most crystals collected wins. If both teams achieved the same number of Crystals, the one which achieved it first will be declared the winner.

Situations can be a two-way or three-way battle starting with the positioning in the MVP area. It is what I think is a crucial part of the gameplay to be successful in the following line of play. Killing 4 MVP monsters gets the guild to craft a Crystal Resource so it is also important to have one party in-charge on it.

As I have observed in the past months battling in this event since the 4th job class was implemented, here are some tips to win more in the ROM War of Crystals.

Be as perfect attendance as possible. More guild members online mean more people resources to work around with the strategic gameplay. I see it that overwhelming other guilds may not work all the time, but it is easier to hold crystal towers if there are more people that defend it.

Assign the parties with the best job combinations to strategic points on the map. There are areas crucial such as the narrow alley that can lock off other guilds from reinforcing to their members in the middle of the map. At least two parties geared with powerful equips and skills that can kill them as quickly as possible. In that way, going through the crystal towers will now have lesser resistance for the main force to occupy.

Strategic Land Protection is the key. To avoid your members getting wipe out by skill-based attacks, get them to step under the Land Protection area as much as possible. Also, find a way for your Royal Guards to fend off the opponent guild’s LP effect. This is again on your guild positioning at the start of the clash, mostly done on the MVP area.

Always carry a Summon Syrup for the party leaders. As what I always hear on the command on Discord, PT leaders are assigned to have this during the crucial part of taking over and controlling the crystal tower territory needed to complete the five crystal resource.

To conclude, having geared to better PVP equipment and has more ways to last in the battlefield i.e. a higher hit point is also essential for the guild to be able to carry out their game plan in winning the War of Crystals Guild vs Guild battle.
