The interface for guild claiming upgrades.

Available upgrades and tier progress is displayed in a panel by clicking the objective map icons or talking to quartermasters.

• 20px Automatic Upgrades improve the structures' gates, walls, guards, supply depots, and bring additional siege weapons and services to the location
  • Each objective has 3 tiers: Secured, Reinforced, and Fortified objective upgrade levels. They occur after having delivered or received a certain number of dolyak caravans
  • Upgrades available to objectives depend on the objective type: Camp, Tower, Keep, Castle
• 20px Guild Claiming allow guilds to claim an objective, allowing unique effects to be slotted and activated in the location
  • Each upgrade must be unlocked in the War Room to gain access to the scribe recipe, craft each schematic, processed through the Assembly Device, and then slotted into the interface to activate once available
  • There are 3 tiers for the upgrades, tier I unlocks 10 minutes after claiming and holding the objective, tier II after 30 minutes and tier III after 60 minutes
  • Any player with sufficient guild permissions may slot an upgrade into its define tier, and the schematic of the upgrade is consumed from the war chest of the player's guild.
  • Types of upgrades:
    • Improvements — passive bonuses that improve gates, walls, and provide bonus effects to allies
    • Tactics — active bonuses that can be triggered by the objectives' tactivators
  •  Guild Objective Auras are unlocked effects that passively increase allies' attributes and other effects while in the area of a claimed objective. Each effect is unlocked in tiers, maintaining the bonuses of the previously unlocked effects. The effect can be doubled by using the improvement Presence of the Keep.
