War Room

This article is about the guild upgrade. For the Grothmar Valley point of interest, see War Room (point of interest).

The War Room is an upgrade and location within Guild halls, run and maintained by a War Room Proprietor. It allows guilds to interact with claimed objectives in World versus World, upgrading their defenses with features including auras, tactics and improvements.

Acquisition

The War Room will become available once you have created Workshop Restoration 1.

War Room Restoration 1 will setup a temporary structure in the Guild Hall while work begins on building the full War Room. War Room Restoration 2 will give you access to the full Guild War Room.

Locations
