v.98 - Cake vs. Pie 2: Winner Bake All
New Events
Cake vs. Pie Town Battles 05.26.2011 06.29.2011
Lv.10 and up
Cake vs. Pie is hosted in Henesys, Orbis, Magatia, and Leafre. In these towns, you can find Cake Boss Daniel and Pie Lord Tiara. Talk to one of them once a day to be randomly assigned to the Cake faction or the Pie faction. After being assigned to a team, collect either Cake Pieces or Pie Pieces and turn them in to your factions leader in order to fill up the meter in one of the four towns. Cake Pieces and Pie Pieces are dropped by monsters, are tradable, and can be collected by members of either faction. Once either faction fills a towns meter to 100%, an invitation is sent out to all members of each faction to join the battle for control of that town. The invitation will appear as a red envelope with gold trim above your characters head. Please keep in mind that you will not receive the invitation if you are in certain places, such as the Cash Shop or MTS. After accepting the invitation, you will be sent to a waiting room, then when the timer runs down, everyone will be divided into team of up to five and sent to a battle field instance. The teams are made regardless of if they are currently in a party or expedition, and when enough players are available, teams will be balanced by level. The faction that fills up the meter first will be the attack team, and the other faction will be the defense team.
Attack Team: Destroy the barricade in the bottom right of the map. You can attack the barricade directly or use regular attacks on the Monster Summoning Sack in the top left in order to call forth hordes of monsters to attack the barricade for you. You can also purchase a Summoning Sack in the Cash Shop which sends out a stream of several monsters when usedbe aware that you cannot use another one of these until all the monsters summoned with the previous one are defeated.
Defense Team: Defend the barricade from the monsters summoned by the attack team. As the barricade is damaged, it will occasionally drop icing piecesthese can be picked up and dropped in front of the red and blue machines behind the barricade. The blue machine will create a small field of ice to slow down the monsters. The red machine will create a small field of fire to damage any monsters or characters that walk through it. Keep an eye out for members of the Attack Team who might try to steal your icing pieces! Additional monster defense can be acquired by using Mini Barricades, which can be purchased in the Cash Shop. When you use a Mini Barricade, be aware that you cannot use another one until the previous one is destroyed.
After the team battles are complete, talk to your faction leader in the exit room in order to receive the appropriate amount of 6th Anniversary Insignias and to return to town. The faction that wins the most battles will gain control of the town where the battle was activated for one hour.Controlling the town grants your faction a discount on many Use items sold in the towns general store, and it grants your faction 10% bonus EXP when defeating monsters in the region of the controlled town. If the battles result in a draw, then neither team will win insignias or control of the town.
