Relics

Relics are alliance-wide trophies that a small number of alliances hold at any one time — there are only three in play, one of each type below. Holding one is a steady WarHonor bonus for every kingdom in your alliance, and contributes to your alliance's standing on the Relic leaderboard used by Domination Points.

Relics belong to the alliance, not to whichever player originally found or stole one — there is no single owner to track down anymore.

There are three relic types, each with one instance currently in play:

To go after a relic, land the matching hit (attack / arson / sabo) on any kingdom belonging to the alliance that currently holds it — not just whichever kingdom originally triggered it.

• Every qualifying hit builds your alliance's chance of stealing that relic. The bigger the target kingdom's share of its own alliance's total land, the more that hit is worth — going after the holding alliance's biggest kingdom is far more effective than picking off a small one.
• Hitting the same kingdom a second time for the same relic does nothing extra — only distinct kingdoms hit add to your alliance's chance. Spread your hits across different members of the holding alliance instead of repeating one.
• Every qualifying hit immediately rolls a chance to steal the relic on the spot, weighted by your alliance's accumulated chance so far this holding period — there's no waiting for a separate "raid" event.
• If one of your own alliance-mates already hit a particular kingdom for this relic, hitting that same kingdom yourself doesn't add anything further — the credit is per alliance, not per player, so coordinate who's hitting whom.
• Other alliances going after the same relic doesn't hurt your own chances or reset anything — your alliance's progress only depends on which distinct kingdoms your alliance has hit.

Every tick, holding relics pays out to every kingdom in the holding alliance:

Relics also feed the Domination Points Relic leaderboard (weighted 20%): every kingdom in the holding alliance earns Relic score each tick for each instance their alliance holds.

Your alliance's current relic count shows up in a few places:

• Your Alliance Home page
• Any alliance's Alliance Info page
• The Strongest Alliances leaderboard, marked with a star
