| | | | |
| − | Some maps in the core of Phoenix are so called Zone Control maps. The players of a faction can take control of such maps by starting a timer and defeating any enemies that comes to defend during that time.
| + | ZC domination is a system, that resolves zone ownership contest over a series of 4 fight opportunity rounds of 1 hour, each within a 6 hours frame (so always 4 per 24 hours, that is full domination cycle), shifting randomly for (-1, 0, +1) hours each round (but staying within the given window). |
| | | | |
| − | During the timer, various actions (shooting/killing/healing) is rewarded with a score, and the combined score of all players in each faction is displayed as a server message as the faction score. The faction that started the timer receives 50 score to begin with, and as soon as another eligible team enters, they receive 1 score. From the moment that two eligible teams are present, the "last team standing" will take control of the zone. If, when the timer runs out, two or more teams are still alive, the team with the most score will win.
| + | Each fight opportunity is a ZC round, during which zone is contestable. Participating factions get ZC score by holding flags within a period of time (as per regular current ZC rules), after ZC is over the domination points pool is distributed over participating factions weighted on their ZC score. |
| | | | |
| | + | Domination points pool is calculated as >maximum< of 2 values: |
| | + | - 10 * number of players in largest team; |
| | + | - 20 * number of players in second largest team. |
| | | | |
| | + | Examples are: 20 vs 0 - 200 points, 20 vs 5 - 200 points; 20 vs 10 - 200 points; 20 vs 15 - 300 points; 20 vs 20 - 400 points, 20 vs 30 - 400 points. |

| − | == Starting Zone Control ==
| + | Victory in a Domination cycle (that is series of 4 rounds over 24 hours) is achieved by a faction which has most of previous_cycle_points / 2 + current_cycle_points, meaning that half of current cycle total points carry over to the next cycle. |
| | | | |
| − | === The Maps ===
| + | Points for any given cycle are calculated as a sum of points of cycle rounds. Worth noting that "Summary" tab in Domination Details window gives you not current cycle sum, but exact summary that will be used for defining a victor (which is previous_cycle_points / 2 + current_cycle_points). |
| | | | |
| − | In it's current shape, the Phoenix core consists of 25 maps. 12 of these are Zone Control maps:
| + | Each round in cycle has its corresponding number (1 to 4), and in case noone has contested a zone in a given round defender gets ZC domination points similar to a value they had for that same round in the previous cycle. |

| − | === Requirements ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | On each Zone Control map, there is a flag which, when interacted with, allows a group of players to start the Zone Control process. Different maps may have different requirements for starting the Zone Control: Gear (equipped armor and equipped weapon), player level and number of players are the things checked for. The current requirements for the zone control maps are currently all set to the same thing: no weapons required, no armor required, no minimum level required, need at least 4 players. As with everything, this is subject to be changed in the future.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | During Zone Control, a player is considered '''Eligible''' if he meets the requirements of the Zone Control map.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === The Timer ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | When Zone Control is started, a server message will appear and a timer of 20 minutes is started. The server message shows the amount of time left, and the '''score''' (see below) of each currently participating faction. The faction with the highest score when the timer stops will take control of the zone. The team that starts the Zone Control is awarded with 50 score to begin with, and as soon as an opposing team enters the map, they are given 1 score.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | == Zone Control Score, Fame and Reputation ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | During Zone Control, every ''eligible player'' (a player that meets the requirements) of a ''participating faction'' (a faction that has enough eligible players currently in the Zone) will receive a personal '''Score''' whenever performing one of the following actions:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Inflicting damage on eligible enemies. 0.1 score/dmg dealt. Bleed damage counts as 0.5 damage.
| + | |
| − | * Crippling eligible enemies. 10 score/cripple.
| + | |
| − | * Killing an eligible enemy. 50 score/kill.
| + | |
| − | * Giving first aid to an eligible team mate. 0.1 score/dmg healed.
| + | |
| − | * Healing the limb of an eligible team mate. 10 score/limb healed.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The score awarded is furthermore modified by the player who is shot/healed: +2% per level above 1, +50% per tier 3 item equipped, +0.1% for each score of the target.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The '''Team Score''' is the combined score of all players of a faction during a Zone Control action. It is displayed in the server message, and if both teams are still alive at the end of the timer, the team with the highest score will win.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Fame ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The Score earned by a player during Zone Control is remembered after each action as '''Fame'''. You can view your personal fame in the character sheet, under the karma tab. After each action, you get 10% of your score from that action as Fame. Fame currently has no significance, other than certain bragging rights.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Your private score is made visible if you have the awareness perk, and it shows for any player with 50 score or more.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Reputation ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | During Zone Control, you will not receive the usual reputation penalties or rewards from shooting other players. ''So long as a player has less than 50 score'', he may be shot and killed without any reputation loss (or gain) whatsoever, regardless of faction. This allows a team to appropriately punish any suspected scouts, or people who try to loot without having done participated in the action.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Shooting a friendly player with more than 50 score will bring the usual reputation penalties.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Reputation (as well as XP and caps) will be rewarded when the Zone Control has ended, and the rewards are based on your personal performance (score). See below.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | == Ending Zone Control ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The last team standing will generally win the action and take control of the zone. The only exception to this is if the timer runs out first, in which case the team with the highest score will win.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Rewards ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Every player that participated in the Zone Control (achieved a personal score of at least 1) will receive a reward of Caps, XP and reputation with the participating factions. The reward is based directly on the personal score of each player and so it is individual. Caps are spawned directly in one of the lockers in the player's private room in his faction.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The caps and reputation skills are further modified by the player's [[Persuasion]] skill. Caps and reputation rewards are multiplied by Persuasion/500.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The rewards (subject to change):
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ''If your faction won:''
| + | |
| − | *XP: 10*score
| + | |
| − | *Caps: 4*score
| + | |
| − | *Reputation with your own faction: +score
| + | |
| − | *Reputation with enemy faction: -score/4
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ''If your faction lost:''
| + | |
| − | *XP: 10*score
| + | |
| − | *Caps: 2*score
| + | |
| − | *Reputation with your own faction: +score/2
| + | |
| − | *Reputation with enemy faction: -score/8
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Looting phase ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | After a Zone Control action is concluded, there will be a short "looting phase", during which Zone Control can't be restarted on that map. Currently this only lasts for 30 seconds, but this is subject to change.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | During the looting phase, there are no reputation penalties or rewards for other players, regardless of their fame, score or level. This is so that you can punish freeloaders or others trying to steal loot.
| + | |
ZC domination is a system, that resolves zone ownership contest over a series of 4 fight opportunity rounds of 1 hour, each within a 6 hours frame (so always 4 per 24 hours, that is full domination cycle), shifting randomly for (-1, 0, +1) hours each round (but staying within the given window).
Each fight opportunity is a ZC round, during which zone is contestable. Participating factions get ZC score by holding flags within a period of time (as per regular current ZC rules), after ZC is over the domination points pool is distributed over participating factions weighted on their ZC score.
Domination points pool is calculated as >maximum< of 2 values:
- 10 * number of players in largest team;
- 20 * number of players in second largest team.
Examples are: 20 vs 0 - 200 points, 20 vs 5 - 200 points; 20 vs 10 - 200 points; 20 vs 15 - 300 points; 20 vs 20 - 400 points, 20 vs 30 - 400 points.
Victory in a Domination cycle (that is series of 4 rounds over 24 hours) is achieved by a faction which has most of previous_cycle_points / 2 + current_cycle_points, meaning that half of current cycle total points carry over to the next cycle.
Points for any given cycle are calculated as a sum of points of cycle rounds. Worth noting that "Summary" tab in Domination Details window gives you not current cycle sum, but exact summary that will be used for defining a victor (which is previous_cycle_points / 2 + current_cycle_points).
Each round in cycle has its corresponding number (1 to 4), and in case noone has contested a zone in a given round defender gets ZC domination points similar to a value they had for that same round in the previous cycle.
