    The “Birthday Cake” spawns every 14 hours

    By using the action items “Scorpion's Mark” and “Serpent's Mark” you can spawn the portal ships, “Scorpion's Mark” and “Serpent's Mark”, which spawn every 10 seconds event ships. (the limit for “Scorpion´s Mark” on maps is 5 and for “Serpent's Mark” 2, when the limit is reached you can´t use that action item)

    The portal event ships spawn following event ships: “Corrupted Remains”, “Twisted Vanguard” and with a small chance “Haunted Conqueror”

    Once you have collected enough Ancient Emblems you are able to access the “Earth, Wind and Fire” group map from the Safe Haven by speaking to Captain Ravenbeard.

    After you choose the role you want to play (Fire, Earth, Air) and the team is full you are teleported to the “Earth, Wind and Fire” group map.

    Goal of the Group map is to protect “The Lighthouse” as long as possible against waves of NPCs.

    When you are teleported to the Group map you receive 5 “Hammer of Elements” which can be used to build Towers (depending on your role: Fire tower, Earth tower or Air Tower) and upgrade the towers (via the quest system, the towers are also quest givers)

    The towers have following effects (beside the normal damage):

    Fire towers:
    • Apply a burning de-buff against the NPCs

    Earth towers:
    • Apply a slowing de-buff against the NPCs

    Air towers:
    • Apply a buff to other towers in zone around the tower which reduced the Reload Speed
    You are rewarded after each wave with Hammer of Elements, Pearls, Crowns, Yulong Coins or Safanad Coins

    The group map ends, when “The Lighthouse” is sunk

    Depending on how many waves “The Lighthouse” has survived you are rewarded with ranking points, ported back to the normal maps and all remaining “Hammer of Elements” are removed from your inventory
