Castle Siege is the most epic large-scale PvP event in MU Online. Once a week, guilds and their alliances fight for control of the grand castle in the Valley of Loren.

How Castle Siege Works

Castle Siege is a weekly event where guilds compete to become the castle’s ruler. The event is divided into several phases, each with specific rules and objectives:

  • Registration Phase: Eligible guilds sign up to participate and declare themselves as attackers or defenders.
  • Sign of Lord Bidding: Guilds collect and submit Sign of Lord items to qualify for participation. The guilds with the most Signs of Lord are chosen as attackers, with the reigning castle guild as defender.
  • Preparation Phase: The selected guilds get ready, form alliances, and plan strategies for the siege.
  • Castle Siege Battle: During the main event, attackers attempt to break through the castle gates and take control of the Throne Room. Defenders protect the throne and repel the invaders.

Registration & Entry Requirements

  • Guild Master Level: The guild master must be at least level 200 and own the Guild Master Character.
  • Sign of Lord Items: Only guilds that submit enough Sign of Lord items during the registration phase can participate as attackers.
  • Alliances: Each guild may form up to 2 alliances, allowing for massive team battles.
  • Maximum Participants: Up to 100 members per main guild, plus alliance members.
  • Event Schedule: Usually held on Saturdays or Sundays (varies by server), lasting 2 hours. Times are displayed in-game and announced in advance.
  • Entry Location: Enter through Valley of Loren at coordinates (96, 113).

Event Mechanics & Rules

  • Siege Weapons: Attackers use Siege Golems and Catapults to break gates and barricades.
  • Castle Gates & Statues: Defenders can repair gates and activate guardian statues to strengthen defenses.
  • Life Stones: Attackers can place Life Stones as respawn points close to the castle.
  • Switches: Attackers must activate 3 switches inside the castle to unlock the Throne Room.
  • Throne Room: The core objective—occupy the Throne Room by having the guild master (or authorized member) successfully “stamp” the throne. Whoever holds the throne at the end wins.
  • PvP & PK Enabled: All forms of PvP are allowed. Massive battles, skills, and combos rule the castle grounds!

How to Win Castle Siege

The guild/alliance that controls the Throne Room at the end of the siege timer wins Castle Siege and becomes the new Castle Lord.

  • Control Strategy: Focus on holding the switches, defending the Throne Room, and supporting your guild master during stamping.
  • Communication: Use voice chat and well-organized commands to react quickly and coordinate attacks or defenses.
  • Class Roles: Combine strong tanks, damage dealers, and support classes for best results. Use Dark Lords for buffs and summoning, Elves for defensive auras, and Wizards for mass damage.
  • Counter-Attacks: Attackers should try to break through defenses in waves, while defenders focus on choke points and respawn points.

Castle Siege Rewards

  • Zenn & Jewels: All participants get Zenn (in-game currency) and jewels such as Jewel of Bless and Soul for participating and achieving objectives.
  • Castle Lord Privileges: The winning guild master receives the Lords Mix and access to special shops, tax system, and server-wide buffs.
  • Lord Mix Items: The castle guild can craft Lords Mix for exclusive high-end gear and bonuses.
  • Tax Control: The Castle Lord can set tax rates for the in-game shops, generating guild income.
  • Server Buffs: Everyone on the server enjoys increased drop rates and lower taxes while the castle is under good leadership!

Castle Siege Map & Key Areas
