In the previous guide, Hold the Fort!, we covered the Disputed Realm basics and the advantages of claiming Forts. Since then, there have been multiple new Forts and numerous additional unique benefits and tactics to cover.
Are Disputed Realm Forts still fresh on your server?
Check out the Hold the Fort guide to acquire more data and the basis of the Disputed Realm.
The link for the guide will be at the bottom of this article!
This guide will follow the Hold the Fort guide and continue to provide updates from Server one as we advance.
Please keep in mind that if you do not see a specific benefit here, it likely was covered in the introductory guide and has not been updated since then. With that in mind, please do continue to use it for reference when needed.
Keep note:
Event Points will NOT accumulate while you are actively holding a Fort.
Event Points will apply AFTER you lose possession of a Fort or the event is completed, whichever comes first.

Fort Changes – Effective as of Kingsglaive Ignis release!
(November 18th, 2020)
Upon the Kingsglaive Ignis Fort event, some modifications with Forts and the Disputed Realm event were made to create a more efficient balance with overall combat and the outcome of future events. They did this by adjusting the number of Forts that players can claim and is on a per-event basis.
The older Forts from the past events will be disabled indefinitely, and now we will have two NEW Forts per event using that corresponding Hero release and the Champion Fort. The Champion Forts have been the same with each event so far.
Also, the personal benefits for the Forts will be increased while the Guild benefits will decrease.
There will be a limit to three Fort types per event.
Fort types:
- Three Hero Forts
- You will need to have the corresponding Hero and the Fort Skill unlocked to claim this Fort.
- One Majestic Fort
- You must hold three of the Hero Forts mentioned above to be able to claim the Majestic Fort.
- Two Champion Forts
- ANYONE can claim this Fort, and these cannot be upgraded.
It is also significant to note that no event points will show in the event while actively holding a Fort. The points from claiming Forts will be applied when you lose your Fort or the event ends, whichever comes first.
Fort Kingsglaive Ignis
(November 20th, 2020)
You may control up to three Fort Kingsglaive Ignis and two Fort Kingsglaive Ignis Champions. When you hold three of the Fort Kingsglaive Ignis Forts, you will then be able to claim a Majestic Kingsglaive Ignis Fort, allowing you to claim up to six Kingsglaive Ignis Forts.
Keep in mind with the new Fort changes that went into effect this event, that you will not be able to claim old Forts anymore, and with this particular event, you may own up to six Forts at the most.
Prerequisites
- Kingsglaive Ignis must be your active hero.
- Hero minimum requirement – level 47
- Kingsglaive Ignis’ Skill Fort Kingsglaive Ignis Unlock I must be unlocked
Strength: Dark Elementals
Weakness: Dark Core Troops
Kingsglaive Ignis Fort Owner Benefits
- 40% Dark Cavalry and Juggernaut Attack, HP, as well as Armor Multiplier
- 100% Max Hero MP Multiplier

Kingsglaive Ignis Fort Guild Benefits
- 1% Dark Calvary and Juggernaut Attack, HP, as well as Armor Multiplier
- 20% Max Hero MP Multiplier

- 100% Dark Fire, Ice, Earth, and Lightening Speciality Resistance
- 200% Max Hero MP Multiplier

- 65% Dark Astral Attack Multiplier
Dark Elemental Speciality Resistance lowers the enemy’s Elementals Multiplier, similar to how Armor Piercing works in a subtraction form.
Your enemy has a 1,734% Dark Fire Elemental Multiplier. You hold three Majestic Kingsglaive Ignis Forts; you are taking off 300% of their multiplier and reducing it to 1,434%; on this Fort alone! The reduction example isn’t including any of the other Specialty Resistance you may already have.
The example above does not reflect real stats and is at random to provide for clarification purposes.
