The only fortress is in Jangan?

The only fortress is in Jangan?

I am pretty sure there are at least 5-8 fortresses throughout the map on each server.

Jangan Fortress
Dowhang Fortress
Hotan Fortress
Samar Fortress
Const Fortress
- Control City Taxes (i.e. blacksmith, grocery, etc)
-- Ranging from -20% or +20%.
--- Set only on Saturday's (after the war on friday)

The above are the CITY Fortresses. The TRADER Fortresses would have to be near around the Special Goods area and other areas like ferries.

Trader Fortresses include,
- Special goods taxes
- Ferry taxes
- Tunnel taxes
- Boat/Flight taxes
(i.e. any form of paid transporation).

Has anyone ever seen actual footage?

This thing is out in kSRO , shouldn't there be videoes that they have made about this thing? =x

Post by **Doron** » Wed Dec 05, 2007 11:27 am

There will be no owner. The first guild that goes into the castle and destroys the heart becomes the owner, until the next guild comes in and takes the heart of the castle. This continues until the time is up.

NOTE: Once the castle heart is destroyed, everyone is teleported out of the castle EXCEPT for the new owners. Then all the gates and towers are automatically re-built. Which means the attackers MUST destroy the gates and towers again before destroying the heart of the castle.

They do contain on Korean fansites and resource sites, but they are not on youtube they are usually hosted on private servers. I did see one ages ago, when kSRO first got the update on a German site, but i dont think that site is running at the moment.

Omg in the 3rd video. If you guys go to the location where he enters the portal to the fortress you will see that the Cursor changes to the planet..like you are using the portals in towns. I always wondered what that was gonna be for since I was lvl 10 or something.

Anyone else seen it?

Incorrect. Those big hammers are used to help destroy gates and towers at a faster rate. They are like "special" weapons used to destroy buildings.

how much health does the one ni the middle hav?

Not to sure, but a few million no doubt. Its kind of like trying to kill ISY or LORD YARKAN, but with no spawns (except tonnes of enemies stopping you and probably a tonne of summoned mercs or monsters).

I wonder if the only fortress we'll be getting is the Jangan One because i haven't even seen pics of Hotan Samarkand or CT's fortresses...

The castle isnt on the maps, you teleport using special teleporters to the specific castle you wish to take over or battle within.

Please can someone making this clear and easy for me. I dont understand a damnet thing about the update. What is taxes ? Fortress ? Wtf ? I've read it on silkroadonline.net but i still not get it..

Fortress is like a castle which can tbe taken over by a guild/union for a week or more (so long as they can defend it the next Friday).
The winners of the fortress can control taxes in the specific city, ferries or other NPC related purchases.
If the tax rate is 20% and a normal NPC item is worth 10,000 gold - it now becomes 12,000 gold, with 2,000 gold going to the guild/union holding the castle. Generally speaking the owners of the fortress (or castle) tend to make a lot of money (gold) from players buying potions, lucky powders, NPC weapons, NPC armour, transports, pills and so on.

Lets assume in one week HOTAN receives about 100mil transactions. If the owner of the castle for HOTAN set the taxes for 20% they will receive 20mil for that week. Now thats assuming the town gets 100mil for that week. Which in my opinion is really low. Infact HOTAN in servers like XIAN would receive more than 1 billion gold transactions from NPC's (ie. transpots, pots, etc) per week. Which means guild owners would get about 200mil a week from taxes.

So your saying the guild owner gets 200m or it gets spread around the guild members that participed?
