Wars

Wars are basically countries your's is currently beefing with. Each war has different battles.


Battles

Battles are what you see on the bottom of the map. They are also shown on the map by red flashings indicator dots. The winner of a battle takes control of the reagion the battle takes place in.

Health

Above is a typical Battle page. Defending and Attacking are done by pressing on their respective buttons. Upon pressing them, you will deal damage according to your stats, weapon and ammo type. As the same, you will take damage but it is possible to negate damage to reduce the amount of damage taken by using armour wich offers protection (sheild icon). Higher the protection points, the less damage you take.

Food

You can also eat food to replenish some of your health. Each food item replenishes different percentages of your maximum health. Pills do not replenish your health but they offer a massive attack buff for 8 hours but debuffs you by the same amount for 15 hours once the 8 hour buff ends. *Note: Each time you eat, you will lose one hunger point.

Ground and Ticks

The mountain icon represents how much ground each side has aquires. A side gains ground by having the most damage at the end of a tick. In this image, there are 46s remaining in the tick. Therefore, as long as USA holds on to their lead, they will get +2 ground points.

The number of ground points gained by winning each tick increases with the total number of ground points in the round.

Rounds

Each battle consists of 2 rounds. If the two rounds are won by different sides, a third tie-breaker round may take place.

Orders

You can see two scope-like icons on the top of the two sides. These are orders. They show which countries and MUs support each side. These icons may also appear on the battle card for you. This means your MU/ Country has a battle order to suport that side. The colour of the order icon denotes the priority which your country / MU gives to the battle.


Wepons and Ammo

With all that out of the way, let's get to some fun stuff. WEPONS!

There are 6 rarities in this game. Them being Common (Grey), Uncommon (Green), Rare (Blue), Epic (Purple), Legendary (Yellow) and Mythic (Red).

As in any game, higher the rarity, the harder it hits!
The common wepon, the knife doesnt use any ammo but every other does. Ammo, ranging from Uncommon to Epic, increases your attack percentage. Uncommon by 10%, Rare by 20% and Epic by 40%.


Looting

You may have noticed that you have gotten a few loot cases after hitting in battle a couple of times. As of v0.24.3-beta, the looting system works like this. Each 1% you have on loot chance gives you a 1% chance to get a normal loot case and a 0.01% chance to get an elite case instantly. These chances depend on both the loot chance and percision stats as missed shots do not count towards looting. This is also one of the main ways War Mode players make money, by selling the cases they gain.


Rewards

For each round and battle, there is a prize pool. The prizes are distrubuted among the players with the higest damage on how valuble the prizes are. Each time the purple bar fills, better items are added to the prize pool.


Skills and Builds

I recommend using the Build Tool in https://warera-intel.vercel.app/ to optimize your build and skills according to your level and budget. *Note: make sure to have some skill points in companies if you want to keep on using them as you must wait 7 days to reset your stats again.


Tactics

DO NOT RUSH to deal all the damge you can. I recommend you watch the damage bar and deal damage so that your side sits a solid 5k-20k damage infront. Remeber, its the ground points that matter, not the damage to win a round. However, if you are asked by someone from your country or MU to do otherwise, follow their instructions.
