Overview
The Noble's Road introduces a standalone game mode with its own leaderboard, offering a fresh challenge for those seeking glory. Players compete for rank by actively challenging opponents or passively defending their position. Battles are fought in intense PvP duels with no limit on Ancient Power, ensuring every match is a true test of strategy and strength. Once registered, your formation locks in, serving as both your attack force and defensive line. Climb as high as you can and hold your ground to etch your name into legend and claim prestigious rewards.
Leaderboard β Top 100 and Beyond
The leaderboard for The Noble's Road is divided into distinct brackets, each offering unique rewards and progression milestones. The top 100 competitors are showcased in a dedicated list, displaying their position, in-game name (IGN), and Ancient Power. This elite list highlights the most skilled commanders and serves as a benchmark for all challengers aiming for the top.
Beyond the top 100, ranks are grouped into broader brackets without specific rank positions. These brackets follow a progression from Wood, Stone, Bronze, Silver, Gold, and up to Platinum, with each bracket divided into multiple tiers, such as Wood 2, Silver 5, or Gold 1. Higher-tier placements within a bracket hold greater prestige, but advancing to the next bracket offers even greater rewards. For example, Gold 1 outranks Gold 5, but it still falls behind Platinum 10. This structure provides a clear and motivating path for players to climb as they strive for greater recognition and rewards.
Battle for Supremacy
Battles in The Noble's Road are fought 8 vs 8, free from any Ancient Power limits. Unlike the standard "Ranked" mode, units in this mode operate independently, allowing players to equip them with their strongest gear. With no cap on Ancient Power, every player has the chance to create their most formidable army and prove themselves as the mightiest commander in Altea.
To issue a challenge, players will need a ticket. Tickets regenerate over time, are capped at a maximum, and can also be purchased in the shop. Challenges pit players against the defending armory of an opponent, controlled by AI. Victory swaps the challengerβs position with their opponent on the leaderboard, while a loss leaves both positions unchanged.
Defending requires no tickets or player action β your setup defends automatically. Only higher-ranked opponents can be challenged, and the game provides a list of available targets. Players can reroll the list of opponents a limited number of times to find a suitable match. Unlike other modes, The Noble's Road has no seasonal reset, so every rank you earn is yours to keep β unless someone takes it from you.
Rewards & Earnings
Players can earn valuable rewards as they climb The Noble's Road leaderboard, with opportunities available at every tier β from the lower brackets all the way to the coveted top 1 position. Rewards are distributed through brackets, each offering a chance to earn "Cursed Crystals." These crystals can be earned up to a set maximum, at which point further earnings will stop. Players can claim their accumulated crystals at any time, giving them full control over when to cash in their progress.
The higher your rank, the greater your hourly earnings and maximum reward cap. This means that every step up the leaderboard not only brings prestige but also unlocks greater potential rewards.
In addition to Cursed Crystals, each battle fought in The Noble's Road grants players $CGO based on their performance, rank, and match outcome. Unlike the "Ranked" mode, the $CGO earnings in The Noble's Road operate independently and may be lower. This ensures that every match still holds value, no matter the outcome, while maintaining the competitive spirit of the game.
