Evony Clash of Civilizations Guide

With the updated on the 15th of January, 2024, Evony released a new event: Clash of Civilizations. This event has a lot to unpack, so sit back, run some vikings, and enjoy as we explore everything there is to know about this event.

Stage One – Assault

Overview

This event is split into two stages, with the first being called Clash of Civilizations – Assault. This stage takes place on your server, and involves you trying to gain as much score as possible. In return, you will receive (poor) rewards, and if you place in the top 25 of your server, you will progress to the next stage – a special battlefield with unique rules where 8 servers battle it out to be victorious, although more on this later.

How to get Scores in Clash of Civilizations?

There are four ways to get scores in Clash of Civilizations:

• Shadow of Dawn: Defeating Shadow of Dawn forces will give you score. These forces can be found across the map and range from level 1-10, and are very easy to kill (like regular monsters). These can only be attacked (solo killed), and it is best to use PVE mechanics.
• Dawn Temple: Found on the world map, defeat these buildings 15 times and it will allow you to occupy it in order to receive score. The higher the occupying troops power, the more score you will gain (lowest occupying power is 50M, highest is 500M). These can be attacked or rallied, and it is best to use PVP mechanics. The spawn of Dawn Temples is announced in world chat. They have a 1200% attack buff, and 900% defense and HP buffs, with a total power of 1.2B.
• Dawn Sanctuary: Found on the world map, defeat this temple 10 times and it will allow you to occupy it in order to receive score. The higher the occupying troops power, the more score you will gain. These can be attacked or rallied, and it is best to use PVP mechanics. You can use a “Dawnbringer’s Order” found in the Light of Dawn Goddess event to summon a Dawn Sanctuary and gain some scores. This costs 70 Antique Crystals.
• Solar Eclipse Stronghold: Found on the world map, defeat this temple 5 times and it will allow you to occupy it in order to receive score. The higher the occupying troops power, the more score you will gain (lowest occupying power is 30M, highest is 300M). These can be attacked or rallied, and it is best to use PVP mechanics. They have a 800% attack buff, and 600% defense and HP buffs, with a total power of 640M.
• Lunar Eclipse Stronghold: Found on the world map, defeat this temple 5 times and it will allow you to occupy it in order to receive score. The higher the occupying troops power, the more score you will gain. These can be attacked or rallied, and it is best to use PVP mechanics.

Please note, that using Rammune on these buildings does work!

*GLITCH* There is currently (15th of Jan) a glitch with these buildings and they are not conquering. Try rally them, and then solo until the last hit, and then rally again.

Rewards

The rewards for each section of this stage of the event can be found below:

Buffs

During Stage One in the Clash of Civilizations event, you can defeat Shadow of Dawn monsters and bosses to receive two buffs: Solar Sight, and Lunar Sight.

Solar Sight

This buff grants you a 300% increase in attack, defense, and HP when attacking, although only one army can be sent out while the buff is effective. The buff is consumed after each attack on any of the Order of Dawn buildings, or players, and can be stacked up to nine times. You can see your current amount of the buff (if present) on the right hand side of your screen.

Lunar Sight

This buff grants you a 300% increase in attack, defense, and HP when defending, although only one army can be sent out while the buff is effective. The buff is consumed after each each defense, and can be stacked up to nine times. You can see your current amount of the buff (if present) on the right hand side of your screen.

Shadow of Dawn Monsters and Bosses

As previously mentioned, there are Shadow of Dawn monsters that range from level 1 – 10 and are extremely easy to kill, although there are also Shadow of Dawn bosses. These are regular bosses, but with the Shadow of Dawn effect – meaning that they too can give you the Lunar Sight and Solar Sight buffs. These bosses also drop Blood of Ares which is great for ascending. The drop rate is quite low, although free Blood of Ares is always welcome.

How to Quickly Find Buildings and Monsters

There is a website called iScout which allows you to enter in your server number and will show you the coordinates of players, subs, barbs, pyramids etc. but for the purpose of this guide – all the buildings and Shadow of Dawn monsters / bosses. This is incredibly useful for quickly gaining score, and ensuring your alliance is first to each building.

iScout does cost, although they offer a free trial. For more information, check out our guide on them here: iScout Guide

Stage Two – Clash of Civilizations Battlefield

Overview

This battlefield brings 8 servers together under unique rules, with 25 players representing each server. To qualify for your server, you must place within the top 25 in stage one of Clash of Civilizations (Assault). This battlefield will last for 2 hours, with a 5 minute grace period at the start. There are some unique twists compared to typical battlefield, such as a 15 minute truce agreement at the start of the battlefield.

Rules

Basic Information

Battlefield Start Time: 10am-12pm server time

Battlefield Length: 2 Hours

Qualify: Place top 25 in Assault

Opponents: 7 enemy servers with similar Assault scores

In-Depth Rules

Players may enter the battlefield at the allocated start time, and will have a 5 minute grace period in their respective Safe Zones. Each server will have five buildings to begin with, and there will be many neutral buildings throughout the map. Players can occupy the neutral buildings, or enemy buildings, in order to earn battlefield scores. Players can also defeat the Order of Dawn buildings (the buildings present in Stage One, Assault) to receive buffs.

At the beginning of the battlefield, players will receive a 15 minute bubble, although players can optionally (after grace period) remove this bubble early by attacking other players or Order of Dawn buildings.

Order of Dawn buildings will be located at fixed positions on the map (like the Phoenix, or Behemoth in BOG for example), and refresh periodically after being killed. Players can occupy these buildings after completely defeating them in order to earn score. Information (passed what was discussed in Stage One) can be found below:

• Dawn Temple: Found on the left side of the map, defeating it will heal 30% of your servers wounded troops, and increase your servers attack, defense, and HP by 150% for 10 minutes. Attacking the Dawn Temple will prevent you from teleporting for 10 minutes, and will grant the players who completely defeat it 3,000 scores.
• Dawn Sanctuary: Found on the right side of the map, defeating it will heal 20% of your servers wounded troops, and increase your server attack, defense, and HP by 100% for 5 minutes. Players who completely defeat it will gain 1,500 scores.
• Solar Eclipse Stronghold: There are four solar eclipse strongholds located throughout the map, defeating one will grant a march size increase of 150% for 10 minutes, and earn 1000 scores.
• Lunar Eclipse Stronghold: There are four solar eclipse strongholds located throughout the map, defeating one will grant a rally capacity increase of 50% for 10 minutes, and earn 1000 scores.
• Empire City: Each server will have an Empire City that can be occupied by players from other servers. The occupier will earn Clash of Civilization scores for doing so. An Empire City will be conquered when it has been occupied for 30 minutes straight by the same server. Each Empire City can only be conquered once, but afterwards you can still occupy it to gain scores. Cannot be attacked for 15 minutes after battlefield starts, although players can reinforce their own one during this time. 40M-120M worth of troop power can earn 3-20 scores per second when conquering an Empire City. Conquering an Empire City will give you a 15% bonus to your total Clash of Civilization scores at the end of the battlefield.
• (Empire) Blessing Tower: Total of 10 Blessing Towers on the map. This will provide a 20% attack and defense buff to your entire server when occupied. It will earn you 500 scores per minute held. Cannot be attacked for 15 minutes after battlefield starts, although players can reinforce their own one during this time.
• Empire Turret: Occupying this Turret attacks the enemy troops in the Empire City in 120 seconds, and continuously attack them every 60 seconds. Occupying it for 1 minute will get you 500 Clash of Civilization scores. Cannot be attacked for 15 minutes after battlefield starts, although players can reinforce their own one during this time. This seems to be a similar mechanic as Throne Tower’s in Throne War.
• (Empire) Rally Hall: Total of 10 Rally Halls on the map. Occupy to increase servers rally capacity by 15%, occupying for one minute will earn 500 score. Cannot be attacked for 15 minutes after battlefield starts, although players can reinforce their own one during this time.
• (Empire) Battlefield Hospital: Total of 10 Hospitals on the map. Occupy to increase servers healing speed by 60%, occupying for one minute will earn 500 score. Cannot be attacked for 15 minutes after battlefield starts, although players can reinforce their own one during this time.
• Temple of Civilization: Located in the center of the Battlefield, occupy to earn score based on troop power. 40-700M troop power can earn between 10-40 scores per second.

There are three new types of Battlefield Buffs available for the Clash of Civilizations battlefield – Solar Sight, Lunar Sight, and an Auxiliary Buff. The Solar Sight and Lunar sight buffs are the same as in Stage One, but the Auxiliary Buff is a buff that all players will receive periodically in which a player will receive troops in a certain proportion to their current troop amount, this proportion being in relation to the player’s Server battlefield ranking.
