 ==Rites ==
 Some missions are referred to as '''rituals'''. There are many rites available on the Bark (''The Majestic Garden'', ''The Kincher'', ''The Homin Crafting'', etc.) that allow you to obtain various benefits, from improving your character's characteristics to improving his crafting skills. The status of your character's progress in performing the rites can be viewed in your encyclopedia (Shift+E then ENCYCLOPEDY). Note that your character can only start performing the rite itself if he has previously completed a few missions, which, if he fails to complete them, he can resume after a period of latency.
 ==Apartments==
 Once you are a subscribed player, your avatar may purchase an apartment.

+Outposts are located in most regions, both above and below Atys, Almati Woods being the exception. Outposts can be conquered by a guild, and will produce one type of special outpost material when a drill is placed on them. This outpost material can be used in special receipts to produce items with improved stats or properties compared to the standard armours, tools or weapons.
 There are currently no "working" outposts located below Atys.

-Every day or so these produce a single type of material in accordance to the level of the area around the site.

 Every now and then the drill produces higher quality or lower quality materials  than normal.
 The OP itself cannot store any mats, so a GH must be owned by the guild prior to construction of the drill.

+Outposts' thresholds decrease with time and within 6 months it decreases down to a value between 3 and 5 (depending on region and outpost), representing the lowest number of rounds it takes to win ownership.
 Phase one of battle is the attack phase, where the respawning NPC guards are on the side of the current owners.
-The second phase is the defence phase, usually 4-5 rounds.
+If the 1st phase is successful (the number of rounds won by the attacker exceeds the threshold), then a 2nd, phase will be held between 24 and 48 hours later where the current owner is the attacker. In this 2nd phase, the guards are on the side of the attacker and the number of rounds won from the first and 2nd phase by the guild which wants to take over the ownership of the outpost must exceed 12 to successfully take over ownership of the outpost.
-Guards are on the other side then.
+Each phase consists of 12 rounds of battle, each lasting 5 minutes. With each of the 12 rounds the number of NPC guards spawned increases. And a round is won by the attacker if all NPC guards are killed within the 5 minute window.
 There are announcements of who won each round, and then the wins/losses are tallied at the end of the battle to decide who gets control of that outpost.
