Lockdown Classes: Recon, Guardian and Striker

Lockdown is a devilish duel in King Krogmo's Coliseum where Knights try to eliminate their opponents by standard means-- Swords, Bombs, and Guns. All your weapons are available in this head to head brawl, in which Knights are divided into two teams to score points by taking over capture points or attack damage to opposing team players. The shield function is replaced by a unique "class system", in which causes your shield to be limited, but allowing for special effects! Strikers get a speed bonus, Guardians an area shield, and Recons invisibility.

The cumulative weekly scores for the leaderboard are reset on Sunday.

Game Modes

Lockdown currently has two game modes:

Random Team

Get placed in a random team of up to 6 players, in which your sole purpose is to gain and keep control points to score influence for your team.

Guild Team

Loadouts

Loadouts are a saved combination of your gear, and multiple configurations can be saved for different purposes, including Non-PVP. Loadouts marked for PVP can be changed inside of your base, but can only be edited while in towns such as Haven. There are many purposes for Loadouts, a few examples for assorted loadouts would be: to have specific sets for each specialty, help adapt to your opposing team, or a quick change of defense. Keep in mind the star level of your equipment determines what tier you play in. Having a Non-PVP Loadout is also recommended, as a current issue causes your standard shield to be de-equiped after playing Lockdown, once the match is over and you are returned to Haven.

You may save a Loadout by left clicking "Current Equipment" and choosing Save As. Saved Loadouts cannot be edited or renamed.

Respawning

If you are defeated, you can either instantly respawn by spending energy or you can wait until the timer reaches zero.

If you are defeated you will wait in the rolling respawn queue. All players in the respawn queue will respawn at once after the respawn counter reaches zero. However, during this time you may instead choose to instantly respawn with energy in the same manner as in the Clockworks.

Scoring

Score in Lockdown is gathered via control points, which provide influence. While a control point is captured, it will automatically generate influence for its controlling team. The team with the most influence by the end of the match wins. Control points are captured by standing on them. Enemy controlled control points revert back to neutral before they start to convert to your team. Note that enemies standing on the point will prevent it from being captured! The more control points, the more influence.

More specifically, The amount of points of influence you receive are as follows:

1 Point controlled = 5 points per 10 seconds

2 Points controlled = 10 points/ 10 seconds

and so on. This requires a bit more testing but was found though gameplay in the Forest Lockdown map

Rewards

You pay 200 crowns to enter, like all Krogmo games. Each knight on the winning team receives 280 crowns (or more, if members of the winning team leave before the game ends) and 2 Krogmo Coins; knights on the losing team receive no crowns and only a single Krogmo Coin.
