* Players will only receive one page of the Gordian Manifesto per area each week upon completing said area for the first time.

Players who have yet to unlock Frontline can do so by accepting one of the following quests corresponding to their Grand Company:




- Requirements

Time Limit	20 minutes
Required Level	Disciple of War or Magic level 60
Item Level Requirement	Average item level 150 or above
Item Level Sync	Average item level 150

The Say, Shout, Yell, Party, and Alliance chat channels can be used during Frontline. However, players can only see messages from comrades of their own Grand Company.

* When undertaking a duty utilizing item level sync, the item level of any gear exceeding the maximum item level will be adjusted accordingly. Furthermore, materia bonuses will be ignored during PvP encounters, regardless of the item level of gear affixed with materia.
* Players who abandon a Frontline campaign (not including players who join a match in progress or are vote kicked) will receive a penalty. Players so penalized will be unable to register for Frontline campaigns or the Wolves' Den for 30 minutes.
* When participating in a Frontline campaign, players can receive but not send messages via free company and linkshell chat.

- Participating in Seal Rock (Seize)
Players can queue to enter alone, or in a party of up to eight players. Although there are no role restrictions when queuing as a party, all party members must be affiliated with the same Grand Company.

To improve matching efficiency, 72 (three teams of 24) or 24 (three teams of eight) combatants may be matched together depending on the number of available participants.

- Role Requirements
When participating in Frontline campaigns, there are no role requirements or restrictions for parties. Moreover, players can freely change jobs or classes at their Grand Company's landing.
* As with the three main cities, the recast time of skills will not be reset when changing classes or jobs.

- Actions
The effects of certain non-PvP player actions have been restricted in Frontline campaigns.

- Starting Points
The landing point for each team will be randomly assigned from one of three locations.

- Rules of Engagement
During a Frontline seize campaign, players aid their company by retrieving data from Allagan tomeliths and defeating players from opposing teams. The first team to accumulate the required amount of data will be declared the winner, and the remaining teams will be ranked according to their respective ratings.

- Allagan Tomeliths
Seal Rock island is home to ancient relics known as Allagan tomeliths, structures containing data coveted by the three Grand Companies. Players must locate and occupy tomeliths to activate them and extract their data.

- Active and Inactive Allagan Tomeliths
All Allagan tomeliths are inactive at the start of the campaign, and will activate randomly at set intervals. Each tomelith has a limited quantity of data that can be retrieved, and will become inactive once that limit is reached. Inactive Allagan tomeliths will activate at random after a set amount of time has passed. As the campaign progresses, the maximum number of simultaneously active Allagan tomeliths will change.

- Occupying Allagan Tomeliths
Active Allagan tomeliths will be either “Unoccupied†or “Occupied†depending on whether or not a Grand Company has occupied them. If a player occupies an unoccupied tomelith, its status will change from Unoccupied to Occupied. If the tomelith is already occupied by an opposing faction, accessing the tomelith will change its status to Unoccupied. Tomeliths are Unoccupied when they change from inactive to active.
* Allagan tomeliths will become temporarily inaccessible when their status changes.

- Allagan Tomelith Ranks
Allagan tomeliths will activate at one of three ranks: S, A, or B. Although tomeliths have a lower chance to activate at higher ranks, they hold a larger quantity of data that can be retrieved while they are occupied. As the match progresses, tomeliths will have an increased chance to activate at higher ranks.




- Engaging Opposing Teams
By defeating players from opposing teams, players can retrieve data while at the same time decreasing the amount of data the opposing team holds.

- Adrenaline Rush
Adrenaline rush will replace the limit break action during Seal Rock (Seize) campaigns. Unlike the limit break, adrenaline rush is unaffected by the actions of party members, and can be used by single players after filling the adrenaline gauge. It can then be activated using Limit Break located under the General tab of the Actions & Traits interface. The adrenaline rush action performed will depend on your role.

Action	Role	Effect
Aegis Boon	Tank	Temporarily reduces damage taken by all party members by 50%.
Raw Destruction	Melee DPS	Delivers an attack to a single target.
Terminal Velocity	Ranged Physical DPS	Deals unaspected damage to all enemies in a straight line in front of the caster.
Cometeor	Ranged Magic DPS	Deals unaspected damage to all enemies near point of impact.
Empyrean Rain	Healer	Restores 50% of own HP and the HP of all nearby party members, as well as cure all status effects.

Combat rank bonuses will affect the rate at which the adrenaline gauge fills.

Rank	Bonus to Adrenaline
1st	None
2nd	Fills 1.25 times faster
3rd	Fills 1.5 times faster

- Battle High and Battle Fever
Battle High and Battle Fever are buffs awarded for a certain number of consecutive KOs. However, changing classes, logging out, or being defeated yourself will reset the counter towards acquiring either buff.
Players who defeat another player under the effect of battle high or battle fever will be rewarded additional data.

Status	Requirement	Effect
Battle High	Defeat four players consecutively.	Damage dealt increases by 20%, and the adrenaline gauge fills 1.5 times faster.
Battle Fever	Defeat eight players consecutively.	Damage dealt increases by 40%, and the adrenaline gauge fills two times faster.

The following will display on screen when either battle high or battle fever are active:


The following icon will appear next to the name of players under the effect of battle high or battle fever:



- Player Icons
Furthermore, all players engaged in combat, including those experiencing battle high or battle fever will appear on the map and minimap when nearby.

- Retaliation
Incapacitated players will be returned to their Grand Company's landing, where they will be allowed to rejoin combat after a short delay. This will not incur a weakness penalty, but the delay before you can rejoin the battle will lengthen each time you fall.

Furthermore, players will be temporarily invulnerable when leaving their Grand Company's landing during Seal Rock (Seize).

- Mounts
Players are free to use mounts during Frontline campaigns. However, players taking damage while mounted will be inflicted with the Heavy status effect.
* However, flying mounts cannot be used to fly during Frontline campaigns, and two-person mounts cannot be ridden.

- Rewards
All players will receive PvP EXP and Wolf Marks, as well as Allagan tomestones of law and Allagan tomestones of esoterics based on their performance.
