Notable Templates

Original Template Pack

This template pack is also known as Default template. It is a template pack that consists of multiple different templates suitable for various map configurations in terms of size and amount of players. Before generation starts, if this pack is used, one template is randomly selected from all the templates corresponding to the selected configuration. Although extensive, this template pack is believed to be not quite optimized for multiplayer sessions.

Mirror Templates

h3dm1

One of the most popular mirror templates. This template follows a simple gameplan: starting zone > secondary town zone > treasure zone. Treasure zones contain rich rewards, but are often small and lack the most valuable treasures, like Relic artifacts. Connection guards are considered difficult on the first week, but starting from the second week they become an easy goal, thus letting players to pass them and get in contact with their opponents. Although, early contact is not guaranteed due to complicated map topology, so players are forced to clear the treasure zones and conduct spell research, as on XL+U maps. This template is considered to be among the most balanced ones.
