Civil Unrest

Civil Unrest: Velika (CU), occasionally Guild Wars is weekly PvP event in TERA. It happens every Sunday (17:00 German time on Mystel) and lasts maximum of two hours.

Event first took place on EU servers 24th September 2016. First event on NA failed.

Civil Unrest takes place in special area, Velika of the Past, accessible from Velika by talking to NPC Brahaem. Area is optimized for mass PvP. All characters use same costume, no decorations or shape changers and there's only one allowed mount. Optimized graphics can be turned off in the options.

CU originally took place on are size of Velika Outskirts and city itself. Starting place for all players was Docks on beach of Inner sea. Map also had some open areas east of city. Since January 2019 PVP patch area was restricted to city itself.

Any guild over level 20 can build a tower in area for weekly event. Tower blueprints cost 1480 guild gold.

To build a tower you a guild need to complete all weekly guild quest and cap Valderon tokens. Character who builds the tower needs correct permission or be a guild master. Guild also needs to have least 5 members with character's level over 65 online and inside CU when it starts or guild tower auto-destructs when event starts and they won't get reward. To win the CU guild must defend their tower and destroy other guilds' towers. Score depends on tower and player kills. If you happen to die in the war zone, you can respawn near your guild’s tower, or the in starting area (if tower is destroyed).

Winners get honour and glory, also Tanner lion mount for one week (speed 280, but useable in CU area too). Top 3 guilds get golden, silver and bronze lining on their guild icon on title.
