The Persian Hideout Hunt will provide the ultimate test for your army. While the Persian Hideout Hunt Tournament is on, you must collect Hideout Articles, enter Hideouts, and eliminate the Persian Hordes who dwell within them. The more Hideouts you clear, the better your rewards will be, and the higher you will climb in the Rankings.
Note that this Tournament is available to players at Level 40 and above who have built both the Tholos and the Oracle.
You will earn Tournament Points when you:
- Clear Persian Positions
- Enter Persian Hideouts
- Clear Hideouts of enemies
When the Tournament begins, Hideout Articles will become available as Rewards for conquering Persian Positions and completing Tournament Tasks.
Entering and Clearing Hideouts
Once you have collected a set of five Hideout Articles, you will be able to enter a Persian Hideout and engage the enemy.
To clear a Hideout, you will need to successfully attack or defend it. Having done so, you must once again collect a set of five Hideout Articles before you can enter the next one. Bear in mind that once you choose to attack a Hideout you cannot switch to defending it, and vice versa.
You can only enter one Hideout at a time, and Hideouts can only be entered sequentially.
If you clear the twentieth Hideout, you can collect another set of Hideout Articles, enter the twentieth Hideout again, and clear it of enemies to earn extra Rewards and Tournament Points. You may do this up to 40 times.
Remember, even if you have entered the twentieth Hideout the maximum number of times, you can still earn Tournament Points by clearing Positions and Campaign Mission Positions, and you can continue to complete Tournament Tasks to acquire Hideout Articles which can be traded at the Port.
If you enter a Hideout but do not clear it before the Tournament ends, you will still be able to access it from the Oracle. You can continue to fight in the Hideout until you clear it in order to earn Rewards, but you will not receive Tournament Points.
Hideout Articles
Hideout Articles contain the vital information you need to find your way to Persian Hideouts. To enter a Hideout, you will need to collect a set of five Hideout Articles. While the Tournament is on, Articles can be earned as Rewards for victories at Positions as well as for completing Tournament Tasks.
Tournament Tasks will refresh each day at 0:00 UTC. Be warned that when Tasks refresh, incomplete Tasks will be replaced by new ones, and any progress you have made on those Tasks will be lost. If you have completed Tasks with unclaimed Rewards, you will have until the end of the Tournament to claim those Rewards.
You can also trade Hideout Articles with other players at the Port up to five minutes before the end of the Tournament and send them as gifts.
When the Tournament ends, any Hideout Articles you hold will be lost.
Rewards
When you clear a Hideout, you will receive Rewards similar to those you can earn at Persian Positions. You will also receive a Reward from the "Rewards List" in the Tournament tab of the Event window.
The further you progress through the Hideouts, the greater the chance you will receive the most valuable Rewards on the List, and the more Tournament Points you will earn for each Hideout you clear.
Just like with Persian Positions, if you gain little from clearing a Hideout do not despair, for every enemy you defeat increases the odds of a larger payout next time.
Upon completion of the Tournament, you will earn further Rewards if you have amassed enough Tournament Points to take one of the top spots in the Rankings for your League or gain a place in the Supreme League.
