[edit] Map mechanics
Golden Gates is a Priest Annihilation match, meaning the objective is to wipe out the other team and their priest.
- Every two minutes, players will resurrect at their Priest if it is alive.
[edit] Layout
Golden Gates is simply a square walkway with a res shrine on each side, and a bridge in the middle. In front of each base is a door and Gate Lock which closes off a corner of the walkway. Most teams use the square pathway to "Priest Swap" - that is - walking to each others priest, killing it, then proceeding as if it were a normal Annihilation Map.
Anomaly.Players can shoot projectiles through doors ONLY when they are closed, and not when they are open.
[edit] Rewards
- The winning team receives Fame points based on their consecutive wins.
- The winning team receives 400 Balthazar Faction for winning, and an extra 100 for a Flawless Victory.
- The map after Golden Gates is The Courtyard, however, it is very highly possible to skip to The Antechamber or even The Hall of Heroes during hours when almost nobody plays.
[edit] Notes
- Prior to the July 20th, 2007 update Golden Gates was named Dark Chambers.
