To avoid forfeiting your event rewards and contribution progress in the Kingshot Holy Sword League, remain in your current alliance for the entire duration of the active competitive cycle. Do not initiate an alliance transfer while the event is running or while final leaderboard rewards are being calculated.

Alliance Lock Restrictions and Reward Eligibility

The Holy Sword League uses an event lockout system tied to alliance membership. When the league is active, switching factions triggers restrictions designed to prevent players from joining top-ranked alliances at the end of a cycle.

Changing alliances during an active league impacts your account in several critical ways:

  • Contribution Freezes: Your individual activity points and cumulative score entries freeze or reset upon leaving your current group.
  • Score Discrepancies: The game tracks performance using your alliance ID at the start of event cycles. Contributions made after a mid-event move generally fail to tally toward your new alliance's cumulative score.
  • Reward Lockouts: Initiating a transfer during an active window or while leaderboards are updating can flag your account as ineligible, disqualifying you from final milestone payouts and end-of-season reward chests.

Because Holy Sword League rewards depend on collective alliance performance metrics rather than portable individual totals, individual score progress does not transfer to a new alliance leaderboard.

Safe Windows for Alliance Migration

If you plan to change alliances, align your transfer with the event schedule to protect your accumulated progress.

Migration WindowAction RequiredOutcome & Risk Level
Pre-EventComplete all alliance moves at least 48 hours before the league begins.Safe: Ensures system registration under the new alliance ID before score tracking starts.
Mid-EventRemain in your current alliance. Do not leave, even if your group underperforms.High Risk: Triggers contribution freezes and forfeits cumulative seasonal rewards.
Post-EventWait until final rewards land in your inventory and the event UI closes.Safe: Clears event lockout rules, allowing free movement without reward penalties.

Strategic Recommendations: Growth vs. Loyalty

When deciding whether to leave a lower-performing alliance for a higher-tier group, evaluate the timing over short-term point gains:

  1. Prioritize Completion Over Migration Mid-Season: The guaranteed rewards from finishing a cycle in a weaker alliance outweigh the potential gains of a mid-season move, as mid-event transfers frequently result in complete reward forfeiture.
  2. Focus on Individual Objectives: If stuck in an inactive alliance during an event window, focus on completing individual event tasks rather than attempting a transfer.
  3. Schedule Alliance Changes in the Off-Season: Initiate alliance applications and departures only after confirming that the Holy Sword League interface has fully closed and all seasonal payouts are claimed.
