An increased level in a faction will yield account-wide bonuses for the said faction. Factions will also play an important role in upcoming updates.

changedPolling BoothsAs an indie developer, the most important thing to me is community say. There are now polling booths around the island of Arcadius, Where players can vote on future content updates, changes, and adjustments to the game. Players can only vote once per account per poll. But they will receive in-game gold for casting their vote. You will be able to see in real-time what the community wants or doesn't want.
