How Does Global Territory Control Worrk[]
Types of Control Points[]
Interacting with Control Points[]
Control Points display the flag of the faction that currently controls said object.
Attacking[]
If you wish to capture a Control Point, you have to either slay the NPC Faction Defender or destroy the Keep Door. From there, you have to get rid of all players that do not belong to your own faction. Once that has been done, you can proceed to interact with the Control Point.
As a note, interaction with some Control Points have their own maximum level restriction. For example, a level 50 player cannot capture a Control Point at a Keep in Northfields.
Once you have interacted with the Control Point, you must wait for five minutes around the Control Point to finish capturing it. If you fail to do so, all progress will be reverted and you will need to start over again.
Defending[]
If you wish to defend a Control Point, you can do so by paying attention to the attack notification on the World Map in the case of Keeps. For Flags and Towers it will be broadcasted as a Region message. Just simply slay the attacking player faction to stop the siege.
If, on the other hand, a player has already started capturing the Control Point, one must get rid of all players from the attacking faction, and stop them from getting close to said Control Point. If done successfully, the attack will be foiled and you will retain control for your faction.
Upgrading Keeps[]
You can upgrade your Keep to offer you beneficial and helpful aids to fellow faction members. From local Cloning Facilities, to stronger Door resistances and health. For a detailed list on the resources required for these, see: Keep Door and Keep Lifenet Generator.
More Details[]
Map Icons[]
Flames are added to the icon if that point is under attack or the flag is contested, and a shield is added if the control point has immunity (more on that later). If you mouse over these icons, their names and descriptions will provide additional information about what is going on.
How does a Faction become the dominating Faction?[]
The Faction with the most Control Points is the Dominating Faction. These points are given based on the number of Conflict Towns and Keeps your Faction controls.
How many points is everything worth?[]
Conflict Towns, free-standing Keeps like in Office Park and Feral Boughs (known as Quarantine PvP zone), and the central Keep in The District (FTC zone) are each worth 500 points. The 6 smaller Keeps in The District are each worth 100 points.

What does the dominating Faction get?[]
The Dominating Faction receives a Global Buff to Death Toll, Faction, Experience, and Random AP gained. There is also a boost to crafting and harvesting speeds. And 25% discount from Merchants, Fast Travel and Towing.
What do the Keeps and Faction Control Points in Conflict Towns do?[]
Most Conflict Towns either have 3 Keeps or 3 Faction Control Point flags in them. Holding a flag or a Keep will not directly contribute anything towards Global Territory Control, but it will help your Faction control that Conflict Town, which is what matters for GTC.
What does my Faction get for controlling a Keep?[]
Members of the Faction that own any Keep can place valuable Resource Harvesters around the Keep. Harvesters provide an abundance of resources to the owner and allies in the area. There are also exclusive merchants with limited stock availability that are located in many of the Keeps and Conflict Towns.
