Ninja: Create Realm Domination player guide: Flags

2026-10-08T12:28:37Z

Create Realm Domination player guide: Flags

New page

A flag starts a claim for your Realm team. Carry one to begin a siege, or spend one to plant in an eligible region. You can help an existing battle without carrying a flag yourself.

== Earn your first flags ==

# Turn on '''Take part''' on the Realm Domination website page.
# Wear your working updated DoD HUD and remain alive.
# Visit qualifying system land. The current flag-earning location is '''Uphill''', available through the [https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Uphill/52/64/36 DoD Second Life location].
# Make sure your DoD character meets the system-land reward requirements, including a verified Discord link. If your HUD requests Discord verification, follow its instructions; the [https://discord.descendantsofdarkness.com/ DoD Discord link] is also available.
# Spend enough verified time there to reach the daily milestones.
# Check the flag stack in your Bag or '''Flags carried''' on the website.

The earning checks happen roughly every five minutes. Your first successful check establishes that you are there; counted time follows subsequent successful checks. A flag therefore may not arrive at the exact stopwatch minute you expect.

Offline time and gaps in confirmed presence do not count. A Discord requirement for system-land rewards does not create a separate Discord requirement for every Realm battle.

== Daily earning and carrying limits ==

{| class="wikitable"
! Rule !! Current value
|-
| First daily flag || 30 verified minutes on qualifying system land
|-
| Second daily flag || 60 verified minutes total that day
|-
| Maximum earned per day || 2 flags
|-
| Maximum carried || 6 flags
|-
| New earning day || Midnight Second Life Time (SLT)
|}

The second flag is earned at 60 minutes total: 30 more counted minutes after the first milestone. It does not require another full hour.

SLT follows Second Life's Pacific time, including its daylight-saving changes. Use SLT midnight for the daily allowance rather than your own local midnight.

Essence multipliers do not speed up flag earning or increase the two-flag daily allowance. Reaching your daily Essence earning cap does not prevent collection of a flag you have earned through valid time.

== When your Bag is full ==

At six flags, your existing flags remain yours. You cannot collect more until there is space.

# Use a flag successfully so your balance drops below six.
# Return to qualifying system land.
# Complete another successful presence check on the same SLT day.

You can then collect any remaining flag entitlement you earned that day, within the two-flag daily allowance. Earned but uncollected entitlement expires at the next SLT day. Flags already in your Bag remain.

== Use a flag ==

# Go to the region you want to fight for.
# Stay alive, grounded, and in a permitted area.
# Click your flag in the Bag or an assigned shortcut.
# Choose the available action.

{| class="wikitable"
! Action !! Flag cost
|-
| '''Lay Siege''' || None; you must carry at least one flag
|-
| '''Use''' with a successful plant || One flag
|-
| A refused plant || None
|-
| Open the Bag or flag dialog || None
|-
| '''Assign''', '''Clear''', or move a shortcut/bar || None
|}

You can plant in an '''Unclaimed''' region or an enemy-controlled region whose bar is '''50% or below'''. There can be only one planted flag in a region. Your own team's holdings, safe areas, and capture protection block planting.

If players try to plant together, only one successful plant can take the available place. A refused attempt does not spend a flag.

A flag you successfully spend is not refunded if the capture fails, the planter dies, or the flag breaks. The Bag holds unused flags; a planted flag belongs to its current attempt.

== What happens to unused flags? ==

Unused flags survive death, relogging, changes of allegiance, and opting out. They cannot be transferred to another player.

Turning '''Take part''' off stops flag earning. Turning it back on does not give you a new daily allowance: flags already earned that day still count toward the limit. Your counted earning minutes for that day restart when you rejoin.

If participation is suspended, flag earning and use are frozen. Your existing unused flags are kept.

== Flags, slots, and cells ==

All your flags appear as one stack with a number. Twelve Bag cells or twelve Action Bar slots do not let you carry twelve flags.

'''Assign''' creates a shortcut to that stack. '''Clear''' removes a shortcut without deleting flags. An assigned shortcut can remain empty after you spend the last flag and become useful again when you earn another.

== If a flag does not appear ==

# Check that '''Take part''' is on and your participation is available.
# Confirm you are alive, wearing a working updated HUD, and on qualifying system land.
# Complete any Discord verification requested for system-land rewards.
# Allow the next presence check to happen.
# Check whether you have already earned two flags that SLT day or are carrying six.
# If the website is delayed, check the Bag too and wait for its current count.

Keep earning time and capture time separate. Fighting in a random combat region does not replace the required time on qualifying system land.
