Clan: creation, leveling and configuration

In the game, a clan serves not only as a union of players with a common goal and provides access to a large clan storage, but also gives significant advantages over other players.

Founding a Clan

Before creating a clan, several conditions must be met:

1. Complete the main storyline quest chain;
2. Join one of the factions;
3. Accumulate 500,000 tokens;
4. Find four other players who will help with founding the clan.

Official rules require that all five participants (including you) belong to the same faction and are not members of other clans.

*Previously, this restriction could be bypassed by inviting neutrals – the main requirement was that they had completed the main storyline. However, this method no longer works.

If you don’t have friends ready to help, you can reach out to players via faction chat. Usually, a reward of 100-200 thousand tokens is offered for assistance in creating a clan.

Important! All participants must be in the same group and location during the clan creation process.

Clan Creation Process

1. Approach the required NPC:
   • Confederates – to Mikhalych (Solnechny town);
   • Black Sunset – to Valera (Black Sunset Camp).
2. Start a dialogue and select the “Create Clan” option.
3. In the window that appears, enter the clan name.
   • Naming Rules:
     • You can use only Latin or Cyrillic characters, but not both together.
     • Spaces and numbers are allowed, but no other symbols.
     • Letter case matters.
     • You cannot create a clan with a name that already exists, even if it is in another faction.

How to bypass duplication:

• Use different alphabets (Latin and Cyrillic): “РАССВЕТ” → “PACCBET”.
• Change the case: “Рассвет” → “РАССВЕТ”.

Attention! The clan name cannot be changed after creation.

4. After confirmation, the system will create the clan. You will become the leader, and the other participants will become rank-and-file members.

5. After creating the clan, it is recommended to:

• Create policy groups and assign roles.
• Configure clan storages and access rights.
• Appoint clan deputies (if needed).

How to Join a Clan

1. To apply, open PDA → Clan → Clan List and click the envelope icon next to the desired clan. After that, the clan leader or deputy will be able to see the application and accept or reject it.

*In the application, the clan leadership will see the player’s nickname, level, class, number of faction points, rank, as well as a message (if the player wrote something when applying).

2. If the clan has fewer than 5 members, it does not appear in the general rating. In this case, the player must be invited personally. To do this, the leader or deputy must be in the same location with them, open PDA → Clan → Invite to Clan, enter the player’s nickname, and send the invitation.

3. Don’t forget to assign a policy group to the new member immediately after acceptance!

Clan Leveling

Raising the clan level allows increasing the number of its members, and advancing in the ranking attracts the attention of other players, which can lead to an increase in potential clanmates.

When leveling up the clan technology, its members can unlock unique clan skills that provide bonuses for all clan members.

Clan perks:

• Upon reaching Clan Level 5, its members get access to a special quest at the Proving Ground, which opens the possibility of crafting reconnaissance drones.
• The “Faction Arsenal” skill allows purchasing faction armor, SSDs, RPGs, and ammunition for them.
• The “Faction Arsenal 2” skill opens access to purchasing and using the mortar.

Clan Ranking

The clan ranking is calculated using a complex formula that is not disclosed by the game administration. However, it is known that it is influenced by:

• Amount of PvP, PvE, and Crafting points;
• Unlocked clan skills;
• Faction reputation (total reputation of all clan members);
• Player uniqueness (absence of twins – characters created on one account). The presence of twins in a clan reduces its rating.

Approximate clan rating calculation formula:

Rating = (0.00015 ⋅ Sum of PvP, PvE, and Crafting points + 0.0002 ⋅ Technology points + 0.1 ⋅ Reputation − 10 ) × (number of unique characters ÷ total number of characters in the clan).

The sum of PvP, PvE, and Crafting points is calculated based on the fact that 10 PvP points = 300 PvE points = 300 Crafting points.

Impact of Twins on Clan Ranking

For those who might be curious – here is a visual example of how the presence of twins affects the overall clan rating. By twins, I mean characters located on the same account.

The results turned out to be quite clear:

• Screenshot 1: 3 unique members in the clan, rating = 109.09

• Screenshot 2: 8 unique members, rating increased slightly to 109.13

• Screenshot 3: 11 characters in the clan, of which only 8 are unique, the rest are twins. The rating dropped sharply to 79.37

Conclusion: the presence of twins significantly reduces the clan rating.

Based on these observations, we can assume that the formula looks something like this:

Total clan rating = (total rating for PvP, PvE, crafting, techno, reputation, etc.) × (number of unique characters ÷ total number of characters in the clan).

Previously, the clan ranking really reflected activity – how many unique participants were in the clan and how actively they perform clan quests. This helped new players choose a truly alive and active clan.

Why do I say “previously”? Because initially, when the current rating calculation system was being developed, the game was paid, and all players immediately had 4 open character slots. Accordingly, the clan rating was built taking into account that one account can contain several characters (i.e., twins).

But later the game became free-to-play, and new players started with only one available slot. To create a twin, you now need to buy an additional slot – or, which is much easier, simply create a new account. As a result, many players started adding twins to the clan via different accounts.

And this means that the current rating calculation system no longer reflects reality. It still “penalizes” clans for twins on one account, but does not account for twins created on different accounts. This results in a distortion: active clans with “correct” twins lose rating, while those who bypass the system through multi-accounts do not.

Clan Skills

When completing quests for Technology, the clan receives points that can be used to unlock clan skills. These skills are similar to character skills but apply to all clan members at once.

Features of Clan Skills:

• You can unlock all skills at once. Unlike a character who is forced to choose between different development branches, a clan can develop all skills simultaneously (if there are enough points).
• No bonus stacking. If you unlock several levels of one skill, the clan will only receive the bonus from the last level, not the cumulative effect. For example, a fully unlocked medicine branch will give 20%, not 10% + 15% + 20% = 45%.
• Skills cannot be reset. After unlocking, it is impossible to “forget” them, so it is important to plan development carefully.

All active clan bonuses can be viewed in the “Clan Parameters” section

Clan Management Tools

The clan leader and deputies also have the ability to track their clanmates’ activity in completing clan quests.

CLAN LOG

Points Log – displays all actions related to clan points in real-time: completion of clan quests, point conversion, unlocking clan skills.

Activity Log – records all changes in the clan composition and management: accepting and expelling players, assigning policy groups, changing access to clan storages.

Data in the clan log (as in the clan storage log) is stored for no more than a month, so keep this in mind when viewing.

STATISTICS

In this section, you can set a time range and view the activity of clan members in completing clan quests. Sorting by various categories is available. Data is saved for the entire existence of the clan.

Important to consider: if a player changed their nickname, then when viewing statistics for a large period of time, their old nickname will be displayed (relevant at the start of the selected range). If analyzing a short segment after the nickname change, the new nickname will be shown.

Point Conversion

Only the clan leader has the ability to convert points between PvP, PvE, and Crafting. This allows redistributing surplus into missing categories and thereby accelerating clan leveling (for example, PvE points are often converted to PvP). Technology points are not subject to conversion.

10 PvP points = 300 PvE/Crafting points.

Other Nuances

What happens if the clan has fewer than 5 members?

Creating a clan for personal storage

Some players create a clan for personal use. In this case, after creation, you can kick all helpers and remain the only member.

If fewer than 5 players remain in the clan, it will not be disbanded. However, in the general clan ranking, it will become invisible to other players – only clan members will be able to see it. Accordingly, other players will not be able to send a join request.

How to “kill” a clan

What can lead to the clan ceasing to function normally and stalling in development? There are at least two ways:

• Lifetime ban of the leader.
  In this case, the leader will not be able to transfer control, which means the clan will be left without full management. It will be impossible to appoint deputies, ordinary players will lose access to faction equipment, clan skill leveling, warehouses, and point conversion. All this will significantly slow down development.
• Draining faction reputation to zero.
  If the leader resets the reputation, they are automatically kicked from the clan and the faction. As a result, the clan is left without a leader at all, which also blocks its development.
