Patch 8.0 introduced a new world pvp feature called War Mode. Activating War Mode in your major city will put you in a separate phase from other players when out in the world, and to keep everybody partying on the same plane, disabling War Mode is required to participate in the event. We’re relieved to also note that the world pvp changes won’t interfere with the Bassball cup on Friday!
