The Three Kingdoms and Their Flags
Metin2 is divided into three rival kingdoms: Shinsoo (Red), Chunjo (Yellow) and Jinno (Blue). Each kingdom has its own flag, which serves as a symbol of strength and control over territory. The flag system is one of the core elements of Metin2 PvP and sustains the ongoing rivalry between the realms.
Flags appear on special battle maps where the kingdoms compete against one another. The kingdom that controls the most flags or destroys the enemy flags earns bonuses for all its members — making flag battles a genuine community event.
Flag Types in Metin2
Kingdom Flags
The large kingdom flags are at the heart of the Dragon Battle (Wangseong). Each realm places its flag on the shared battle map, and the objective is to destroy the enemy flags while defending your own. Whoever destroys all enemy flags first — or has the most flags still standing when time runs out — wins.
Territory Flags
On regular maps there are territory flags that can be claimed by a kingdom. When a kingdom holds a territory flag, all members of that realm benefit from bonuses to experience and loot in that zone. This makes controlling territory strategically valuable — especially in heavily farmed areas.
Bonuses from Flag Control
| Flag Type | Bonus | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Kingdom Flag (Victory) | +10% Attack, +10% Defence for the winning kingdom | Until the next battle |
| Territory Flag | +5–15% Experience in the zone | As long as the flag is held |
| Battle Flag (Event) | Additional drops, rare items | Event period |
The Dragon Battle (Wangseong)
The Dragon Battle is the major PvP event built around the flag system. It takes place at set times on the server and draws in players of all levels. Beginners can take part too — success depends on coordinated attack and defence, not individual strength alone.
Tips for the Dragon Battle
- Coordination: Talk with your guild and kingdom before the battle begins. Who attacks, who defends?
- Healing Shamans: Shamans are indispensable in the Dragon Battle — as a healer you can have an enormous impact even with average equipment
- Flag Rush: A swift charge at an enemy flag can decide the match early — risky, but highly effective
- Buff Timing: Use strengthening potions and bonuses just before assaulting a main flag
Flags and Guild Warfare
The flag system is closely tied to guild warfare. Strong guilds dominate flag positions and secure advantages for their members. Joining an active guild means you automatically benefit from the flag bonuses they've fought for — a compelling reason to join a guild early on.
Guilds with a high flag score also earn points on the server rankings, which motivates the server's strongest players to take part in flag battles regularly.
