Kurzick-Luxon border
From Guild Wars Wiki
The border is shared by all territories, and is updated every 3 hours, based the outcome of the last 3 hours of alliance battles, as well as momentum from previous rounds of alliance battles. A faction that pushes into enemy territory will temporarily gain a "momentum bonus" that helps it drive the battle line further into enemy territory.

[edit] Town and outpost control
Towns are awarded to alliances with preference going to the alliance with the highest amount of faction first. The numbers 1 to 15 indicate the ranking system used (and effectively, list the top 15 faction-accumulating alliances of each faction.) Where the numbers of both Kurzick and Luxon are listed for the same town, then it is dependent on where the Kurzick-Luxon border is situated at the time.
[edit] Effects of town and outpost control
- Merchants and skill trainers deal exclusively with members of the town's controlling faction.
- Crafters and traders in the Echovald Forest deal exclusively with Kurzick-aligned players and crafters in the Jade Sea deal exclusively with Luxon-aligned players regardless of town control.
- Xunlai Agents and faction reward NPCs will deal with players regardless of faction, as will the merchants in Elite Mission outposts.
- Shrines adjacent to a faction-controlled town will include a priest, merchant and guards from that faction. Neutral players and members of the opposing faction can only use the shrine after bribing or fighting these NPCs.
