    The Dog in the Details: Frontline questions.

    I'm glad to say that I've finally procured enough equipment through PvP to no longer be low on ilvl as a tank through frontlines! Success!

    Except... I barely understand the details of the seperate frontline fights, and it seems to be a point of contention to some outspoken individuals within the fight.

    First, let me state my understanding for each.

    Secure:

    This is your typical capture and hold, with anywhere between three (24 man) and seven? (72 man) points to hold.

    Each point held adds towards a ticking total towards a victory goal. However, additional monster spawn in the center area that can be killed for points.


    Slaughter
    A 24 to 72 man brawl in which points are given for eliminating the enemy team. Each participant has their own individual "Adrenline" gauge which serves as single Limit Breaks which vary how fast you build depending on if you've managed to kill four or eight players without dieing.

    Additional points AND buffs are given to teams that manage to slay boss monsters that spawn in various points on the map (3 locations.)


    My question is this: What are the point value for different kinds of mobs within Frontlines that Spawn as well as the buffs that are given? Knowing this sort of information would help me pass it along and establish an easily understandable meta for my particular Grand Company.

    Thanks again for your time!

    First Mid Drone = Points + Haste (massive skill/spell speed up)
    Second Mid Drone = Points + HP Up
    Third Mid Drone = Points
    Temple/Markets/Manors Drones = 20pts (someone confirm for me?) + Damage Up (stackable)
    Player Kills = 1 point

    That's all I've noticed.

    Trying to get the specific number of points for Slaughter mobs. I'm thinking the Alphas are 20, but not sure.
