Only the guild master or assistant guild master of the invading team can use the life stone. Once the life stone is created it functions as a respond point for the entire guild.

When the invading team's character gets killed,he will respond from the life stone and not from the outside of castle.

• When invading team's guild member (including united guild) gets killed, he will respond nearer from the battle zone.
• Can only be used by the invading team.
• Due to its special powers, it will restore HP/MP/AG to the invading team's characters around it (3 tiles) at the certain time.
• Life Stones can be destroyed when attacked by the invading/defending teams.
• Life Stones cannot be used more than 3 times per siege.
