SEASON 2

Nuclear Furnace & Glacieradon

Know when to attack, how to use limited hits, and how City defense fits into the Week 5 fight.

ScopeWEEK 5 · NUCLEAR FURNACE

🟦 Facts

  • The Nuclear Furnace reactivation event is a warzone-scale Week 5 objective. Its exact start day can vary by server, so follow the live event timer.
  • Sending a squad to the Nuclear Furnace costs 5 Stamina; the event screen tracks up to 10 sends per player, per warzone, each day.
  • Four Season 2 Glacieradons move from the map corners through Cities toward the Nuclear Furnace.
  • A Glacieradon cannot be attacked while moving. The direct boss-attack window opens when it stops at a City.
  • The event supports up to 5 daily direct attacks on a Glacieradon, with different Glacieradons using separate counters. Check the live counter if your rollout differs.
  • Consecutive marching is disabled while reactivating the Nuclear Furnace or attacking Glacieradon.
  • Living Glacieradons can reduce Nuclear Furnace activation progress. The exact loss amount and interval remain rollout-sensitive.
  • After a Glacieradon is defeated, eligible faction commanders can claim its event reward.
  • Same-faction commanders may assist with Furnace activation and Glacieradon activity across warzones when the live event allows it.

🧊 Glacieradon fight loop

  1. MOVING — prepare. You cannot attack it. Track its route, keep Stamina ready, and free your strongest PvE squad.
  2. STOPPED AT A CITY — attack now. This is the unambiguous direct boss-damage window. Open the event target and use your available Glacieradon attacks.
  3. CITY UNDER ATTACK — defend for territory. Reinforce when holding the City matters, but do not count City-defense battles as guaranteed boss damage because the interaction can differ.
  4. DEFEATED — collect and shift. Claim available rewards, then move attention to the next living Glacieradon and Nuclear Furnace progress.

Member orders

  • Use your strongest proven PvE squad for limited direct hits.
  • Do not assume Tank, Aircraft, or Missile has a Glacieradon-specific advantage; BlackBar Gaming has not established one.
  • Check the live attack counter before spending Stamina. When separate Glacieradon counters are shown, use each boss's available attacks rather than treating them as one shared pool.
  • Keep enough Stamina available for both boss attacks and Nuclear Furnace sends.
👑

R4/R5 coordination

  • Call out the targeted City and the moment the boss stops so members hit the correct attack window.
  • Separate the two jobs in alliance comms: City defense protects territory; direct event attacks are the reliable boss-damage plan.
  • When multiple Glacieradons are available, prioritize finishing one that can realistically be killed instead of leaving several living bosses at low HP.
  • Coordinate same-faction cross-warzone help after your own warzone's immediate target and Furnace contribution are covered.

What to know

  • Movement state matters: moving Glacieradons are not attackable; stopped Glacieradons can be attacked directly.
  • The current Season 2 event family has separate Glacieradon attack counters rather than one universal five-hit pool.
  • City-defense behavior is subject to change. Direct event attacks while the boss is stopped are the consistent boss-damage action in practice.
  • A living Glacieradon remains a Furnace threat, so killing an available boss quickly has more strategic value than merely tagging it.

🟩 BlackBar Gaming recommends

  • Treat every stopped Glacieradon as a limited attack window: get the warzone online, announce the target, and use high-damage squads promptly.
  • If several bosses are available, finish a killable target first while still using any separate per-boss counters available to each player.
  • Defend an owned City when losing it would hurt your alliance, but plan Glacieradon HP removal around direct event attacks.
  • Use the live event interface to confirm your remaining attacks before changing warzones or spending Stamina.

🟥 Warning

  • City-defense damage is subject to change. Retained Season 2 rule text disagrees on whether a successful City defense reduces Glacieradon HP. Follow your live event text; direct attacks while the boss is stopped remain the safe instruction for boss damage.
  • Use the live event screen for Glacieradon Stamina cost, Furnace-progress loss rate, and the event start day.
  • This Week 5 Nuclear Furnace Glacieradon is not the recurring Zombie Invasion Glacieradon. Do not import the recurring event’s 30-attack cap or Alliance Challenge rules into Season 2.
  • Do not assume a universal Tank, Aircraft, or Missile weakness against the Week 5 Glacieradon.

Current Glacieradon settlement details

  • If two Warzones have the same Nuclear Furnace activation progress at settlement, the Warzone that reached that progress first ranks higher.
  • After settlement enters its display period, unfinished Warzones may continue the event, but later progress no longer changes the leaderboard.
  • Any Glacieradon still alive when the event fully ends disappears automatically, and no Warzone kill reward is issued for that surviving boss.
