Defense Order

Defense Order was a public raid event where all players must defend an island from invading enemies by defeating an enemy boss within a 30 minute time limit. There were multiple groups of smaller enemies, and defeating these weakened the much stronger Area Keeper bosses. Defeating the Area Keeper unlocked new areas to defend, until ultimately the Area Boss descended. Players would have to defeat all the Area Keepers and then face the Area Boss before the time limit. The Defense Order menu could formerly be found from the Home screen in the Town area.
Defense Orders were split by player group to prevent overloading servers. Initially, each Defense Order only applied to one player group at a time, but later updated to include up to 4 player groups to compensate for off hours. You can find your player group by going to Menu > Profile - your player group is listed next to your ID, under your name. Defense Order times were announced on the offical Twitter a few hours before each began, and a notice was visible from the Home screen in place of the Town button as well.
Enemy minion groups were split into four categories: Attack, Defense, Blitz, and Convoy. The enemies in each group could be different elements, but the specific configuration of elements is always fixed within each Defense Order scenario, so it was possible to identify which groups were best to fight. Up to 18 players could battle against each enemy minion group. When the Area Keepers spawned, they received buffs for each enemy unit still alive; Attack and Defense units boosted Attack and Defense respectively, while Blitz units granted increased Multiattack rate and Convoy units granted increased Debuff Resistance. Killing minion groups would weaken the Keepers and Boss, even for players that were in the middle of fighting them. Area Keepers and the Area Boss could have HP upwards of the tens of billions and multiple health bars, each denoted by a different color. There was a limit of 10,000 players who could participate in their battles. If the Area Boss was not defeated within the time limit, the Defense Order would fail.
During Unite and Fight events, Defense Orders were suspended.
Due to negative player feedback, Defense Order was suspended indefinitely after the Order of the Lord event ended on September 21, 2016.

Rewards
Similar to raid battle honor, players earned Siege Shields in proportion to their battle contribution. Players were ranked based on the number of Siege Shields earned throughout the event; the top 1, 10, 100, and 1000 players earn a trophy. After the Area Boss was defeated, there was a Share Chest containing 3 different rewards. Each reward had a minimum Siege Shield requirement in order to roll. Players chose their desired reward then roll a random number between 1 and 10,000,000; for each reward, the two highest and two lowest rolls win the reward - in other words, 12 players will receive one of the Share Chest rewards. You could only choose one of the three rewards to roll on.
In addition to the the Share Chest, there was a Siege Shield bonus for winning the Defense Order; it used to initially be 500 Siege Shields per win, but then the bonus appeared to scale with your overall contribution. Neither this Siege Shield bonus nor the Share Chest would be granted if the Defense Order failed. In addition, trash enemy units had a low chance to drop chests with various treasures, such as orbs, tomes, scrolls, and whorls. Siege Shields were accumulated over many Defense Order invasions and could be traded within the Defense Order menu or at the Shop for event items, consumables, or Defense Order exclusive boost items.
As of February 14th, 2017, all Siege Shields were removed from all players' inventories and it is no longer possible to access the Defense Order shop.
