The Game
The Battle for the Bonfire is a 10 player minigame where the players are separated into two teams, Blue and Red, and each team must gather wood to light your team's Bonfire and extinguish the flames of the opposing team.

The party leader must initiate the minigame for it to begin. There, players will get two options.

Which Team would you like to join for Battle for the Bonfire?

[!] The Blue Team is already full. You have been automatically assigned to Red Team.
[+1 Flaming Glaive]

[!] You have joined the Blue Team!
[+1 Flaming Glaive]

[!] The Red Team is already full. You have been automatically assigned to Blue Team.
[+1 Flaming Glaive]

[!] You have joined the Red Team!
[+1 Flaming Glaive]

Upon joining either team, you will receive a Flaming Glaive. This will be your weapon for this game. Use it to hit and burn enemies.

Oh, did I forget to mention that spells, skills and weapons are disabled in this minigame?

Phase 1 - The Wood Phase

Once all team members have spawned, the Wood Phase will begin. The teams will have 5 minutes to gather 5 Pine Wood to their respective team's bonfire to progress to Phase 2 and get a random Boon effect.

Here, players must sneak around the opposing team to get to their forest behind their bonfire. For each player standing in the safe zone, they will receive [1 Pine Wood].

After the 2 minute mark, players will receive double the amount of wood to speed up the first phase of the game.

They must then safely get back to their team's bonfire WITHOUT DYING and throw the wood to their bonfire.

Bonus Objective
At the below center of the stage, there will be an Enchantment Table that records the amount of accumulative kills each team has as well as a random Boon effect. The team with accumulative 30 kills or 20 collected Runes first will receive the Boon effect.

Phase 2 - The Fire Phase.

Once the Wood Phase is complete, the Fire Phase will begin. Here, players must climb the top of the center building and receive a Bonfire Flame to burn the enemy's flag.

Each team's flag will have a total of 5HP. The Bonfire Flame will eventually do more damage to the enemy's flag as the game progresses.

At the end of the game, both teams will be able to win Various amounts of Sunlit Copper Coins. How much you will receive depends on your Number of Deaths, Number of Kills, Number of Boons and Runes Collected and if you are on the winning/losing team.

Scoreboard

The minigame will keep tabs on your score. It is unknown whether or not it will affect your performance in the minigame in the long run, but it is there for a reason.

Or you could screenshot for bragging rights. Who knows?

Boons and Runes

Boons and Runes are buffs that can be stacked over time. Each one has its own specialty and it is up to the player to make full use of its combinations.

Boons :- Boons are buffs that last for the entire match. A team can have a maximum of two Boon effects :- One from winning the Wood Phase and one from winning the wildcard Bonus Objective.

Runes:- Runes are temporary buffs that are either instant use, single use or have five uses. Once the Rune have been used up, it will disappear from the player. Players can also find similar runes to recharge its use if the Rune in question is a five use one.

Extra Weapons

Including the Flaming Glaive, there are five weapons that you can get during the Battle for the Bonfire. However, these additional weapons can only be used five times with a very long cooldown after every use, so use them wisely!

The Fire Whirlwind is a fire dagger that triggers a Spin Attack spell around you.

The Inferno Stardust Scepter is a fire wand that triggers a "Meteor" spell towards a designated target area and has a meteor delay of three seconds.

The Raging Helix is a fire relik that triggers an "Uproot" spell towards its designated target.

The Blazing Inferno Bow will have a larger range of attack than the Flaming Glaive. It unfortunately does not mimic any Archer or Hunter spells apart from its main attack.
