Rise of Kingdoms: Light and Darkness KVK 3 is an eight-kingdom battle where you are fighting your way into the center of the map toward the great ziggurat in the center of the KVK map. Owning the great ziggurat offers great rewards at the end of kingdom versus kingdom.
The only time you have to be active in ROK is during Light and Darkness KVK. This is a time when you will see the power and teamwork of your kingdom and alliance.
If you are active, you will receive plenty of rewards that will boost your growth.
This guide is for Light and Darkness KVK in ROK, and if you are looking for other types of KVK, just click on the name.
If you are a new player, I would advise you to boost your city hall to level 17 because you will not be able to participate.
How to teleport in Light And Darkness KVK
To teleport in Light and Darkness KVK, you will press the sun icon in the right-top corner of your screen. After you press it, you will see the option “Teleport.” You will be teleported to a random location in the starting zone of your kingdom.
To return from the lost kingdom, it’s the same process, but you’ll need to have a targeted teleport.
Light and Darkness Flags and Forts
In the starting zone in kingdom versus Kingdom, you can’t teleport because you will not have flags and forts. That means you’re going to have to start building forts and flags immediately when you enter KVK.
Now, flags in the lost kingdom actually require a special resource called a crystal. You get those by creating a fort or flag that is on top of crystals. Same with special resource points like gold, food, wood, and stone.
Building flags and forests in the first zone is important because the Crusader fort will become available for rebuilding, and to rebuild it, you will have to connect flags with it.
The cost of flags will be increased for every 20 flags you and your alliance build. They do not share the cost with flags in your home kingdom.
When it comes to forts, you will have to delete your forts in the home kingdom so you can build them in the lost kingdom.

Light And Darkness KVK Map
The map is different in this new Light and Darkness KVK event.
The map is designed in such a way that the only place where the first big fight will happen is in the middle. So if you are not ready with speedups and resources, you will have plenty of time to get them.
One more place where you will fight a lot is ruins. But the problem with ruins is that you can send only one troop inside, and there is a lot of lag.
Light and darkness will have the same number of buildings. Now, buildings are the most important thing. If the enemy team destroys your building, you will not be able to fix it, and they will get points for that.
That is very important because, in the end, the KVK team with the most points from destroyed buildings will win KVK and rewards. That is why having a good kingdom and allies is key to winning.
To get a higher quality of map images just press on it.
Twilight Rewards
Great way to get extra gems and gold keys. Twilight rewards can be given by kingdoms, your kingdom, or alliances. It all depends on what type of quest there is. Just go to Twilight, tap, and read what the quest is.
Grace of Soluna
The Grace of Soluna is a place where you will donate Soluna coins to upgrade your kingdom’s technology. Not only do you help your kingdom by upgrading, but with every donation to kingdom technology, you will get the same amount of honor points. The better kingdom technology you have, the easier KVK will be.
How do you get Soluna Coins?
- Farming barbarians: A higher level of barbarians will give you more coins.
- Gathering: Gathering will also give you some coins, so if you do not have action points, go and farm. Every single Solunacoin matters.
- Light Versus Darkness: An Important Event for Getting Soluna Coins. Here, you will be able to get a good amount of coins.
Honor points
Well, for getting honor points, it is all the same as getting Soluna coins. Just be active and do your best.
The only place where you can honor the Soluna coin is an ancient ruin. Ruins will give you an insane amount of honor points. Just see what alliance is doing ancient runs and join them. Try not to miss a single one if you get the top spot in individual honor points.
Now you can see the honor points of your alliance members by clicking the box at the bottom right of the screen. You can see in the image where it is located.
Light and Darkness Stages KVK 3
| Light and Darkness stages | |
| Gathering | 4 days |
| Speedups spending | 2 days |
| Destroying barbarians forts | 4 days |
| Troops training | 2 days |
| Kill event | 3 days |
Every single stage in Light and Darkness will have separate individual rankings where you can earn coins, legendary sculptures, etc.
The duration of stages can be changed by Lilith, so be careful. Usually, it takes around 3 to 5 days.
Gathering: The duration of the first stage is 4 days, so in these 4 days, you will have to gather as much as you can. If you have good farming technology, the best way is to farm gold and gems. If you do not have it, then go with wood and food.
Speedup spending: In this stage, you will use speedups for building, researching, and training troops. So go and find Rune, join an alliance that owns better shrines, and ask for kingdom title. Keep in mind that if you do not have training runes or kingdom buffs, just wait for stage four, where you will earn a lot of points.
Destroying barbarian forts: This is simple. The problem with this stage is that there will not be a lot of forts if your kingdom is active. So if there are a lot of members of the alliance online, you must use 50k to 100k troops. With this, you will be able to have a lot more people in the rally to earn points. Use commanders like Minamoto, Cao Cao, and G. Khan, but if you do not have them, you can use Boudica or Aethelflaed.
Training troops: This is the same as the mightiest governor. Upgrade troops from a lower tier to a higher tier. With his method, you will get more points. But before you go and train, wait for the kingdom buff, ask for the title, and also take a 15% rune.
Kill event—now this is where the fun begins. By killing and severely wounding troops, you will earn points. So go wild and burn everything; hunt farmers. Just be careful and do not leave your city unprotected on the front lines of war. Just teleport to a safe place or use a peace shield. To get more from the Kill event, use the best Rise of Kingdoms commanders.
Honor Roll Rewards
Individual: Well, this all depends on you and your activity during Light and Darkness KVK. Rewards are great, so push as much as you can.
Alliance rewards: Well, this is a collection of all the activities of the alliance. Honor will be collected by the first occupation of buildings, the production of honor over time, and the overall activity of members of your alliance.
Kingdom: the simpler, the more active the kingdom is, the more points will have. With this, you will be able to see if your kingdom is active.
Conclusion
Light and Darkness KVK is a fun and important event in Rise of Kingdoms. Rewards that you can get will speed up your process of getting tier 5 units and upgrading commanders. During Light and Darkness, you will be able to see how strong and active your kingdom is and how much they are willing to sacrifice for the kingdom.
During Light and Darkness KVK, I would recommend that you play Rise of Kingdoms on PC or Mac. It will give you a much better gaming experience. Hopefully, Rise of Kingdoms will one day be available on PlayStation and Xbox.
We all know that when there is no KVK, the only thing you can do is farm, which is boring. Light and darkness KVK is your time to have fun, kill enemies, get nice rewards, and most importantly, you will have a good time with your alliance and kingdom members.
