How to play the Bloomflower Trials mini-game
Offensive Battles

In Offensive Battles of the Bloomflower Trails, you must attack the camp of the opposing tribe by breaking down the three barriers protecting it. You can do so using the Ritual Items found close to the challenges. However, to use these items, you must first charge them by accumulating Ritual Energy, which can be done by completing various tasks across the map.
The tasks you must complete on the event map include capturing flags, defeating enemies, collecting Provisional Supply Boxes, and completing tribal challenges.

Once you have broken the three barriers by performing three attacks with the Ritual Items, you must go to the enemy base and defeat all warriors to complete the mini-game.
Defensive Battles

Defensive Battles are quite simple and are similar to the Ley Line Monolith challenges. Here, you must stay in the vicinity of your tribe's flags and protect them from enemy mobs intent on destroying them. Safely making it to the end of the challenge with your flags undestroyed will net you a victory in the challenge.
