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.
