What is a Impalong

A community event where many players gather to improve items, sermon, and play games.

Players or Alliances host an event for other players to come by and improve items to their highest capacity, 70ql being the highest average. Players that have priests also gather to have sermons which is usually located near the improving area. Most Impalongs have a secured bedroom for the player and their alts.
