How does Initial Occupation Rewards work?

Understanding one of the most misunderstood reward systems in Legion of Frostborne

If you’ve ever participated in Legion of Frostborne (KvK) or other large-scale server events, you’ve seen the “Initial Occupation Reward” pop up when cities, citadels, or gates are captured. But here’s the thing — many players, especially on younger servers, are still unclear about how these rewards actually work.

Do you have to be in the top 10 contributors to earn them? Do you need to be in the winning alliance? Or do you just need to tag the city once?

Let’s break it down clearly because these rewards are massive — and understanding them will make you rethink how you approach city sieges.


What Are Initial Occupation Rewards?

Whenever your alliance captures a city, citadel, or gate for the first time in Legion of Frostborne, the game grants Initial Occupation Rewards.

These rewards typically include:

  • Millions of resources (scaled by city level)
  • Gold
  • Gems
  • Occasionally, speedups or other special items

For example, capturing a Level 13 City in Frostborne rewards each participant:

  • 22M mixed resources
  • 1.3M gold
  • 200 gems

That’s for every single player who contributed — not just the top 10.


Who Gets the Rewards?

Here’s where the confusion comes in.

Do you need to be in the top 10?
No.

Do you need to do a ton of damage?
No.

Do you need to be in the winning alliance?
Yes — but only during the siege.

So how do you qualify?
Anyone who sends at least one march to hit the city while it’s being captured gets the reward.

That’s it.

If your alliance successfully takes the city, and you sent even a single march, you’ll receive the full Initial Occupation Reward.


Why This Is a Big Deal

The beauty of this system is that small players, free-to-play users, and even alts can benefit enormously.

  • F2P Growth Boost: For a low-level castle, getting 22M resources + 1.3M gold + 200 gems just for tagging a city is huge.
  • Alt Farming: Many players use their alt accounts to tag cities for easy resources, helping them keep up with main-account growth.
  • Alliance-Wide Value: It encourages every member to participate in city sieges, making teamwork more rewarding.

How to Maximize These Rewards

  1. Always Tag the City
    Even if you can’t do much damage, send at least one march to every city your alliance is capturing. Don’t sit idle.
  2. Join All Major Sieges
    Make a habit of joining sieges for gates, citadels, and high-level cities — the bigger the city, the bigger the reward.
  3. Use Your Alts
    If you have alt accounts in the same alliance or kingdom, send their marches too. It’s free resources and gems for accounts that need them most.
  4. Coordinate with Alliance Leadership
    Ask your R4/R5 when sieges are happening so you don’t miss out.

TL;DR – The Quick Version

  • Initial Occupation Rewards go to any player who sends at least one march to help capture a city.
  • It’s not just for the top 10 contributors.
  • Huge for small players and alts: A Level 13 city gives 22M resources, 1.3M gold, and 200 gems each.
  • Always tag cities during sieges — it’s free, easy, and worth it.

Final Thoughts

This is one of the most efficient ways to farm resources and gems in Infinity Kingdom, especially in Legion of Frostborne. Whether you’re a top-tier spender or a F2P grinder, there’s no excuse not to tag every city your alliance goes for.

It’s free growth — don’t leave it on the table.
