Information
- The investment system for Guild Dungeons was implemented on the main servers on August 7th, 2012.
- Guilds owning a castle may invest in their castle using the Cat Paw Merchant located in their castle.
- Players not in a guild may invest in the dungeons realms by talking to the Cat Paw Merchant located in each realm.
- There are 2 ways to invest, with Zeny or with items.
- Investments for Guild Dungeons are used to open floor 2 of the guild dungeon and the Hall of Abyss.
- Floor 2 of the guild dungeon will open when a minimum of 20,000,000 Zeny has been invested for that realm.
- Hall of Abyss will open for that realm when the minimum of 70,000,000 Zeny has been achieved.
- The Zeny invested into each castle in the realm and by the public is added up for these achievements.
Notes: The investment period normally begins a few hours after maintenance (Thursday 6:30 PM PDT). It ends a few hours before WoE Starts (Sunday 9:00 AM PDT) The dungeons will open approximately 3 days later when the investment period ends.

Investing with Zeny
To invest with Zeny into the castle realm speak with the Cat Paw Merchant Guild in the realm you wish to invest in prt_gld15896 (below the fountain). Select I want to invest in this area. After this, select Invest with Zeny. You will then be given the option of 1, 10 or 50 units. Each unit represents 10,000 Zeny. There is another option to choose an amount. By choosing that option you can select a number anywhere from 1-200 units. For every 10,000 Zeny invested you will be given a Thanks Invest Ticket. These tickets can be redeemed for items later on.
Investing with Items
To invest items into the castle realm you must speak with Namis prt_gld145255. Tell him you wish to invest and select the items you wish to invest. The conversion chart for items to tickets is below. The item received for this investment is Cats Invest Certificate. Each of these tickets can be given to the Cat Paw Merchant in the realm in exchange for 10 Thanks Invest Ticket. This gives each Cats Invest Certificate a value of 100,000 Zeny for investing.

About the Chance Column: Percent chance are approximated based on large samples of items acquired from investing. The Black Paw Jelly Bag also includes the WoE equipment (Manteau, Boots, Shoes, Robe, etc) so the actual chance to get another item is very different. However, the chances seem to be proportionately the same.
Entering the New Dungeons
To enter the new dungeons you may speak with the Gate Manager NPC near the NPC you used to invest in the realm. You may only do this after the investment period is over and the gate has been connected. This NPC will then allow access to floor 1 and 2 of the Guild Dungeons. Members of guilds owning a castle in the realm may use the same NPC that allows them to invest inside of their current castle. There is also a status board near each of these Gate Managers to show the current investment status in that realm.
