Revision - study lodge - Honor of Kings: World Wiki

Overview

The Study Lodge (学舍, Xuéshè) is Honor of Kings: World's player housing system, confirmed by current community data. Every player has their own personal Study Lodge where they can build, decorate, invite friends to visit, and dispatch pets on tasks. The name reflects the Jixia Academy scholarly framing of the game: a Study Lodge is the kind of living space a Jixia Academy student might maintain, combining private quarters with a workspace for crafting and contemplation.

What the Study Lodge Is

The Study Lodge is the player's persistent personal space. Unlike the procedurally-matched combat content of the main game, the Study Lodge is a customizable, persistent zone that the player owns and controls. Players can:

Build and customize the layout of the Lodge itself
Place furniture and decorations to personalize the space
Invite friends to visit their Study Lodge
Dispatch pets on tasks, sending them out to earn resources while the player is offline or focused elsewhere
Use the Lodge as a social hub for displaying cosmetic unlocks, mounts, and outfits

Pet Dispatch System

One of the confirmed features of the Study Lodge is the ability to dispatch pets on tasks. This is distinct from the Huanling (唤灵 Summoned Spirits) combat companion system: pet dispatch is a passive management system where players assign their pets to gather resources, complete objectives, or earn currency while the player is busy with other activities. This gives the Study Lodge a management-game layer that complements the action RPG combat loop.

Social Features

Players can visit each other's Study Lodges, which creates a social layer where players show their cosmetic collections and decoration taste. Because Honor of Kings: World uses cosmetic-only monetization, the Study Lodge is one of the main places where players express their personality and achievements beyond combat performance. Friend lists and party systems integrate with visits, so players can drop into a friend's Lodge as easily as they join their party.

Cosmetic Shop Integration

The Honor of Kings: World cash shop includes housing decorations as one of its cosmetic categories. Players can purchase decorations or earn them through gameplay, and these items appear in their Study Lodge. Monthly passes like 汐月之礼 (Xi Yue Zhi Li, 30 CNY) may include Study Lodge decoration items as rewards alongside other cosmetic benefits.

Distinction From MOBA Home Base

The Study Lodge is NOT the same as the Honor of Kings MOBA's "home base" or any similar concept from the MOBA. Honor of Kings: World does not inherit MOBA progression, and the Study Lodge is a native HoKW system built for the action RPG format rather than ported from the MOBA.
