{{quotation|In-game Description|While many will remember the Calamity for the destruction it wrought upon the realm of Eorzea, that destruction was not without its blessings-one of those being the uncovering of ancient Allagan ruins hidden underneat the war-scarred Carteneau Flats and heretofore unseen for several Astral Eras. When an attempt by the Grand Companies of Eorzea to determine the control of these ruins, and more importantly the secrets they contain, through peaceful negotiations ended in failure, the city-states instead elected to solve the issue of dominion using a form of civilized warfare dubbed the Frontline.}}
 
[[Borderlands (Secure)]] is a 24-V-24-V-24 [[Frontline]] battle added in [[Patch 2.3]] where players must capture and hold select regions to gain a specified tactical rating before time runs out.
==Victory conditions==
In order to win, players must reach a specified tactical rating to win. This can be done in one of three ways:
* Defeating opponents
* Capturing key locations
* defeating monsters.
 
If none of the three alliances reach the specified tactical rating before time runs out, victory is determined by whichever team has the highest tactical rating.
 
==Key Locations==
Players can identify Key Locations by identifying outposts and [[Allagan]] ruins with flags in them. At the beginning of the match, all of the flags will be white, indicating they are unclaimed. As players stand next to the flags, a gauge will appear and slowly fill based on the number of players on a team standing within the flag's circle. However, the outpost can not be claimed if there are players from an enemy team standing in the circle as well. Once a team has occupied a location, the flag will change to represent what team holds the area. These areas can be returned to neutral (white) and taken by another team if enemy players stand in the flag's ring uncontested. The more locations a team has, the quicker their tactical rating will increase.

==Defeating Drones==
During the match, players will see a textbox flash across the screen stating "The Heliodrome's matter displacer has been activated!". This will happen after the first minute of the match, then every 4 minutes after all the drones are defeated. Teams are awarded points to their tactical rating based on how much damage they dealt to the Drones. Eventually a large Interceptor Drone will spawn in the center of the arena after the drones are defeated, and players must attack it in order to increase their tactical rating.
