Post by Roland Deschain »

Blackstone Arena Festival Event @ 29/12 12.00 EST

This is the return of the ol' Blackstone Arena Festival Event. Bring your knuckles, weapons or spells – fight for your honor and you shall be rewarded. Duly note that this is a PVP event hosted and sponsored by players, so we kindly ask all participants to follow the guidelines that we've outlined below.

Who are the sponsors of this event?

When and where does it take place?

The event will take place on 29/12 1200 EST in the *Blackstone Keep Arena*.

What are the rules?

The rules are kept simple: No time stop, no healing and no harm is allowed. All other mechanisms and spells are allowed. Please also respect the hosts.

How will this event work?

This event will be split in three categories, Pre-epics (level 11-20), epics (level 21-37) and full epics (level 40s only). Each category of attendees will fight each other in a "best-of-3" format (first player to win 2 fights advances.), for a chance to win a forge stone and a rune of recall.

All participants will be split in the following brackets:

1. Pre-epics: Players between level 11-20 to fight each other.
2. Epics: Players between level 21-37 to fight each other.
3. Full epics: Players at level 40 to fight each other – with a minor caveat where melees fight melees, and spell casters fight spell casters.

If you have any questions, please post these in this thread and we will do our bests to update this post as we get closer to the event start.

What are the rewards?

All participants will be rewarded a lesser forge stone for their participation. The winners of their BO3 (best-of-3) fight will be rewarded with an additional lesser forge stones, the winner of each bracket will receive a forge stone and a rune of recall (totaling 3 winners, one for each bracket.)


How can I participate?

Please post your character name, player account name and the intended bracket you wish to participate in (ie., pre-epics, epics or full epics. melee or spellcaster.). The DMs have offered themselves to announce all participants on the server when time is due for the event so that all players, and participants know when the event is set to start.

Hey!
First off, great idea to bring such event to server!

Few question's regarding tourny rules :
1. Go as we rest or pre-buff?
2. Casters in?
3. Scrolls/wands?

How many Players are in so far?

Regards

/////////////// EDIT /////////////////

There is ongoing discussion on Discord https://discord.gg/8d48zP2
As far as I can understand :
1. PreBuffs
2. Casters IN
3. All allowed

Tournament went well! Thanks to the sponsors for organising everything, and for Warlock who stepped in to host for Sid.

So when's the next one? ;)
