korrode Report post Posted October 14, 2007 (edited) Will Bronze Sword be allowed in the tourney?Yes.But, I am very wary of the Bronze Sword... all the other Great Swords and non-enchanted weapons require more strategic use. The Bronze Sword does mass damage (even mass minimum damage) and still retains good bonuses to accuracy and crits. There is no trade-off for that damage and i fear it will eliminate the requirement for using good strategy with weapons and medallion choice. I will be watching anyone using a Bronze Sword carefully, and if i think it's overpowered it will not be allowed at future events. The fact it breaks very easily is a trade-off, yes, but so long as your rich you can just buy many of them and bring more than one. As it says in the original post, i want this to be a competition of character strength and strategy, not riches and chance. Stricken/PyschO just let me know he cant make it, LaVallet is in. Also, i wont be answering any more in-game PM's of questions that are answered in the original post. So if you PM me a question and i dont respond within a day, u most likely just need to re-read the first post, which has had many edits with new info since the initial posting.

MLCA Report post Posted October 14, 2007 no sense in allow bronze sword and not allow enchanted weapons... i think just great swords should be allowed at this tournament that's my opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
korrode Report post Posted October 14, 2007 i think just great swords should be allowed at this tournamentThe Bronze Sword is listed in the encyclopedia under Great Swords. It's the only reason it's allowed in the first place... because EL officially recognizes it as a "Great Sword"... hmmm... if other competitors wanted to post their opinion on allowing the Bronze Sword, please do.

korrode Report post Posted October 15, 2007 Are Combat Rings like Rings of Power (I have 5 for sale btw) or Rings of Massive Mana Destruction (I have 10 for sale btw) allowed? No mention of them is made above.Yes they are allowed.The initial post in it's original form did mention them, but i removed the reference as to not assist people in developing their strategy, or alert them to the possible strategy of others. Great job Korrode, looks like fun all around Thanks You still 79/79 a/d or under Pepper? Am i putting u down as a backup? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2coolfool Report post Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) put my name in, i'll TS note 100% sure i can make it though, but why not have a shot anyway PS: TS'ing to exactly 59 a/d is allowed, right? PSS: just went through the list of items allowed, and i'm asking this for clarification cause some pk contests have disallowed these items.. are mana burn/massive mana burn/damage rings and rings of power allowed? (so i can prepare for 'em) Edited October 15, 2007 by 2coolfool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stricken Report post Posted October 16, 2007 If i were to pk i'd use RoP's / Mass mana rings / mana drain / harm / poison. also another pr0 strategy for naralik pm me in game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
korrode Report post Posted October 16, 2007 PS: TS'ing to exactly 59 a/d is allowed, right? Yes... to my understanding 60/60 a/d will work (or 65/55, or 55/65, etc... as long as your combined a/d is 120 or less). If you can attack in the arena, you can compete. I suggest everyone goto the arena and test that they can attack in the setup they plan to use on the day. PSS: just went through the list of items allowed, and i'm asking this for clarification cause some pk contests have disallowed these items.. are mana burn/massive mana burn/damage rings and rings of power allowed? (so i can prepare for 'em)Yes, they are allowed. Unlike the Bronze Sword, the game itself provides adequate protection against these rings. I dont like setting a rule and then changing it, but it's still many days until the tournament... so yeah, anyway, I'm changing something: The Bronze Sword will NOT be allowed. Apologies to those who i told could use it, but my reasons and concerns are spelled out in a previous post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyways, I hope someone will drop out so I can compete, I will definitely be there on Saturday even if I can't. Oh and btw, your (stricken) pr0 harm/poison/mana drain is pointless to any smart person who would bring magic protection immunity. Hope to see ya there.

Stricken Report post Posted October 16, 2007 harm and poison is waist of mana when u are fighting ;p mana drain ftw? and Saint, more then likely they'll wanna save that mana for the restore, cuz the other little "combo" I got can smakc for as much as a bronze sword Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
