The Kusamura Arena Showdown 2

[korrode]

- The Kusamura Arena Showdown 2 -

The 1st PK tournament for 8 competitors who can attack in the Kusamura Arena.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Kusamura Arena has a limit on the maximum a/d you can be to attack there.

If your combined attack and defense are over 160, you cant attack. (a "80 a/d arena")

The failing effect of True Sight potions can lower your attack and defense down 19 levels, so a person who is a/d 99/99 can compete in this tournament.

Please do not PM me asking how to -19 TS. If you don't know, ask some fighters in-game.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rules:

 

1. You must be able to attack in Kusamura Arena. TS potion failing IS allowed.

Your ability to attack will be checked before each fight by you attacking myself (Korrode), both of us barefist, and immediately fleeing.

 

2. Attack and Defense Potions are NOT allowed. All other potions ARE allowed.

Your a/d must stay in a state that means you can attack in the arena for the duration of the fight, so no going to positive food after combat has begun either.

(If you suspect the person your fighting has raised their a/d after the attack test, you can screenshot the exp you get off them and send it to me along with a sceenshot of your stats and your god status. Based on that i can determine their a/d at the time of screenie, if i determine they've cheated, they'll be disqualified and banned from any future events i run.)

 

3. Certain weapons and items are NOT allowed, they are as follows:

The rare/magical Great Swords (such as JS of cooldown, cutty of mage, rapier of death, etc.).

The rare/magical Armors (such as steel greaves of ubber def, Ti plate of freezing, etc.).

Any fire/ice/magic/thermal sword.

Medallion of Life

BRoD and BoD

Normal Branch and Bone

Any "Enchanted Weapons" (see Enchanted Weapons page in EL encyclopedia)

The Bronze Sword

 

This is a test of strategy and strength, not riches and items with random chance magical effects.

To ensure further clarity, these are the kind of items that ARE allowed:

Normal Iron, Steel, Titanium or Dragon Plate armors.

All normal shields up to titanium.

Moon, Unicorn, Stars and Sun medallions.

Crowns of Life and Mana.

Any Cape.

Any normal Great Sword, with the exception of the Bronze Sword.

Any non-enchanted weapons. (any weapons listed in the "Weapons" page in the encyclopedia (that's page 1, not page 2; which has the "Enchanted Weapons"))

 

4. All castable magic spells ARE allowed.

 

5. Summoning (including stones) is NOT allowed.

 

6. Disengagement rings ARE allowed.

If you diss/flee and stay in the arena the fight can continue, if you diss/flee and walk out of the arena, even just for a second, you forfeit the battle.

You can disengage/flee from combat up to 3 times. If you diss/flee a 4th time you forfeit the battle.

 

7. All fights are 1-on-1, and one at a time.

Your friends/guildmates are not allowed to remote heal you or cast any offensive spells on your opponent.

Await instruction from myself (Korrode) before entering the arena, and before starting combat.

Signing up, and conclusion:

 

Please reply here if you would like to compete.

The first 8 people to apply will get the spots, anyone after that will be a backup in case someone doesn't show up on the day.

If you don't have a forum account, contact me in-game.

 

It is possible for a competitor to fight up to 5 times. Bring everything you need for that many fights.

If you don't have enough space in your inventory for everything you want, I will allow people to make storage runs, but i'd much prefer if you ask a guildmate or friend to come and watch and hold some items for you.

If you are going to goto storage please be quick about it, luckily EVTR storage is nearby.

 

Everyone will fight at least twice. So it's possible for you to die twice... you cant possibly die more than twice, because the way it's structured if you die twice you're out of the tournament.

Giving back the contents of deathbags will be up to the battle victor, so if your wearing expensive armors i suggest rostos.

Remember: You can diss and walk out of the arena to end the fight.

 

Spectators are welcome, but please do not sit on the side of the arena that has the entry.

Everyone Note; I will be asking for assistance from the game moderators to help deal with anyone who tries to cause trouble.

Once the dragon armours are out, count me in korrode!

[korrode]

Once the dragon armours are out, count me in korrode!

Well that'll be whenever the next event is i run.

 

tbh, the reason why the dragon armors were allowed in the first place is because with my char build/strategies, my opponent having dragon armor, even with me only having titanium, would not have much of an advantage.

 

But, A. i shouldn't be only considering people with PK or "Arena" builds in the rules... B. I cant expect that everyone will use appropriate strategy with their attribute selection... and C. Drag armor's too expensive, it's a key goal of these tournaments to ensure skill gives you the advantage, not riches.

 

So yeah, drag armors will go, but not until after this event.
