Enjoy your Best of TMO Tournament then.

I'm sure the staff will come up with some type of stalling provision. Lets keep this topic on track with the levels, not about gear.

gear isnt everything. also, i would be surprised if some IB dont return solely for these tournaments.

instead of being a negative nancy, just be happy something new is happening !

I am happy, any news on the date? sorry if posted somewhere else

No, but it's the most important thing. A VP-geared anything will have to be an utter moron to lose to someone that's even highly skilled. Making this whole exercise something that only a small percentage of level 60s can hope to win.

It was like that in Live, but I guess we'll just never know who's 'best' eh? I hope the participants enjoy themselves and have some epic battles among their other elitely geared brethren.

Pretty sure aside from epic/VP gear I match up very well gear wise against any druid on the server. Levels in a melee duel dont mean as much as in a caster duel, a 50 druid wouldn't last 1 cast against a 59+ druid. Unless you're going to do seperate tournaments for each level group I dont see the sense in including anyone below 55.

I think its should be 55+ I don't think there is much purpose other than making it take longer to allowing low levels to fight level 60s

Sorry ambrotos:
never been to vp, I think I can compete with vp geared rogues.... oh noes they have razor sharp short sword, obv I lose

best of the best shouldnt take place on any server until resists are addressed, RED 99 failed because of a failed resist system.

I found the official rules sets for SK and Ranger BotB.

Both are open to level 54+
