Now suddenly they are allowed, and anyone without a spare 200,000pp or in one of the giant guilds need not apply. I would just like to say to you Ambrotos, there goes thousands and thousands of platinum and hours and days of work based on the rules you had originally posted. Not only have you cost me that, but now it's completely pointless to enter the competition that I had so been looking forward to.
Congratulations mage BotB winner, you're the best mage who owns an epic. Many others would have had a very good shot at it.

Although I would've expressed this more politely, I also disagree with allowing the epic pet. It gives an enormous advantage to whoever has it, and the majority of mages 54+ don't have access to it. It requires a drop from Innoruuk who's tracked 24/7 and killed within minutes of spawning. Some mages outside of the top two guilds have an epic, but that's because they were lucky enough to get the earth staff from inny kills before epics were released and the mob wasn't as highly contested. I can't imagine a mage without an epic winning against a mage who has one since they have no CC spells and the epic pet is clearly better than all the others.
I'm not just saying this because I'm in a smaller guild, since at least four of our mages have epics. I just think it would seriously imbalance the tournament, and if it wasn't allowed on Live, it shouldn't be allowed here.
