Assuming that the person tracking Statue / KT spawn is honest when it pops. Right now Riot is the one who has the most incentive to track / sock with their larger base of players and greater chance to kill AoW at any given time rather than waiting for more members to come online. If KT / Statue started shouting like CT does, it becomes a non issue however [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I am looking forward to racing myself, but I think 4 is plenty myself. As long as guilds are all aware of who is racing at any given time and there are no breakdowns in communication, should be ez pz.

But yeah its weird that they dont suspect people are cheating other mobs though.

Think all issues concerned could be solved by my previous suggestion. Let more racers race. Racing is fun.

Why are the new raid rules not posted to the public... in the raid discussion forums? And we're all surprised there was confusion on the first race.

Stop the back channel conversations and make it public already.

Because this takes too much sense.

Are we gonna mario kart for vulak?
imo it's a lot better of 5 hours of trains, and it gives a chance to every guild to compete. Unlike the year of free vulaks Riot has gotten. (Not hating btw)

Mostly due to the fact the staff think people are cheating at Cothing with pixel detection software. Funny thing is kael is the only zone... not EJ, icewell, dreadlands...... just kael...
From what I understand, it's just a test run to see how it works out.

From: Galach in the UN
Kael: King Tormax & Statue (natural spawn only)
Run up from WL side where snow/dirt starts (old run up spot)
Sow max speed ( no crown of rile shadow step etc)
dmf/levitate required
6 max runners
Max runners would be tied to AOW as well (can’t team up for AOW if your combined runners were more than 6)
Need to pull with your FTE

The final agreement in the UN:
Kael changes
============
Kael is now a <race> - max 4 racers - pull with FTE - no crown of rile - have to levi - max speed: sow - start line snow/grass (the old line)

Only 4 racers from each guild / alliance can go beyond the zoneline until after FTE is out. Do not go beyond the zoneline until after FTE is out unless you are a racer.

* first 8 hours - delayed race
* second 8 hours - instant race
< dealyed race >: 1 tracker, as soon as statue/KT pops make a shout message (Statue pop) /ran 1000 beginning 3 min after pop shout. 900-1000 rolls indicate race start.
< instant races >: race on pop
