Default 2v2v2v2... Random Team-Up Event - Zland Talisman

2v2v2v2... Random Team-Up Event


Denizens of Norrath, the time has come for you to prove yourself in the Arena. On Saturday, August 31, 2024 at 1PM EST, there will be a 2v2v2v2... tournament, and the winning team will get a Zlandicar's Talisman. Sign up to fight for glory - and an ST Key.


Rules:
- Participants will be randomly paired with a partner ~30 minutes before the event. The pairings will be random, with no regard for class composition or guild tags.

- All teams will fight at the same time in a free-for-all type event, with the last team/player standing declared the winner.

- Must be level 60 to participate.

- The event will be held at the Rathe Mountain Arena, on the elevated platform. It may be expanded to the whole Arena if we get a lot of participants.

- Competing teams will be debuffed before the match.

- Before the event starts, there will be a 30 second period for buffs and pet summons.

- Detrimental spells cannot be cast during the buffing period.

- No clickies or consumables of any kind are permitted, except epics, jboots, and crystalized pumice.

- no wolf form, no skeleton form.

- Starting positions are allowed anywhere that is legal.

- We are allowing the use of rogue poisons, except for any that blind.

- The following spell types may not be used: Any form of Charm. Any form of Fear unless directed at a pet. Any type of Blind spells. Gravity Flux or Invert Gravity.

- Any use of exploits or bugs will result in immediate disqualification from the event.


Entry fee:

shadowstep is allowed for this event, but if you RNG out of bounds, you're disqualified.

1) offer a zlandi talisman as a reward
2) convince people to show up for a fee
3) set up a set of rules that arbitrarily disadvantage some classes (ie no buffs or pets until short moments before the start forcing casters to burn huge wads of their mana bar right before go time)
3) secretly conspire to “randomly” pair up 2 overpowered BiS raid geared top tier PvP classes not burdened by the aforementioned rules
4) “give” the zlandi talisman reward to the “winners”
5) host and “randomly paired” conspirators walk away with 500p-1k plat per participant


Dumbass rules:
-only 30 seconds to prep? I understand no external buffs but 30 seconds is bullshit. Casters and pet classes might as well not show up.
-no skeleton or wolf form? Why? If it isn’t a click this is a dumb restriction
-allowing pumice but not allowing instaclicks to protect buffs?
-no blind? Why? Why take away advantages of some classes but not others?
-no charm? See above
-no flux? See above.
-no fear? See above

I do understand no “consumables”. Stacks of wort potions, for example, would cheese the whole thing.

If this were hosted by GMs/CSR -OR- there wasn’t a fee to participate it could sound like fun.

Sorry, but this smells like bullshit

Yes. Randomize names in Excel sheet on stream.

You're better off just turning this into a warrior only event honestly..... And selling the Talisman to provide plat to the winners... I honestly don't mind entrance fee, since it's time your spending to host, organize and run the event.

Are there two talismans? Or are the randomly paired winners expected to split it?

They'll have to 1v1 for it in a final duel. Winner takes all.
