Also any marksman (assuming we allow them) has a good chance of killing most people with low AGI/CON.
i'm not sure about the ranged combat. As you said, it's dicey business.
Might just equip everyone with mediocre enough gear that the risk is minimal.

And judge winner by number of clinks to armor? :)

No guarantee they don't just equip better gear right before the fight. Might as well let people wear what they have, and have good stuff available for those with lesser gear.

I think that unless sparring is changed to involve a person getting knocked to their feet, as in floored but not unconscious, you pretty much have to use aggro. Then you have scents all over the place, most of which will be summonable.

To prevent people bringing their own gear, just require each to carry an inventory's worth of beetroots or something from one chest to another, in one go. Then it's obvious they're not carrying anything else. Make them wear thimbles too if you want the bout to be fought without thanes.

here bit missunderstanding, what would be if i KO-ed then killed opponent? You can talk me, that i can be killed by archers, but what would be if i have 350 MM 135q+ rb 177+ arrows? And TANKS ( with tons of agi, 140+ plate armor, 1000+ MC under ancestor) can just run away. So if you explain me that things, i might participate :)

I think he means that only sparring is allowed. If someone does real combat, he'll be killed by snipers.

tanks can't run because the arena will be an enclosed area, and can't teleport because they will be aggroed by guards.

no, not sparring. fight to KO. it's not that hard to not kill someone after you KO them.

don't matter where is area, tank can just kill all guys, and just run in the area (for not being aimed). So stop negative, 1vs1 pvp fights will be good, but it will take about 10-20 or even more, if ppls are skilled. I fighted with guy with 62q bronze plate+helm, and we just fighted about 20 minutes, and no one of us didn't damaged ( (soldier's sword 110q) even with 0% def bar, zing.......zing..zing) just armor bit damaged (around 500 hp), so i offer team 2x2 matches. Or another area,where archers can fight vs archers. It's good idea i think, because rb+arrows damage more ( i guess). Again fighted with that guy, with same armor, just shooted 2 times and damaged him 300-400 hp 2 times (damaged his plate for 1.7k :D) and i got alot of adrenaline from MM fight :D

Lol, I like this idea, a good chance to meet some of the other players of the community and have a friendly match. :)
