I think the way you have this divided is a really good idea. The only thing I would change is in the mix/melee fight, you should allow potions, scrolls, and all magical items, only for this fight. If you have mages and fighters in the same fight, it's not really fair mages can use spells, and fighters can't. Fighters would be at a major disadvantage in this fight. either way i like this set up. Pure physical fight, pure magical fight, divine fight, and the mixed fight I think anyone should be able to join regardless of class, and they can use whatever items they want. Only restrictions on the fight would be the ones on the whole tourney, which was Timestop, Bigbys, healing. The mixed fight is not for pure fighter vs. pure wizard. It is for fighter/mage vs. figher/mage vs. cleric. Pure fighters and pure wizards each have their own fight, separate from each other. ah i see. so a pure fighter/pure wizard is not allowed to join the mixed fight? |

Correct. The Mixed Fight is for Cross Class Fighter/Mage style characters, Clerics, Druids, and Bards, Paladins, or Rangers if they so choose. Basically this fight is for class combinations that will be using spells AND melee. The AMRS fight is for Barbarians, Fighters, Rangers, Paladins, Monks, Rogues. The Rogues now have an advantage. I have changed the layout of the arena to allow them to get out of sight and reengage stealth. so you can sneak up on a couple of fighters, stab stab stab, run, hide, sneak stab stab stab, rinse repeat. The MAGIC fight is purely a magical battle of spells versus spells. And no kidding, if the last two mages resort to slap fighting, there will be repercussions. I seek BLOOD. The EPIC fight is just that. 99% no holds barred, anything goes, all against all, all classes, EPIC fight. Items, potions, scrolls, EVERYTHING is allowed in this fight EXCEPT: TIME STOP, GREATER SANCTUARY, BIGBY'S FORCEFUL HAND, and HEALING. This gives fewer broken up battles, more fairness, and more people for each battle. I was afraid of having only 2 clerics from lvl 8-14 show up or something. This I think is the best break down so far. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to add a rogue's maze. However, I can't manage all of those at once, but I feel another event coming up with just such a thing.  |

*bounces up and down in seat with excitement and therefore posts too much* Hey DM Boozehound, what do you think of the idea of having the winners from each class division meet for a brawl of champions, after each class brawl is done? |

so if i have an epic mage, i have to either choose to participate in the epic free for all, or the pure magic fight, is that correct? still only 1 fight you can enter per character right?
and what about the devils and demons. you said we can use them, but is it fine if we enter under a fake name & outfit, to avoid the IC reprocussions?

maybe a repost of all the categories is in order.
Pretty sure if you're above epic, you're stuck to only the epic fight. First page has the levels break down.

Seems like a very fun event! I will be there to see it thats for sure, unless RL ninjas me. If my Sorc wasn't so squishy I would even participate with her as well. Very curious to see how it will happen!  --- What time will it happen, Europe time? *looks at Kel and makes puppy eyes*--- |

Ok here is the FINAL Lay out (I hope)
High Horn Tourney Starts at 8pm Central US time. Use Google to figure out what time that is for you.
The castle will open an hour early.
There will be a PORTAL in Suzail City Core in the center of the fountain to High Horn.
Please feel free to purchase your own mundane gear for the tourney. No you will not get a refund, but it is cheap and you can craft it to look awesome for the fight, otherwise, you are gonna be wearing dorky mundane gear that I will hand out. But if you bring your own, it will save a LOT of time!
Mundane Gear is: WEAPON, ARMOR, SHIELD.
You may use bows, crossbows, slings, darts, swords, maces, axes, etc. You may have a ranged weapon and a melee weapon, or two melee if you dual wield.
Categories are:
lvl 1-7
lvl 8-14
lvl 15-20
EPIC
Battles are:
MELEE: NO MAGIC WHAT SO EVER. No casting spells, no magic items.
MAGIC: A PURE SPELL BATTLE. No magic items.
MIX MAGIC/MELEE: For those who wish to use both spells and strength of arms. No magic items.
EPIC: This is a no holds barred fight. All classes, all items, let's see some epic skills.
BANNED SPELLS: TIME STOP, BIGBY'S FORCEFUL HAND, GREATER SANCTUARY. This includes the EPIC brawl.
For time reasons, I am scratching the song category for right now. I know that sucks. I will host another event for you I swear. However, bards could do quite well in the mixed category. I am sorry, sorry , sorry.
PRIZES: The winner of each category brawl will receive an item of their choice. A weapon, a shield, or a piece of armor. The PROPERTIES of the item will scale to level, and be chosen by ME. They will also be very serious bragging rights items, cause you proved you were the best.
Thank you for your input and your help, I hope we have a fun event!
*hic*

When I read this break down I still need a little clarification sorry.
I see we have four fights, magic, arms, mixed/melee, and an epic fight.
these four fights are broken down into levels
lvl 1-7
lvl 8-14
lvl 15-20
EPIC
So to me that means, for the pure magic fight a brawl will be held for lvls 1-7, 8-14, 15-20, and an epic pure magic fight also will be held.
So for arms would be the same deal, 4 fights for Arms split up into levels, last fight would be an epic arms battle.
Obviously for the epic fight there would not be a level break down, but is that layout the way you are meaning it? Or is it anyone who is epic can only participate in the epic fight, and not in the arms, magic, or mixed melee fight?

I think /all/ epics participate in the epic fight. No epic magic brawl.

If your character is level 21, regardless of class, he or she will be shoved into an arena with a bunch of other epics, someone will say "fight" and then screamy doom happens until only one is standing.

Late, and possibly a silly idea, but of the idea that winners of one bracket being allowed to participate in the next, (so bob wins arms as a level 7, can go to try the 8-14 bracket). Is this at all though of or is this no, due to over complication.

there is only one fight for people lvl 21+
if you are 21+ you get one fight against everyone else that is 21+
We shove you all into the arena together, I yell FIGHT and the $#!% hits the fan.
and you only get to compete in one fight. If time allows, I may allow all the winners to jump into the ring together and see who comes out.

//Sounds exactly like my cup of tea, but my connection is really poor right now and I know I'll lag crash.
I hope everything runs really smoothly. Have fun!

The lag might not be so bad...we won't be spawning things, which helps a lot, and the area I chose has very few placeables. You might be surprised!
