The Pit

As promised in the last message of the mall, here is the next project by the event team which will be next weekend. The mall was for traders etc. Now "The pit" is for the PvPers. The entrance will be again in TH2 between the Genreps. "The Pit" is prepared with a big fight arena with a few platforms around it, a small training arena and more (thx Surface!).

The opening of "The Pit" will be with a “last man standing” in groups of 5. The winners of these groups of 5 have to fight each other in the final round. The last 3 men (the 3 winners) will be rewarded with:
1. WoC 3 PA, golden Cup
2. Copbot Trophy, silver Cup
3. Master Hunter Trophy, bronze Cup

RULES:
- no stealth
- no area of effect stuff (AOE)
- before the fight, once IN the arena you have to type "/set kill_self 1" to remove foreign casts, drugs or anything else.
- only Gamemasters are allowed to resurrect!
- no other runners except the fighters will be allowed to be in the arena during the fights.
- everyone has to abide by the event rules (http://ng.neocron.com/index.php?id=84): PK, Raids etc are forbidden - offenders will be removed without prior warning.
- only 1 char per account allowed!
- we will wait only 5 minutes for a participant. If he isn’t there, he will be disqualified.
- the chairs of the jury are only for the Gamemasters!
(- no PPUs of course ;) )

Fights:
Mars: Friday, 06.04.07 - 8pm CEST
Terra: Saturday, 07.04.07 - 10pm CEST
Mercury: Sunday, 08.04.07 - 6pm CEST

Registrations have to be sent up to 2 hours before the start to contest@reakktor.com (subjectline "The Pit") with the following details:

Sounds good... rember to set the zone to wastelands so SL and faction symps don't get screwed been to enough pvp events where GM's have totally forgotten this and then the next few days they've been getting spamed with fix soulight and symp tickets which ofcourse only devs can fix

Uhm, won't red sl belts drop even in warzones?

I'm not that sure but i know we once hacked a belt with a 4 slot moonie and 5 slot ravager from a tank who accidently shot the YO's vendors at some op. But that was quite some time ago, they might've changed the drop rules. :lol:

Awesome news for this event.

Reference to the quote. i shot and killed keithz (dont know how if anyone remembers him :) ) once at tezla factory years back in nc1 and he dropped a belt. damn we never got to it as one of the other uTs got it first but it dropped for sure ;)

CritiNator
03-04-07, 19:25
Belts drop at warzone and those are open to all, if your SL is -90+ ( atleast mine dropped and PPU found it empty, when he arrived 10 secs after me.

03-04-07, 20:39

You actually could make a spy work without an SA these days, especialy if he has WoC.

ANyway, sounds good. Guess I'll have to try and get an actual worthwhile con setup on my PE... (hurry up with that skill manager stevenJ :P)

You say remove drugs, what if you need 2 str to make pa4 stick and have to pop a thyronol, what is the rule on that?

Safunte
04-04-07, 21:17
its so drugs dont run straight away, you take new ones right before you fight.

Dogface
04-04-07, 23:32
So if you're losing you can't moan "omg drugs lolo".

CMaster
04-04-07, 23:37
Actually thats a good point. AFter being rezzed, my PE can't use his weapon until he zones because his DIP isn't activated.

I think it´s answered :angel:

[F6]Knight

i think he means he has a PK with red SL and wants to know if his belt will drop since some people are saying that belts can drop in OP zones if you have a certain amount of red SL

Yes, this is what i ment.
I have character with -82 now. Tomorrow it can be -40, +10 or maybe -99, but most likely, ill be red. There for, my belt can drop if im SL -90+. I know that belts drop in OP zones, if your SL is very low. I just wanna know, what happens to my belt. I dont wanna lose my belt in some event!?

Dribble Joy
05-04-07, 13:26
Entry sent, though why... I'm not entirely sure....

Nullvoid
05-04-07, 13:27
Since it's a special event, why not make the effort to get enough SL so there is no risk of it dropping?

edit - I'll cheer you on DJ, using a judge for an event like that is ballsy :cool:

I´m really sorry, but it´s on your own risk ? Try to get better SL until saturday or join with another character if you cant get better SL. But we wont give an effort for better SL here - as usual (RoC).

CEST is GMT + 1 isnt it?

( still dont understand why you can't post times in GMT since everybody can look up GMT variences by going to the clock )

Dribble Joy
06-04-07, 14:45
CET = GMT + 1
CEST = BST + 1

UK is in BST atm, so they are still one hour ahead. So it's 9pm for Terra.

i hope i make it
or ill be upset:(

Safunte
06-04-07, 19:32
it starts 4pm eastern US...


For future events, I would suggest setting up a time frame, with the estimated possible times. And then in the email to sign up, everyone signs up to all the timeframes they could make. Clearly the most popular timeframe is chosen for the actual event. (Sorry GMs, it might make you stay up a bit late)


ex.

Times:
I. A-B
II. B-C
III. C-D

It starts for Terra at 10pm CEST and no time frames, sorry, but i think this is ok. We moved the events on Terra 2-3 hours later for the time zones and these are sometimes ending in the middle of the night for some.

I managed to not die first in the big FFA at the end, though Powerpunsh (afaik, his name showed as the one who killed me) pretty much went after me while I generally shot whatever happened to fall under my recticle.

Logs from before during and after my fight. Trimmed of various stuff.

Even if you hit every single shot with a Judge the dmg just doesn't seem to be representative of a tl100 weapon. Even if you have skillings near to or more than that of a spy (210 pc, 124 TC).

The guy in NeoFrag against nabbl wasn't doing so badly with a Judge (almost killed him in fact), maybe it's just how you use it. :p

the guy was me, i was playing non pa judge pe more than a year til evo 2.2 comes out

its still possible even without drugs, but losing 2 resist chips really really hurts cuz Wyatt is the better weapon (singleshot owns in 2.2 cuz kk fucked up dot statistics with reload issues)

losing nearly 5% resists on each con based resist sounds not rly much, but it is from what ive seen after few playtests with this setup

judge is acceptable in 1 on 1 situation but in a brawl u hit shit......

WE setup > Judge setup

I hate KK for fucking up my favourite weapon



oh, and we did several fights and i won also a few :lol:

No PA no drug Judge... ouch....

CCP, SWAT, SF, Co-Ord 3?

That said, no defence chips isn't too bad, I run CCP, SF, SWAT, CC3, PA3. 157% dmg, 214 rpm.

But yeah, the reloading wasn't taken into account, and as a result it all got a bit fucked up (http://forum.neocron.com/showpost.php?p=2074229&postcount=17).

yeah, but better use the regant pa, boost up resist a lil bit and dont give - on agl like the cotton underwear....

i have something between 150-160 pc with 120 wep, thats enough if u put a laserpointer in ur weapon (recticle will close faster with this)

i wouldnt go for more pc than 160-170 cuz the loss of speed is to much for my senses, ill take para x forte for outnumbered situations to get some speed boost, works better than redflash for my opinion

the loss of resist doesnt matter much in 1 on 1 combat, but if ure fighting more ppl attacking with various dmg sorts u got the bill for shitty Judge and 4 x 5% = 20% lowered resists, thats the big problem here.....

just my opinion, with my we setup i can handle situation where im outnumbered much much better than with the judge setup.....

I have 210pc, 124 tc but still manage 126 agl. Not uber speedy gonzalez, but not slow. Should pick up with the imp rework anyway when I can spec some ath.

Also, it only appears to be 20% defence loss, but you're not going to be hit with all four dmg types from one person, and not of the same ratio. When I swapped my PPR for a CC3 the defence loss was about 5-6% total. But gained about 5.25% offence.

Well, lower defence setups are allways going to have issues in big fights, but hopefully your higher dmg output should make up for it before you hit the deck.... of course that means fuck all if you use a Judge....
