for Expert_BOT:
Maybe we could play a few. I have full castle for Demon and Tribal, but I will need to take a potion of skill for tribal if you wanted that as a teammate |
Only shop arts right? |
Yes, or equivalent |
Do we have to stay with the same team mate the entire time for the preset option?
Not that I am looking to switch at all, just assumed once set it had to stay so didn;t think it would allow me to choose anyone else at the join option, however it does.
Should time be an issue towards the end it gives some potential options I guess for picking up any missing battles. |

are you asking questions so you can answer them yourself and feel smart? :p |
So I was looking to do some random matchups. What would everyone recommend between going as dark demon and taking defense and focusing on spells for the most part, or going as tribal with defense and trying the shaman tactic? I would take PoS with tribal |
Dark demon with tempts probably a good shout imo |

No you do not but I'd appreciate it if you did xD |
for Santremus:
ohh you guys doing good |
I'm going no where, that last battle was beautiful to get our revenge.
for virtual_vitrea: Thanks, though I genuinely didn;t know the answer and couldn;t confirm myself without actually clicking the join button, which I didn't want to do. So had suspicions but no firm answer.
And of course I like asking questions I know the answer to, I am a teacher, its a large part of my job! |
You do preset paired with whoever you want, even one new guy every time if you fancy. |
I did not thought it would be possible to win a tournament battle with just one ring (ring of inspiration) and galoshes of battle but apparently it is. |
Looking for a CL 7 partner for my additional character. |
Any knight succeeding at 16 level? I am getting nicely smashed.. |
Nicely smashed - the perfect point of inebriation
I would expect knights to struggle to be honest in duels. Best bet would be holy I would think, but even so I would expect it to be tricky.
Console yourself that you will be infinitely better than this knight who poor Rage_the_legend got teamed with. Bad build and no antifaction means one super squishy knight.

I meant in paired group battles, not duels, whoops (though I think the CL16 duel data is not good for knights either) |
I considered it my duty to demonstrate that Knights can be defeated in every battle by every opponent in every configuration, but I think that I'll spare a thought for my poor partners and desist from further fights. |
Some observations from these battles and conclusions
a) There are often 10 to 20 times more people involved in the random allocation compared to the preset
b)There is a reasonable proportion of characters who have weak builds or lack PvP skill in the random allocation
What this means is that I would expect a lower proportion of people getting golds and silvers overall compared to previous paired tournies (harder preset battles, and more likely to get unlucky with partner in random). This may increase the value of the gold reward for these awards.
Secondly if they split the prize pool, then even the bronze award for the preset will be quite a lot as there will be less people getting it.
Does anyone know how they split up the gold - is a bronze award(or any other) for the preset and random going to be the same or different? |
b)There is a reasonable proportion of characters who have weak builds or lack PvP skill in the random allocation
100% true. Atleast people who plays CG are good at PvP most of the times, and rarely players with weak cheap arts, which seemed to be very frequent case as far as PTs are concerned.
Thats why I left playing now in between. I'd rather play CG now, because anyways they haven't updated fsp/exp ratio for PTs like they did for CGs, which pretty much sucks now as compared to normal 2x2 CGs. |
Does teams play vs teams and random vs random ? |
