BULL[SNIP]!!!!! You aren't going to deprive me with this "no pet soc" rule guar crap! You bring that op crusty as the crabs on Sponge Bob, Tangirl, with his flying rat twilight and his bff scamp and I am going to send him bouncing all over the arena like a pinball in a damn ESO themed pinball machine!... Next time you all see him he will look like Casper the Friendly Ghost.

Enzo! Carve some time out of your schedule from being Miat's Uber driver from resource resource... And I will show you what real cannoli should look like!

Betsy Bradock, or Betty Crocker, whatever your friends in the Pact call you! You pick up your iPhone, swipe down in your contacts, you push the screen on "Grom Troll Stinky Fingers", and you tell that PhD in DK [snip] that he wasn't forgotten.

Micah Waterlow, you embarrassed the COVENANT.

Dro Ranjii, however you pronounce that. We all want to see your high DoT build in no CP.

Lucian Pornbringer. I am not impressed with your running away, up and down, around and around, towers. Coming back for the killing blow. Leaning on the crutch of high sustain and resistance. Have a protein shake.

Quantum V stop hiring kids to run your businesses.

IcyDeadPeople

Sounds like fun, thanks for organizing it!

dpencil1

Boo at the pet sorc restriction.




....yes I am a pet sorc. Don't judge me!

Subversus

@dpencil1 yeah sucks that the most overpowered 1v1 class is banned so it'll be fair for everyone. Sucks really hard.

Damn wish we had server transfers between NA and EU, feelsbadman

WuffyCerulei

Frozy's got a lot of good points. Some sets give too much survivability for duels.

Hexys

Sound great! Hope you gonna stream it Faso!

I honestly don't know who came with the idea that Transmutation was overpowered in a duel, but not something like Meridia's blessing, smh.

No SnB offensive bar. M'kay, not like it affects classes equally or something.

No spell wall but resto ult is fine for some reason.

If you want to limit overperforming sets in duels, might as well limit to crafted sets only on the body and any 3p jewelry.

HiImRex

Good luck friends, game is far from balanced esp in cp 1v1 but I hope at least everyone will have fun.

No Pirate Skelly, but Troll King is perfectly fine?
No Traps but Mines and Eternal Hunt are okay?
You can't Minor Defile your opponent with Fasallas but Minor Maim from Wizard's Riposte is acceptable?
Shieldbreaker bad, Knightslayer good?

Let's start at 30 meters apart, because that won't affect a class with no ranged skills or working gap closer? Lessee... Warden spams cliff racer at DK while DK holds block and crawls forward for 30m. Thrilling.

The problem with any list of "bad cheese" is that it inevitably has holes in it while excluding non-cheesy builds.

Agreed, Brookus. He just felt the urge to comment something, idk.

NBrookus

Don't get me wrong @Quantum_V , some limitations are good. Even if I were good at dueling (I'm not) I wouldn't join a tournament that was a free-for-all with so many rng proc set stacking builds. Rolling dice to see who wins... meh. But rules should be more general, like "only one damage proc set" and similar.

The exclusion of pet sorcs but nothing else is pretty funny, tbh. I guess a pet sorc won the last tourney.

Because stamina classes using S&B can weave / animation cancel attacks that scale off their weapon damage and deal absurd damage while magicka classes have their attacks deal mediocre damage because it scales off their spell damage.

Any set that give a defensive buff should be excluded. Only sustain / offensive sets should be allowed.

No spell wall but resto ult is fine for some reason.

Resto ult should be banned too.

hey @NBrookus - I literally copy and pasted the rules I applied in my last dueling tournament a couple months ago. If you feel like there are some missing, feel free to add them. I never said that my list should cover it all.

I guess he doesn't want to have to duel a magicka DK? Or certain other magicka builds that use that front bar.

It was a 3-pet pet sorc with Matriarch, Scamp, and Atronach, not one of the manageable ones that only use one.

Lmao, I was right? Well hey, all those high test duelers like to 1vX right?

Drummerx04

Weird, I came into this thread expecting to see endless complaints about magsorc being OP 1v1 please nerf... then again Faso plays magsorc, so I guess it's okay now?

Either way, I expect the combined egos of the participants to form a tear in the fabric of Oblivion and crash the servers, so I think I'll refrain from what will inevitably turn into Cyrodiil hate whispers on a later date.

I get enough of, "Oh are you afraid to pvp against me and my 8 buddies without your 8 buddies you suck I hope you die," without this tournament contributing, thanks though.

You can't say that the class that you play is OP, its against the rules dude.

Kind of yeah. The sheer number of hate filled messages I get spewed at me every week by people hiding offline so I can't reply is pretty staggering. Then of course there are the ones that initiate contact with their dead sea of salt, THEN after a few back and forth whispers put me on ignore.

The air of moral superiority and self assuredness reminds me of SJWs and Flat Earth Conspiracy theorists, and that *** gets old real fast.

I don't simply hide offline myself because I actually have friends who periodically like to contact me, and occasionally I get some friendly whispers from my foes.

Well, your dreadful past experiences don't exactly pertain to nor were caused by Quantum or Faso or their tournament. Must you vent in his thread and further spread the negativity here? FYI I'm sure they won't tolerate any open toxicity at the event, and your own /ignore feature works just fine.

Escorpiao_Noturno

nice...Are you going to stream ?

SanTii.92

Why is there a no poison of any kind rule? What's wrong with dmge only ones.

Thogard

Oooo count me in

Good call on the immovable potions btw.

I think that a pet sorc that only runs one pet should be allowed but I understand the need for the blanket ban. (I'm not a pet sorc)

I wonder who'll win. My money is on a Stam warden... that healing ult is just too low cost to give to a class with such burst. But I could also see a Mag DK or a Mag NB winning
