Make sure that when Dueling drops when One Tamriel releases, we need to band together, venture into Cyrodiil, recruit the top PVPers, and have them play watchdog on the Starter Zones, so trolls don't go around wrecking the newbies.

Do's:

Fight in an area where other people are not likely to mess with your duel.

Use any advantage in your arsenal to win. Expect your opponent to do the same.

Anticipate that your opponent has OP weapons and avoid every attack you can.

Don'ts:

Teabag your opponent. That's Cyrodiil behavior not befitting an honored duelist.

Treat duels like you do zergs in Cyrodiil. You're fighting one person, not twenty.

Just walk away when you win. Allow your defeated opponent the opportunity to revive him/herself and salute you.

My guildmates say that I have to use my WW build when we duel, including farming up the ult beforehand to ensure I have it ready for said duel. That's a challenge if I ever did hear one. Apparently they think I'm decent in my WW build... not sure how they got that idea, though. We are all just a bunch of PvE Care Bears, last I checked.

Do's:

Scream profanities into the microphone.
Initiate a trade in the middle of dueling
Fight nekked
Drink heavily (irl) before starting a duel

Don'ts

Run with scissors
Assume a woman is pregnant
Enroll in University of Pheonix
Inhale a bean burrito and black coffee just before your big presentation at work.

After a battle - "hey, where did @Autolycus go to?"..."oh, he's over to the side devouring bodies, left and right"...

Lol probably! On a good night I don't have to devour... on a bad night devour doesn't work. Meh.... it's all in the cards. Much like my talent as a pvper!

If you do not turn into that WW first. The other person will.

OMG that would be a perfect new emote when duelling goes live!

"I challenge you, to a duel!"

Don't expect someone to follow any dueling rules unless you've coordinated with them beforehand.

If you challenge a complete random stranger to a duel there are no rules.

^ This is the right answer.

No line of sighting your opponent is the only one I didn't see here yet.

not sure I understand LOS for dueling...are you talking about dodge rolling around like a monkey with a string of fireworks up their bum?

Don't hide behind stuff during the fight, unless it's an atronach you summoned

This seems like a pretty bad rule. A great variety of builds are geared to survive via such mobility. If you take that away, you're giving a clear advantage to people with mitigation/sustain builds.

I don't disagree.

I went behind a tree one time while fighting a bow user in Cyrodiil as I ran out of magicka and was trying to sustain myself. My opponent got incredibly angry after the fight. (Woops didn't know it was a rule sorry dude.) I told this to one of my known dueler friends and he told me it's considered disrespectful to use such tactics. I don't do it anymore, have better sustain and usually kill them before I am dry.

I wouldn't mind someone using LoS against me because well I have my mines waiting for them around the corner and/or a negate to fill the area to scare them out in the open. But in general it's very frowned upon and you will probably be insulted afterwards.

Is it a 'dont' to duel in a wide open area and Soul Assault them?

Loving my new ultimate damage, thanks for the boost!

Ya you got to stand and block it for 5 seconds. Running away from or LoSing an atronach is plain bad manners too
