King of the Hill Death Matches
Working on the next event and wanted to include the community in on it, see what you think and maybe get some feed back, I will be doing this as well in the future if it plays out well.
The idea is to have 3v3 Deathmatches up on the floating island, where the thrill of falling off can add to the fights.
Depending on interest we can easily set up a ladder system where three loses and you team is out or one lose.
There are no true line of sight obstacles but the Lillie pads in the middle are one for movement.
As far as rules on gear and classes, my view point is no matter how hard you try to balance PvP in TERA it will never happen so I tend to make no rules as far as clases and gear, just come out and have fun, laugh with friends, make new ones.
Since I am on [CH] this is where I would focus the event but that does not mean it has to be locked only to that server. If you like the idea and want to make it happen on another server lets chat.
Combat rules so far are;
- Once you die you out
- If you fall you are out
- Still thinking about banning Thunderbolt from archers as it pushes people off since no other skills do so, but I am also entertained by Chaos so probably won't. Only way you can fall off in other terms is walk or run off, no KDs do not push you off, nor do iFrames.
Rewards as well will be more attuned to a raffle system, where every one that helps and participates gets entered into a raffle for prizes.
The idea itself as far as story wise we will do a write up on the popular Amani game of Huumka, where two combatants face off against one another bare handed as shown in the older loading screen below
If you like to help, have an idea you like to add or anything, please let us know.
On a side note, Deathmatches like this used to be very prevalent the first year TERA released. By doing these events I am trying to inspire as well as show people the little things we can do to have fun beyond the dungeon grind.

One thing we where looking at was just using the inner ring and making it 1v1 Sumo Style Fight. This would allow people to stand up on top near the edge and watch, as well as add to the fight by cheering on their fav or betting between each other (Which is against ToS so BAD BAD you if you do it), may still go this route as well as the idea is fresh. Though thinking about it a War could just Back Stab and follow through with two KDs, hrm.......
