Should teleport be allowed across the board?

[mepersoner]

Hello, the rather large decision that could determine the fate of pvpwest is teleport. The mods are locked on the issue (Me: Yes, Inf-Badguy: Yes, Sol: No, Zerius: No) and for the 5th vote we come to the public.

Please vote and give your opinion on the subject, thank you.

PS, I just thought of this, I'm not sure of the new pvp mod's stance on using the pvp forum for discussing pvpwest rules, so if he would kindly send me a PM if there's a problem so we can talk about it, that'd be great.

[mepersoner]

After a quick mod discussion, we've decided to allow teleport until Friday.

We'd like everyone who is in pvpwest, or considering joining pvpwest, to participate, whether you're in favor of teleport or not. Friday the mods and the results of this poll will decide the fate of teleport in pvpwest. (Expect the the results that night, not that day).

During this time we will be using the basic legit rules originally posted and not the class specific rules. However, CTA will still not be allowed during this time.

Edit: Just as a note to clarify, these will be the rules to follow:

Basic legit dueling rules:

All duels take place in Nightmare.

No item which grants the Slows Target effect is allowed on any character that duels by dealing physical damage.


No hacked items, such as the Schaeffer's Hammer jewels, all Ith
de-runeworded items, and all other obviously hacked items, e.g. the Stones of Jordan with the stats of the Oculus.


No bugged items, such as the 500% cold absorb circlet, and the 64% life leech amulet.


Only one item that grants an elemental absorb type is allowed.


All items which grant a chance to cast a curse on striking are banned.


A maximum of 200 poison damage is from gear and charms.


Leaving the Blood Moor during a duel is considered a loss, except for prebuffing.


Version 1.08 unique items are not allowed.


No use of Shrines, Wells, or any kind of potion is allowed.


No mercenaries or minions that cannot be cast in town are allowed.

Use of warcries by a class other than barbarian is not allowed.

The only bad about banning widely used items is that you have to make chars devoted to both leagues and pub duels, rather than use your chars everywhere.

add *souless-pvp, *xxholyxx5, *efavivi4 to the bot please mep :)

[mepersoner]

Consider yourself added..

[ReVolution]

Add *XE-Revolution pls.

[mepersoner]

You've been added. :)

[LLD-Vampire]

Bleh you should exclude the slow rule when the person your against is melee, there are some really good weapons which have slow (astreons).

[mepersoner]

Err?

No item which grants the Slows Target effect is allowed on any character that duels by dealing physical damage.
Also, I think I should edit that to say any character that uses damage that relies on a weapon or shield...

[xshinakuma]

Hi, please add *Chrono_Break2.

[mepersoner]

You've been added.

[Dimoak]

You've been added.
Was bo allowed or not? Since this is the 'beta' phase, why not try it with CTA allowed, if your opponent uses it?

[Rauth]

Add *rauthgar2 please.

What time are most people on? I'd like to see how the rules work for myself.


I think we should be able to use cta if both duelers agree to it. Technically it wouldn't unbalance anything if they Both have it. It doesn't really matter to me if it gets included in the final rules but trying it first would be good.

[xshinakuma]

Yes, I would like to be able to use CTA for Bo as well. Especially if we cannot use mana pots, having a bigger mana pool would help. Teleporting burns mana fast =/.

[mepersoner]

No CTA helps barbs keep some sort of advantage.

I think maybe we should ban the use of charges on items too. O-o

[LLD-Vampire]

Err?

But I mean come on melee on melee who really cares about slow?

[mepersoner]

Doesn't slow work on attacks now too?

I run a lot and move around a lot in melee vs. melee, anyone who's any good does...

[Neuroff]

Add *neuroff, *neuroff1, *neuroff2

Bleh! I know I'm just trying to get it so I can use astreons :)

If teleport's banned it doesn't mean u cant use enigma, u just cant use the teleport from it.. and seeing as it's still the best allround armour for 80% or so of non ama/sorc char builds it usually isnt much of a problem.

[mepersoner]

The vote seems pretty in favor of teleport so far. O_O

I'll add you in the morning if another mod hasn't by then neuroff, it's bedtime now, and I have a migraine.

[thesecondrei]

Add *TheFinalrei

[biko]

add *mist_dragon please

[mepersoner]

All of you have been added. =)

[Module88]

You really need to fix "Only one item that grants an elemental absorb type is allowed. " to "Only one absorb item PER element type is allowed.

[mepersoner]

Yeah, that's what it means, but I can't edit.

Mod help please?

[soulesschild]

but Barbs still have a huge arse advantage in BO over people who dont though....i dunno i still think like in class v class duels, it should be allowed, else them n00bs like eternal and tenken get pwned.... ;)

[mepersoner]

...and Fenris. Man he cried so much in game today about no CTA I almost had to slap him.

Hey Dimoak. <3
