Staff of the Silent Star was allowed on live BOTB, so don't see why ROA would be banned here.

Because the Staff was never removed from game because it was deemed overpowering.

You apparently have mained on a blue server your entire eq career .......
I played rz then sz when it opened then merged to zek and played there till 5 months ago when I came to p99 red
Pvp is not about being able to prep for fighting a certain class in a controlled environment
The best pvper of each class is the guy that can take any situation and come out on top
Sounds like what your seeking is a blue style duel not a pvp event or a BotB
How is botb not a "blue style duel"? It certainly isnt real world pvp like on red (see all the rule restrictions) Im not a pvper, and never claimed to be. I play eq because I enjoy finding new ways of doing things in what is largely a static system. If I wanted to pvp, I'd play on red, but I don't, so I don't see how my desire to understand the format of a competition relates to what you said.

We all get it, you red guys are super hard core and skilled, but that has nothing to do with a blue server event.

I'd go so far as to say that applies to any type of player. Having a plan is nice and it's swell when things go according to that plan, but the really good players can use what they know on the fly to, like you said, come on top when things turn chaotic.

Sirken confirmed to me that fear is not permitted at all, including against pets/mobs. I wasn't sure based on the initial wording.

Wait, what? Sirken please confirm. The Necro BotB allowed fear on pets and it had the same rules cut/pasted sentence this one does. Why would that not be allowed here? Please clarify.

Lol.

Can't use charm
Can't use mez
Can't use fear

So are we going to have infinitely long matches to see who can kill who via anarchy nukes? Which really means a contest of who runs out of rune reagents first.

Confirmed that we won't be allowing the use of fear on any target.

Should read more carefully. Except for Fear, all of these things were specifically disallowed from being used against players - it says nothing of them not being allowed at all. Also, it's hilarious when people mention boring/long fights if mez isn't usable on players. Every Red player knows Enchanters in 1v1 who use mez alot make for super exciting fights. Because you use that time to go make a sandwich and watch a movie until the enchanter is ready to actually fight.

Many people seem to be working off the assumption that this will be your standard BotB setup with one player character vs another player character on the other side of the platform, with no variables of any kind. This isn't the case, and anyone who has been working a theory based on that prediction will be very surprised come fight time.

Good luck to all of our contestants. Quoting Sirkens bracket so my post doesn't make it less visible.
