So I've been thinking about the BotB and awesome we're having them, but do they truly determine who is the best?
Best PvP sure, but not really best of their class.

Ideas:

Ranger - Track down something and use their bow to hit it from a distance for a tag. Fastest to do this, plus some other skill categories.

Rogue - Sneak into a room of KoS mobs, pick pocket something from a named then backstab/assasinate him without getting caught.

Warrior - Other than PvP can't think of anything.

ShadowKnight - ??

Paladin - ??

Cleric - BotB seems like a good format for this.

Enchanter - Charm a mob and kill something, while maintaining mez on others.

Mage - ??

Necro - ??

Druid - ??

Wizard - ??

Bard - ??

Shaman - ??

Monk - ??

Never denied that, but how fast can you do a quick backstab and hide again...

lol sounds pretty lame. a true BoTB should give all participants lvl 60 and the same loot, and then have a real botb champ at the end. would prove more skill imo

Necros can see who the best is at pulling Boogies thru fear.

I had this idea too. Enchanters especially suck at PVP. IMO the real Enchanter BOTB is quite simple: have GMs pop every named in Howling Stones, and the fastest to kill Drusella wins. Would have to have the GM summon corpse on death though.

I know at least 6 enchanters capable of doing this solo, so the time would actually matter - probably something like 2 hours would win.

It wouldn't be much of a spectator event though.

Druid: How fast can you bring a raid force of 50 people from Everfrost to Old Sebilis
Wizard: How fast can you bring a raid force of 50 people from Old Sebilis to Plane of Hate.

My main thought is, the BotB tourneys are great, but they show who is the best at PvP, not necessarily who is the best at playing their class.

Mage: How fast can you CotH 20 players to Trakanon.
Wiz: How long can you AFK in group before someone says something.

Oh god that would be painful...

I'd much prefer a race from Freeport to Qeynos. Or a race from FV to VP, having to go through Cabilis.

Shaman: keep a full complement of buffs on a full group without ever having one drop. If you let one of your buffs fade, you're out of the competition.

Mage = How long can we sit on our ass while our pet does the work without said ass getting sore. Last person still sitting wins. If tie (after a certain time limit of sitting) , first person to coth a lazyass player from 5 feet away.

but do they truly determine who is the best?

No, of course they don't.

They don't even necessarily determine who is the best 1v1 PvP against the same class in a limited area with limitations on items usable for the encounter, and that's a pretty heavily qualified "best."

Xanthias is already proven the best ranger by the double DT in the sig.
