Rules
Consumables:
- You may stack arrows in the Blood Moor before starting a duel. Both of these promote l8z/defensive gameplay (should either be agree by both parties to allow or just removed and not allowed)
- You may stack mana potions before starting a duel.
Items:
- No item charges are allowed with the exception of Oak Sage and Heart of Wolverine (Demon limb is banned) Use of charges should not be allowed, it gives to big of an advantage to certain classes.
- Open wounds cap 50% this should also be added as was tested with bui
Not interested in any rules that are open ended and rely on the participants to make a decision due to the host being indecisive on it (oak/arrows/mana pool allowed if opponent agrees). Going to set the rules which everyone has to abide by.
Mana pool prohibition has been tested before and leads to even more l8z gameplay with people giving the "Mana deprivation treatment".
I am open to changes on the use of oak sage. It used to be up to the players to decide but most people seemed to enjoy using it so I made acceptable by all.
Open wounds - you will need to elaborate. Never heard of this being a problem. It's a chance on cast so not like you are making open wounds more effective by being >50%.

Couple of questions:
Should Demon Limb be allowed?
Should we consider increasing slow from 10% to 25% to allow for more build/gear variation? Right now kicker assassin cannot use main weapon because of cap on slow %.
1 hard point into Poison Nova (or obtained from an item should be allowed. This would be the ONLY chance a PNB necro has a chance vs a 95% ES sorc.
Lower Resistance Should be allowed. We have shared stash, everyone can afford to get 20/11s now.
Should bone wall be allowed so long as it is not abused?
CTC Life Tap should be banned in teams. (i.e. Camping Amazon team using Dracs vs druid)
I disagree. Ya little Chicken :)
Seen rule sets go both ways on demon limb. I got it banned because honestly barbs and sins probably don't need the buff as they are already the strongest 1v1 classes.
Are you talking about fleshripper? I would be absolutely fine adding a rule that this weapon is allowed. If a kicker wins a tournament using it, they deserve it.
Poison nova banned because of the l8z playstyle which it enables of just spam and run. Interested in hearing others opinions on allowing +1 point in poison nova - this always seemed like a gimmick to me.
Lower resist banned because it doesn't promote better game play, just a gimmick to see if your opponents expected you to go 110% pride or not. Also trap+nec gunna be an unstoppable force and doesn't need this buff.
Bone wall - too hard to enforce, just use bone prison
CtC life tap another rule that has gone back and forth. 1 piece seems allowed by most, but interested in hearing others opinions on it
