Going to decline on my previous proposition, it defers from your ideal competition, so in relation towards Highest EE or Stat item found.

Using the Bufcore scenario, everyone starts off equally with base gear, and can record their findings during their climbs by posting them, please note that some very nice EE items have been found during Bufcore. Also, you can ascertain the value of the item(s) and prize appropriately by Tier and % EE or Stat. Since people are starting from scratch, drops aren't manipulated by Magic Luck gear already been bought or found previously.

You may also separate Bufcore with Group climb prizes is you want. It has been already noted that one can identify a new drop versus a previous drop by way of the item(s) ID# by viewing the source code, this means the items will have to on character(s) and not put into a Vault.

What stops someone from saving up/buying a bunch of whites and welling them on their main with ml, or rolling essences after the event starts and claiming they found it on their buffcore?

Simple... Bufcore characters at level one start off with white items (based on their class and what is available, all Tier I) ... they don't have magic luck, they have to post the items they find, and because of different timeframes, you can view their character and catch them in the act of using Previous found gear like magic luck items &/or White items because you use the View Source code and find the ID# to be shorter than during the events or before starting the event(competition).

Hence the reason that they have to have ALL items found and used on characters and NOT in Vault.

Yes, it takes time, but one(1) hour before the competition even starts, you can identify the latest ID# before competition, and if the items used have a LOWER number(#) in ID, then that was found previous to the competition.

EDIT: oh, by the way, a new character starting as a Guardian ONLY starts with a Tier I White Club and Tier I Regular Heal... as long as they start with that crap, the ID# doesn't count, but a Guardian, does NOT start with any armor. Thus bufcore for self found gear etc.

Explain please how do you tell if an item was found on the buf character or a different character after the event starts

I have a few solutions to some of this.
As i said one way is simply to have a screen recorder active for any people attempting it. I would only really need to check footage of winners. however i dont think too many people would want to do this, despite the screen recording software being free and easy to use.


Saying this as far as current voting goes, there is only 2 votes for buffcore. There is also a big problem of welling items not found on the buffcore character. As the item ID will be replaced. So i would be unable to prove that any magical+ item was not gotten by lobbing something into the well. only 2 solutions and that is for screen recording or to allow welling of gear, this completely loses most of the buffcore aspect as people would have full t3 gear as soon as they found a well.
I'd need a lot more votes of people to say this is something they want to do, as it is i suspect the majority would vote to not see this tbh :rofl:


I have an "idea" of what i'd like to do. I'm currently more inclined to do a "best drop" than to do "buffcore" and i'm not going to state what my intentions are yet. But i believe i can make it fun and keep "cheating" to a minimum and if cheating does happen for me to have better chances in locating the cheaters.
