We used to do this when HC LS was introduced for fun once a month, it was a fun event as everybody raced to level 20 and bets were made on different slashers. Would anyone be up for this again down the road sometime?

1-20 is so easy in this game right now...wouldn't even be that fun.

The game has changed too much for this to even be viable.

The last and best competition for HC was when you had to do 20 MQ climbs and get Sets of items or the best items from level 1-55 as well as forum gold as prizes for the top 5 winners. Now, that was the best competition ever and it was held before Whistling was introduced... just think about it, get players that have gear already from 1-20 doing whistling will just be a joke.

EDIT: voted "Nah", no need for me to post a Hell No as it is a simple idea that has no thought behind it.

I thought about trying HC but, without the gear im at a clear disadvantage in a contest like that. Id like to see something that everyone could compete in :-) wink wink ;-)

it would be cool if we could do some pvp with wager in gear or forum gold

lets clarify, is this buffcore style?
i.e using only self found gear?

I'm unsure how you'd prevent people from using a vault other than trust. Which "should" be fine, but if there's a reward, it's likely someones gonna cheat.

Contests are fun but we need to change it around, this one has played its part. Lets all think of something better...

thats what this contest is. All gear you find using nothing you owned before

we have done a few of these and nobody ever cheats. HC player base is pretty small and nobody really needs the 50fg that badly

I'm down for brainstorming, I agree the honor system might be exploited. Maybe have it so there's only 3-5 slashers or something so everyone can check their characters as they climb or something.

there's still no proof that a 30ee item "didnt" drop at level 1, The only proof system would be streaming.
