Random Tournament 2022!

[Vang]

Well, glad I have increased speed and stamina because it runs out quick wearing scale armor and chain boots!!!
Looking forward to a 2 os armor for stealth.

The double swinging scimitar wielding barb has killed the bear guarding the honey scroll to give to the dead man who has captured the elder.

I may take the scale armor off, I run out of stains in like, 12 seconds.

chug like 10-20 stamina potions. Provides 30seconds a chug of unlimited stamina that stacks. (Same goes for thawing and antidote)

When does this start and end? Last year I read the starting post and I was too confused to join.

This year is different, please roll me one Paladin with a sword.

When I die, do I have to use that same roll if I want to try again?

Thank god for those scepters otherwise I didn’t have a onehanded weapon to use double swing or frenzy… that would suck because that kinda felt like the way to go with this roll

The barb is on the way. Decided to build him in LoD1.14 because of more play time options also made him SC so I can reroll him if and when he dies and still use him

Either or when you die. I think it is encouraged to reuse what you are originally rolled, but the option to do otherwise is there.

Nah you don't re-use. Generally when you die you get a new roll. Some people play the old roll, but normally you get a brand new character.

 

[coju]

@Vang I notice we start with swords as 1 and crossbows as 12, but there are 13 weapon rolls with throwing weapons being were assassin katars are. If we are numbering them in order, are we calling throwing weapons 0 or 13? (Because, if 1 since they are at the brining of the list I get to use them!!)

No, when you die:

10. Replays are allowed, and no maximum tries. You may replay your last roll if you choose too.

Some characters are frankly unbeatable for 98% of us here on the SPF because the rolls are just terrible. That 2% could beat the game because their patience is an unmeasurable statistic.


@Arjan @coju @AntiRush @Oblivious @Jcakes @Miron @Irenicus @m4ke

We are making a small adjustment to weapons. The tournament is giving 5 weapons total, with the 2 chosen weapon types (different than first) I know knowing your roll may give you a slight advantage this early stage, but its all good. I would suggest for one of you that a throwing weapon or javelin might be in order


For mine, just roll it up random someone please.

Composite Bow

I'll take a random mace please.

 

[coju]

Throwing Weapon for my 5th, please.

I removed it just now from the Assassin weapon box and placed it in the actual 13 position now after xbows, so no more confusion.

@Jcakes 6, Warhammer
@Arjan, would be throwing as your option, lucky fate shined and you got 4, Balanced Axe
@coju, Not as lucky as Arjan, 1: Throwing Knife.

I would love to take part in this tourny! But it's too early yet for me to wrap my head around how to roll a character... A little help would be much appreciated!

If I can choose my class: I don't see any Sorcs rolled yet, so that would be my choice. And I would like to be able to equip staves; I get a choice of weapon, right?

Yep, staves and you get one more choice, though swords is the default. Your weapons would be then those +2 orbs and +3 random other weapons (could be more staves, swords, or orbs, but most likely none of those as it is a 1-14 roll to get your other weapons types).

OK, for the second choice I'll stick with the default of swords then

[Norcim]

Hey everyone, finally getting a chance to get back into some D2R after being away for a while. I've played in a number of tournaments over the years, but I've never tried my hand at a totally random one so this should be an adventure! Looking to best my performance from the March of the Doomed tourney, where I deeded in NM Act 3.

If someone would be so kind as to roll me up a char I'd appreciate it! We're putting our fate in the hands of the RNG, so random char, random weapons, random the whole enchilada.

 

[gregth]

Hello, this tournament looks fun !
I'd like to try it out, so if someone can roll me a char that would be great
As Norcim, let's make it full random

Active now. No end date currently. No table yet, as I am bad with formatting for the new forums.
