Morathi Aisha Thrower/MB Asn Rogue Encampment 1Billy the Barbarian cried triumphantly as his axe ground through the bone and sinew in Lister's neck. Lister's corpse seemed to linger in the air for an instant, as if it would will itself to attack one last time, but then it collapsed onto the blood-slick stones beneath his feet. Baal's laughter echoed in Billy's ears. He looked up, but Baal had vanished. Now it was time. Time to put an end to his quest, to put an end to this evil. He had done this in two other dimensions. He sat for a moment, gathering his breath and his wits, then plunged into the portal.
The Worldstone Chamber materialized around him, but before he could move, tentacles sprouted from the ground. Suddenly, he felt as he were being skinned alive. The chamber vanished, replaced by pain. He heard someone scream, and all he could wish for was for the pain to stop. It did. "I came so close" he thought, as his soul suddenly and gently left his body.

I have decided to create a tournament that might be the most difficult in the history of the SPF. (Although it certainly has some strong competition. The Naked and All Alone tournaments come to mind.) This is a revamped version of the No Vitality Tournament, but with extra restrictions on Rubies, resists, mercenaries, and more. I hope you enjoy it, and I really hope that your quest doesn't end like poor Billy's did!:crazyeyes:
Survival Restrictions
- No stat points may be assigned into vitality.
- Rubies may not be added to helms or armors.
- Magical and rare items may have up to 30 life, but no more.
Note: 31 life is the "of the Mammoth" suffix. It's okay to add jewels with life and have more than 30, but 31+ cannot be on the item initially. Uniques, sets, crafts, and runewords are not restricted.
- Only one charm of each size may have life on it. There are no other charm restrictions, but only three of them (one small, one large, one grand) can have life.
- Your resistances may not go above 50 in any difficulty.
Note: This means base resists. You may not add resists to compensate for Convinction or Lower Resist, but you may go above 50 with Shrines, and you may also use resist potions. - Mercanaries have the same item restrictions, and cannot have more than 50 resist all on their gear.
Mercenaries
- You can use either a mercenary or summons, not both.
- Ravens, all Spirits, all Vines, and Decoys are exceptions to this rule. You may use a mercenary with those skills.
- If you are a mercenary player, you must never use a summon.
- Mercenaries may not have any Magic Find in normal but may have up to 35% in Nightmare and 50% in Hell.
- If you are a summon user, things are a little more complicated. You may use a merc until you get your planned summon, at which point you must strip your merc of its gear and kill it. You must do this when your summon first becomes available. For example, let's say you are a Valkzon. You kill a flayer and get level 30. Now it's time to put your first point in Valkyrie, strip the gear off your merc, get him killed, and then summon your Valkyrie. If you are a Druid planning on using Bears, you have the choice of getting a merc early but never summoning a wolf, or summoning wolves and never using your merc. Once you get level 30, it's time to kill your merc and make your bear.
The "Standard" Rules
Gameplay
- You may not rerun areas. When you start a new session, run through the cleared area killing as few monsters as possible. Items found in re-cleared areas may not be used on your character.
- You may skip an area and return to it later if you wish. Keep track of this if you do it.
- You may revisit previous acts to shop and use quest rewards.
- Any players setting is allowed, just no /p1 kill /p8 open chests cheese.
- You cannot Save and Exit to avoid death.
Muling
- The characters must be untwinked.
- You may mule items off your characters.
- Atma/Gomule may be used as an extended stash.
Versions & Mods
- You may use any version you like, but let everyone know if you are using something other than 1.12 Expansion.
- Red Rune Mod, Runeword Mod, and other Item Color mods are all allowed. No others are allowed.
Schedule
- The tournament starts now. You can start playing any time you like!
- You may re-enter as many times as you like.
- When you update your character, please end it with a one-line summary with the character name, build, level, and location. I will update the table once every 40 posts or so with this information. I will also keep a current table at the bottom of this post. (Hooray that they added an edit feature!)
- The tournament ends after there have been no posts in the thread for three months (i.e. people have lost interest).
Winning & Losing
- This tournament is HC. You may play SC if you wish, but your character is out of the tournament after your first death.
- Location determines advancement, followed by experience earned.
- You may skip sidequests if you wish. Killing Baal is the official goal.
- The winner is the person who progresses farthest with the highest amount of experience.
- Winners receive bragging rights. Sorry, no items (I have none ).
If you have any questions at all, please ask!
Well, I hope that covers it. In that case....
Good luck everyone!
