Warband duel for (char) life and death

[Leshma]

In that case, nothing special.

If I was the one forced to duel, I would duel, lose to the better player and you would lose very active member of this community.

I guess it would be the same for other sane people which are high level like me.

It's not really a question if you want or would participate in the feature - there are no plans for this.

I'm just thinking about how the duel would actually go. Not if people would like or not like the feature

[Teeth]

Phew

But yes, endless blocking match.

[Tears of Destiny]

You would see a ten minute match with careful strikes, rare be any tricks.

[Moncho]

And you could probably see the one whose hand slipped off the mouse in the last second making him miss the block punch his computer in rage until he/she/it broke the poor thingy.

[Rebelyell]

if 2 peps are same skill lvl
person wich don't know about result of the duel should win(if hes fighting seriously)

[Polobow]

I would take a glaive and use my range as a full defensive style. High stakes, less risks.

Ofcourse, you will always have thrill-seekers. Other people may call them reckless, stupid, or dumb. Depends how you look at it.

[SoA_Sir_ODHarry]

i would get slip knockout before the duel even had started

People would also try to abuse builds, weapon mechanics and animations as much as possible.

meh nothing new

[Vodner]

It would likely be the dullest duel you ever saw. Neither side would want to fully commit to taking risks.

[B3RS3RK]

I would run for 5 minutes, making my opponent rage, and then engage him in relentless and aggressive combat, surprising him somewhat while his mind is clouded with anger.

[obitus]

what happens when someone loses internet connection during the duel?

they lose all their shit i guess, or no one will ever win due to unplugging internet cable / quitting

[Loar Avel]

A philosophical question!

If you would duel someone else, say, of the same skill level (both player and character) - with the noteable difference that the one who dies is rewarded with permadeath (all generations, all heirlooms, all XP gone) - would the fight be different? How? Would the players make more mistakes due to being nervous?

Discuss!

Will change my build for something much less original with much more life, take no risk, play defensively.

[Materia]

They might use their brain.

So far most of the duels consist of one person spamming with attack, and the other one blocking, or both of them behave like some circus monkeys, doing all these weird things and running around trying to smell each others ass.
