Arena isn't a place for the weak. Here you fight against other players and if you stand victorious, you acquire precious experience.

The arena Arena.png is a place to measure a players fighting abilities in competetive combat with other players and is only available to players level 5 and above. The arena is open in the times of day Times-morning.png morning, Times-day.png day and Times-evening.png evening. In contrary to other activities, entering the arena does not cost Stamina.png stamina, but is limited to 5 fights per day (real world 24hours). The arena resets every day at UTC 0815.

Arena course of action

The arena can be accessed by clicking on the Quest button and then Arena.png Arena. An overview about the current state of the players ranking and the daily fight limits is presented:

Arena.png Welcome to Arena!
Dirty air is soaked with the thick smell of blood. No one ends up here by an accident: you can't leave once you begin your battle. I hope, your sword is sharp and your shield is steady.
Your rank: 1337 Your fights: 3/5
Combat Ranking: /top5 Fastest-growing: /top6
Entrance fee: 5 Gold.png

The player then has to choose one of the two options to fight:

  1. MagGlass.png Fight!
  2. Play.png Fast fight

When chosing one of these options, the 5 Gold.png entrance fee are payed directly. The game bot tries to find an opponent in a reasonable time. If no opponent can be found, the fee will not be payed back! But as soon, as an opponent is found, the fight begins.

Both fighters start with 100 Heart.png life points. The fight is run in rounds. Each round, one of three areas is attacked, one is defended. These three are: head, chest and legs. If one of the rivals hits a defended area, the attack is blocked and 0 damage is dealt, while hitting an undefended area deals damage. The hits take place at the same time, there is no order in which the hits are dealt. If one or both players get to 0 or less Heart.png life points, the fight is over. Since both rivals hit simultaneous, it is possible that both players have below 0 Heart.png at the same round. The winner is the player, that has more health at that point.

MagGlass.png Fight! - the manual way

The first option to fight, marked with MagGlass.png Fight! is the execution of the fight by hand. The player has 30 seconds to choose an attack and defense area each round, after that, the damage dealt in the round is calculated and the next round with a new decision for fighting areas starts. If the player does not decide on these areas in time, the game choses random areas for attack and defense. If you miss three rounds you lose the fight.

Play.png Fast fight - the automatic way

The second option results in no other fight than the manual choice, besides the fact, that all attacking and defending areas are chosen randomly by the game bot each round. The fights are faster when chosing this method.

Rewards

Winning fights in the arena gives a considerable amount of Experience.png experience. Currently, there is no gold or item reward tied to the arena. Losing a fight gives 1 Experience.png. Certain skills of some classes may yield in higher experience gain in the arena, both for won and lost fights.
