Default Weekend Event - Oldschool tombs

Simple. Turn back the clock for one weekend, remove all the nerfs you've made - prophecies only skills.

I wanna see airspike back in halls, spirit-spamming, the rifts, The 6 team burial mounds matches (not as much as the other things , but still cool)! Even swap Heroes' Ascent to Tombs, you could consider it a "prophecies" preview to all those with factions only.

This will probably get locked but I think it'd be cool because they were my favourite PvP days.

I miss tombs. And IWAY, and Ele spike, and Minion Factory... As much as I miss them, they're not coming back. :'(

I just want it to go back to tombs really.

Care to explain what the latter is at the end of all your posts? My understanding of latter was the second of two choices.

Developing...

1. "Old School" tombs is gone for ever. Hundreds of dollars were spent in developers to balance things and make it better. I also really doubt they have a "record" of that version of the game with all the attributes and skills how they were.

2. "Latter" is an idiomatic expression, sorry if you don't understand it. Try reading the whole dictionary reference, OR if you got one that doesn’t mention this, consider getting a new one.

3. This is not a rant whatsoever so I am sorry if you get offended by my post, I was merely trying to "extend" myself like you asked me to, hope things are clearer now.

Latter.

LOL I like the idea, but why not unerf protective bond, remove the nightmares from UW and add back the refund points and unconditional damage weapons too? Now that would be truly oldschool




/endsarcasm

If you want easy fame with gimmick builds go iway/vimway it

I don't want easy fame - I just think it'd be fun. Tbh I took a 4 month break roughly around a month after the dawn of IWAY and Rspike. I did 3 or so groups of Spirit spam.

These are just some fun things to look back on.

But I saw these flames coming from a mile away, flame on.

Yeah...because everyone wants to wait 4 hours to download an update that rolls back the skills, then another 4 when they fix them again >.<

No thanks, for that reason.

As much fun as it would be to go back and give all those old builds a shot again, I dont think its worth it. Besides the builds I have now work a charm.

This idea is just a way for you to go back to the days, where you exploited all the over powered skills like you used to.

If you played since the begining you would know that the spirit spam denial will own hall for sure, there is no iway and air spike.
