Ok, I'd like to let anyone (Warriors) interested in joining 1v1 pvp ladders in attempt to make some cash, and compete for the best stats that there is such a place. There are currently three ladders: 1k entry, 5k, and 10k, with grand prizes from 10k, to 25k, to a min of 40k (unsure on official prize of 10k ladder sorry). But if interested please visit the following website!

One of my favorite times is the rare instance when a RA match starts and most or all of the people are melee. If there is a caster, usually they are floored in seconds. No one brings proper skills to counter this, so it's brute force which wins. One TA match I remember, it was a 4v4 of all warrior, of all types of melee weapons. Never seen a better Earth Shaker + Aftershock since!

This would be a cool idea, except, everyone would be so defensive in their skills, it wouldn't really be a test of skill, but timing on getting your riposte to hurt.

Further more on the 1v1 idea, Necros and Mesmers aside, it's basically fair, knowing your opponent or not.

We used to play 2vs2 warrior duels in my old alliance, with no defensive stances/ripostes. It was pretty fun, people started abusing their secondary to gain an edge.

FrogDevourer · Oct 03, 2006, 02:36 PM // 14:36

Theoretical question (I don't like duelling): Wagers = I want to win at all costs = I'll put my fair play in a closet = I'll shamelessly use the most degenerated strategies to win (including griefing). Is that ok?

PS: The link doesn't work for me.

55 warrior ftw?!

Latter.

1v1 Warrior fighting involves about as much player skill as using mending

there are 3 things that can tottaly shut down a warrior, Hex's, Enchantments, and Conditions (Reckless Haste, Take your pick of enchantment, Blind)

So you need to fix some hex counters, Some Enchant Rips, and Some condition Removal

But an evade stance will also screw you over, so we need a Stance remover, lets choose wild blow

We'll Need some healing as well

but hang on a moment, you cant remove hex's AND remove Conditions, AND remove Enchants with one single class

in other words you can only build to counter a few of DPS/Conditions/Tank/Hex/Enchant/Stancer

what im getting at, 1v1 Warrior is just plain stupid

Alleji · Oct 03, 2006, 03:48 PM // 15:48

2 warriors set up for 1v1 obviously won't kill each other.

I think you're just trying to scam some gold out of poor whammos :P

XvArchonvX · Oct 03, 2006, 05:17 PM // 17:17

Somehow I think that this would just end up in a bunch of warriors relying on their secondaries and have a bunch of anti melee casting warriors or warriors running with Illusionary Weaponry, lol. Better yet you could have a W/R using Apply Poison, shooting one shot to poison then running around in circles with running skills.

Zakarr · Oct 03, 2006, 05:23 PM // 17:23

Guild Wars is not meant for 1 vs 1 so victory is pretty much based on luck which one has better counter skills.

lightblade · Oct 03, 2006, 05:31 PM // 17:31

You should make it like...1v1 for all profession and not just warriors, then I'll join

Why are you bashing his idea, if you don't agree, DON'T JOIN, we don't need insults from the peanut gallery.

Yanman.be · Oct 03, 2006, 06:38 PM // 18:38

How about if we don't agree we post as much.

You know, this being a forum and all.

You aren't allowed to host games that require an entrance fee. Just an FYI.

there is a reason this thread was closed pretty damn fast in the gladiators arena.

tomcruisejr · Oct 03, 2006, 10:09 PM // 22:09

If you want a fair 1 vs 1 warrior match, make it a sealed deck or make the skill bar identical otherwise paladin wins all.

and your webpage doesnt work.

Riposte fights FTW?

One Warrior brings /me with Soothing Images, Wins the tournament. BAM.
