I was looking at the sealed deck tournament topic, and I thought "What about having this as an arena in the game?"

Basically, in the Temple of Balthazar, (or a new location), you speak to an NPC who takes you to a new outpost that isn't on the map (e.g, like in the Dragon Festival when you spoke to the dragon arena person in Shing Jea).

In there, your skillbar becomes blank, and all the skills you have unlocked become locked (whilst you're in the town, not permanantley). You get 20 randomly unlocked skills, 10 for your primary profession, and 10 for your secondary profession, inlcluding an elite for each.

Once you've decided on your build, you can press Enter mission, and be assigned into a team for some PvP battles. Either that, or maybe the option to make teams like in team arenas.

What do you think?

hhhmm, i didnt think of it like that, joining the outpost and having the skills in your "sealed deck" (aka skill inventory), and ur skill bar just empty w8ing for our sealed play build to be born!

on a side note, the outpost should be like team arenas where u can either join by urself or with a limited amount of ppl, also for the sake of balance there should be some way to not allow players re-load the outpost until they have something good to play with (this also would apply with leavers) now the question is: since u will be allowed different skill from all professions, how would u determine ur main and secondary profession? would it be based on the proffesion ur atm or would u be able to change ur main/secondary profesion in this outpost?

A Sealed deck? Thats even more random than random arenas.

I love it.

Of course. It'll never work with loads of people being boring and just quitting if they don't get a good skillbar (Yes I think the skillbar could be random too. That would also be good).

thats why in order to prevent this, a way of not allowing the players re-enter the outpost immediately should be implemented, something like the dragon festival "sugar rush" enchantment , but instead of saying u move 25% faster, it could say something like "cant zone into pvp arenas for 5 mins" or something like that
