Default Random Arenas are a joke :)

I decided to get some faction, so I went into RA.

And with this team, we didn't go 10 in a row...

WE FLAWLESSED TEN IN A ROW.

We shoulda got like Extra Glad Points for that...

This is the SS after tenth win:


RA is a joke man..

Our Team:
BoonProt (the other mo)
BlindBot (the ele)
Rit Lord Spammer (The Rt)
And Me (I cant tell you my Leetsauce build, as it PWNS RA )


EDIT IN: Why Not more? WE coulda stayed all night in TA noone could even THINK about touching us....But in the First TA match, the Rit Lord Spammer had to go GvG.

Nice, I agree that RA is a joke. Any team with a half-decent monk does well.

you have 2/3 of the 3 guaranteed sources of a glad point in ra (spirit spammer and dual monks)
theyre not meant to be a joke, theyre called "random" arenas for a reason

Monk with Ranger as second proffession and Ele without second proffession. Yeah, RA is a joke.

Ele doesn't NEED a second profession...as all its energy management and spells are self-contained.

People just put secondaries on them to stick a heal party in, which is a useless skill in RA.

I woulda been more scared that it was a noob if they HAD a secondary...


And Don't dis /r on Monk...Especially when you can't see the build. No other secondary woulda worked. People need to unglue themselves from the thought that monks suck unless they take /me energy management...(or /n for OoB like my other monk there)

Haha grats??
You claim the other people are noobs and while you might have had more skill as a team over them, you being proud of this shows your quite new to the game.
Before the 10 win=TA update I used to have a lot of fun in CA.(competitive arenas thats what it was called before that horrid update) People were often easily able to go for 25 wins+
Me i had fun just watchin that fish in the outpost

It's quick, it's easy, it's relatively self-sufficient, and it's an appealing build to new players who have to choose a pre-made build because they have nothing unlocked yet.

Like me, on my new account...

You have alot of defense and healing in your team, and you think flawlessing is nice for your team? A shame there isnt anything lower than RA for lvl 20's..

So one dedicated healer, two support, leaving you as main damage dealer (so you'd better have been an axe warrior or an assassin), and you will have been playing defensively. No wonder you got ten wins.
You lucked out (or sync-entered) and got a decent build, now go back and randomly enter and see what your opposition had - most of them wont have had any healing at all, and completely unbalanced teams.

That said... yeah, RA is a joke. 4 players is much too few for random pairing, it should be 8 vs 8 so that the luck of the draw didn't determine the matches (as much).

Yeah, newb-griefing with twinked-out characters was very popular in the low-level arenas.
(For all I know it still is - I wouldn't enter the low-level arenas again if I got paid. It's bad enough in RA.)

I ran into multiple people in Ascalon Arena with 15k armor.
