Tetris in AL?

[Energizeric]

We have all played the addicting game Tetris..... When the game first starts, the blocks are coming down very slow. Then as you move up levels, they come faster and faster, until eventually you can't handle the speed and it all piles up to the top and the game ends.

Imagine a tombs dungeon with this same concept...

Low level mobs begin to come at you slowly, then as you progress the mobs gradually become tougher, larger, and faster. This continues until the mobs eventually get too tough and your entire party dies. There is no respawning here, once a player dies he is eliminated, but can watch just as in the Shuyal Gladiator Arena. When the last member of your party dies, your time is recorded. The top 25 parties that lasted the longest will have their names and time recorded on the leaderboard.

All members of the top 25 times will receive a banner at the end of the season. And all members of the top 10 times will receive an arcane prize of some sort. If you were a member of more than one party on the leaderboard, you do not get multiple banners or prizes, only 1.

They could even add in an achievement or two here, that you must last a certain amount of time, or kill a certain number of mobs.

Any thoughts?

nice imagination my friend

Wow! Great idea! Like the number of waves someone Survives I like it!

[Serancha]

Haha so awesome. Count me in!

One problem though: won't all tanks win?

I doubt it, as they don't kill fast enough, so the mobs would pile up too fast on them. I think the best party would be a mixed one. Yes you need a good tank to draw aggro and protect everyone with HOR, but you also need mages to stun the mobs and rogues to kill them.

True

Sts really needs to see this, this could be fun!

1. Yes number-of-waves or mobs-killed is better, or you risk it will become a pet stun festival.
2. I am hoping for an interesting map. We haven't seen one since Hauntlet - WT, KT, KM, Arena offer little to no space for any hint of strategy.
As in some pillars, dead ends of several shapes, corridor loops etc.

And the mobs could drop potions :-)

[ClumsyCactus]

No pot Map? THAT would be interesting...
And actually require teamwork.

Fun idea like zombie hordes coming at you non-stop.

Cool idea with the mobs dropping potions and elixirs, randomly.

[Waheedski]

......And if you make it to a set time, a boss appears that has Helena's health, and a chance to drop a unique weapon or bane item that can be used on all maps.

Could this be the Lower Hauntlet? :sly:

Time to play L2D2 guys ....










Lol JK :P

I loved the idea, but isnt this idea in some other sense was brought up but was not good due to some reason like pve kills (farmers of it) idk , but if not +1 I want it too

[Matutd]

But kiting a mob on lvl 1 for 4 hours would place you at the top of the leaderboard

Ive got an idea like this posted somewhere. And rogues wouldnt be able to participate. It would be 2 tanks and 2 mages forever

Nah, a rogue with a good pve build would be great for this. I think a good mixed party would be best.
