View Full Version : Tetris in AL?

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?

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.

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 :-)

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.

......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.

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

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.

We could have a tower defense map while we're at it, and all sorts of puzzle maps. I want a Flappy Bird zone!

Plant vs Zombie ?

Next time ppl have an idea about make a game with blood, rage, and glacial gem into a game like Candy Crush
Or throwing copper, silver, and golden chest like Angry Bird

This has been suggested enough times before (even by me).

Horde mode would be fun, especially with no pots for the added challenge.

Maybe put a boss on the end of each wave so rogues are needed?

Isnt this pretty much what I suggested yesterday about a mob pve area, just in more detail lol. Yes sounds like a good idea.

No. More mage always better for large group of mob.

Possibly, maybe Mages will finally be in demand then. Because during the event everyone just wants a tank and all rogues.

Why do you complain? Is there any chance for a tank to make it up in arena LBs? Did we complained? So please don't spoil the idea if it doesn't suits you.

Energizeric,

Im just saying there needs to be a component like the one Gess suggested to make all classes needed.

How about, you can only enter with 1 of each class, 3 man teams.

I wouldn't be opposed to that.

Or wait. You have a group of 4. For example : you are 1 and your group is with 2,3 and 4. Ok so let's say you are a Mage, 1 is paired with a warrior and a rogue. (Warrior: A Rogue: B) 1,A and B are a team, you kind of work together but you also want to survive the longest. So that makes it more interesting. Let's say you survived the longest out of the 3, 1 wins. The points you win are the number of mobs you all killed together x 3 (1st is x3 | 2nd x2 | 3rd x1) So you as a group would want to kill as many mobs as possible but you would also want to survive the longest. This would be so fun.

Or the points will be counted like this. Every mob is worth 1 point, you will get all the points from the mob your team kills until you die. Or the first idea on the point system. I think the first one is more fun cause your kind of working against your teammates. Don't forget that you are paired with 2,3 and 4 so your points will be counted toward that team so.. The first post or the second

Never say "NO" to these fine additions to the game. Although I feel Arcane reward is not necessary.

Note: This idea was already suggested once in PL forums
