Preview - Honor Arena returns... now for Level 30 and up!

[Cinco]

Halloween 2018 is just around the corner. Gear is looking great and the event is bigger than ever. I hope to put out a detailed visual preview before next week!
As an appetizer, we'll do a small PVP personal leaderboard event this weekend... but with a few added twists:

The 'Honor Arena' has been expanded to include players Level 30 and up!
Rules for joining are the same as other PVP zones (level difference matters).
To make this happen I've built a new set of 'Honor' gear that can be worn by Level 30's.
These Level 30 Honor sets will be available to purchase for gold in the Store (*after our next update).
Just like their Level 100 cousins, this set is stripped down to the bare essentials for combat.
Wear all six pieces and you can enter the Honor Arena Portal in towne.
For the duration of the event, the Honor Arena will only be accessible from this portal.
The event is scheduled to begin at 1:30pm on Thursday and run 'til 1:30pm on Monday.
Score 10 points per kill in the arena. Collect 500 for Bronze, 1500 for Silver and 3000 points for Gold Tier.

[PRIZES]
When the event is over you can browse prizes via the event vendor (in Fort Blackstone).
This time 'round I've got a few cool Swamp-themed vanity weapons and a collection of Level 10 Amulets.
All items are available to all Victory Tiers! Prices are different (Bronze pays the highest price per item, Gold pays lowest price).

I'll also set re-spec to be free during the Event ;-)

Nice to see a little switch up!

[OverPricing]

This looks exciting :)!

Also finally having a actual Halloween event that isn’t just boring re-used map + some vanities to fill the year’s Halloween.

Hope seeing more like this, cheers to cinco! :)

So the +/-5 level restriction will apply to these zones? Level 30s may only get matched into a max of level 35 Honor arena zones?

Also, is there anyway to code it so that the Honor Arena can be hosted (and maybe locked?) but kills gained in the hostable version not count towards leaderboard? I know this is an odd thing to ask and probably not possible, but we had planned to get in our tournament match on Saturday and for the Honor tourney to wrap up sometime next week. Unfortunately, I think this event will push the tournament conclusion back a week.

Anyway, I understand if it's not possible. In any case, thank you for the event.

Your full of surprises, thank you for your hard work Cinco.

Can we get more of a detailed break of what are the event rewards reaching each tier?

Will there be discounts on enchantments?
What about gold farming maps - perhaps wait on this till next event if Halloween event will be rolled out after.

Ah, yes. A discount on enchantments would be great! We haven't had discounts in quite sometime.

I would hold off on the gold farming map rewards until the Halloween event though.

Yes. The level restriction will apply in these zones (+/- 5).

I'll add a 'practice' version of the Honor Arena that has the same rules but awards no points during the Event.

Score will be awarded for kills in the 'Arena of Honor' that you can only access from the towne portal.

Great stuff! Will you able to provide a break down or list of enchantments available for the level 10 amulets? Thanks for you hard work and consideration. :)

Lord Cinco, please give us more info about the rewards each tier,
If you're not doing so, many people would just hit bronze tier and quit.

Thanks for the event though.

Anyone know how long the vendor stays in town? I just came back to the game and I'm gold poor but I want to buy these things. Just wondering how long I have to make some cash.
