Thank you for all of the feedback! Here's an update on incoming changes:
- Ranger 'Evade' is getting a buff to armor and dodge.
- Paladin 'Redemption' combo damage is getting a 50% reduction.
- A unique Shield of Honor vanity item is being created as a reward for the inaugural Guild Arena Event.
- All of the Honor Set weapons are being visually converted to be one-hand plus off-hand combos. Combat performance is precisely the same as before. Your existing weapons will become a 'Set' that occupies both hands. I am doing this because of the aforementioned Shield of Honor vanity item: it makes no sense for me to offer a vanity reward item related to the Honor Set that is fundamentally incompatible.
- The Guild Arena Event reward structure is being designed to maximize inclusion (either by making the rewards much more readily available or by changing the score mechanics to be 'thresholds' instead of 'places.' More info will be available soon - we're working through the specifics currently).
Here's a question for you all:
Given that one (1) kill in the Arena of Honor will grant ten (10) points to your Guild over an Event Period of two (2) days (and there are no point multipliers), what should the goal threshold for GOLD TIER rewards be?
I've got some figures in-mind, but would love to hear your opinions on the matter :-)
This sounds very good nice ideas and i think it should be around 25k maybe a little less, because at 10 points a kill it really takes a while since the event will only be 2 days and not many guilds are that active anymore besides like 4 or 5 and im pretty sure this time everyone wants to stay in there own guild instead of merging into one. This event will go live this weekend i presume?

Will only the top 10 scorers count for the points?
The current plan is to give awards based on score thresholds. For instance, all the Guilds who reach 50,000 points will earn 'Gold Tier.' Guilds who amass 25,000 points earn 'Silver Tier,' etc., etc..
Each Tier grants access to one of three gold farming zones (like last time). All Tiers grant access to a vendor that sells one (1) unique Vanity Shield item (The Shield of Honor), and discounted Pure Stat weapons.
Great. A much needed buff. Keep in mind that these changes should mainly apply to higher level skills so that we don't disrupt twink levels as much.
I feel like this is too extreme of a nerf to rhinos and that you should start out smaller, especially with a tournament in progress (my team doesn't have a rhino on it, so I'm speaking from an unbiased view). This not only impacts the damage output of rhinos, but heal as well which we should keep in mind.

The fox 'Evasion' buffs will start at Rank 5 and go from there.
I'll start with a ~15% combo damage reduction for Rhino 'Redemption.'
Thank you for making the rewards of this guild event more inclusive to all guilds.
So that any guild with hardwork and team work has an equal opportunity to achieve the gold tier.
50k points is still a tough ask for smaller guilds. I am curious as to how many will count towards the points, 20 members perhaps?
Loving the rewards of gold farming maps and a vanity pvp honor sheild.
Cinco your wit regarding the recoloured mantles is hilarious.
