    Dark Souls Barebones Fight Club

    CURRENTLY NO SET DATE OR TIME.

    The Purpose

    To have a fun yet competetive fight club that will test who can use equipment better, not who can upgrade it the best. It's meant to have longer, more exciting and cinematic fights than the 3-hit fights we're accomodated to. The area and rules are not yet set in stone, so feel free to input your thoughts.

    Soul Level: 20-40

    Here is what I think will work best

    #1

    Allowed/Disallowed Equipment

    I don't like this topic either, but for the sake of the fun, it must be done.
    No damage-increasing equipment or spells
    This is simply to keep the fights fun, long, and challenging. This includes:
    -Hornet/Leo Ring
    -Red Tearstone Ring
    -Crown of Dusk/Dark Sun
    -Power Within
    -Bellowing Dragon Crest Ring
    -Ring of the Sun's Firstborn

    #2
    Keeping "cheap" things to a minimum
    Again, something I dislike in FC's. However, to keep to the spirit of the fight club, it has to be done.This includes things like (feel free to defend why these should be allowed):
    -Backstab Phishing/Roll Backstabbing (EXCESSIVELY)
    -Magic Spam, please try to keep between 1-3 casts every 10 seconds.
    -Pyromancy, I think it's fair that it should only be Laurentius/Eingyi spells, and no more than a +5 non-ascended glove.

    #3
    Miscellaneous rules and such
    These are just some things I would highly reccomend are done for the sake of the idea of the fight club. Here are some of the things:
    -Do not "tryhard", this is for fun, not for fame
    -No "salt", it only ruins the fun for everyone
    -Please, please...PLEASE, no twinkling, demon titanite weapons. No dragon weapons. No upgrading weapons. The point is to have long, dramatic fights
    -I HIGHLY encourage anything that increases health, besides modding
    -Look your best, what, you go out of the house naked?
    -MAX upgrade your armor, this will make fights much longer

    There isn't really much left to say. If you want to sign up, PM me or post in the thread. The date and time are uncertain since I am banned until the end of August in XBL. I can host for Xbox 360, but if this gets big enough, I may need some help. If you're on PC or PSN, you can sign up, but until someone volunteers, there are no hosts as of yet. Please also include your gamertag, PSN, or GFWL. Thanks to anyone who signs up to host or participate!

    Why not merge it with Wilks' SL 125? Both seem similar enough to me at the first glance.

    His is meant for fun, but his ideals and mine don't mesh with the focus I'd prefer. I'd like to keep it at less than SL 30. Also, I'd like to maybe have this being an ongoing thing as long as people are interested.

    What weapons exactly? As long as there is a general consensus I would assume it's ok. By the way, I can't remember your gamertag to a tee. I know it's Aim Here, but I don't know all filler letters.

    nevermind....I was thinking higher sl

    If you're intending to keep the soul level low and have unupgraded or minimally upgraded weapons then I really don't have an issue.

    and my GT is in my sig

    This looks interesting enough, I always like things that aren't based around flipping and magic spamming to win and get 5 second fame.

    Can you be more specific on the weapons? i.e. max upgrades, upgrade paths, disallowed weapons, etc.

    No upgrading whatsoever. Unless a consensus from the contestants says otherwise. Also, no weapons that use twinkling or demon titanite. Everything else is fine.

    Then I'd keep this SL lower than 40 for sure.

    Not really enough lee-way. Plus everyone would just pick warrior and bandit.

    I don't like starting class duels. I want to put more thought into my build than that. But, low level PvPing is great. I've done it at 6 and 10. 20-30 might be interesting too.

    Alright I'll sign you up Beanpole.

    And Reim, do you want to join the league of PSN champions we currently have signed up? I know you're on PSN, not sure about Xbox though.

    I really like this Idea !
    Just a question though, if i want to use my Bonewheel Shields can i upgrade them ?
    I don't know the exact Numbers but i think the Damage is really low .
    I gotta test it first i suppose.

    Sign me up .

    I'd say sure, but no more than +5 and no elemental paths. You guys are the ones fighting so you can veto any rules or restrictions.

    We'll see .
    I can always switch to a +5/4/3 Shield when the Damage really is too low .

    Ok then. That's fine. Also, first soul level to 5 votes is the set SL, then I'll switch the poll to the area.

    If you make it something like Normal +5 or RAW upgrade path only this gets rid of the Dragon/Twinkling/Demon weapons (your first post is a little less-than-clear on this).

    I will be there for PC, should my internet finally decide to start working. I probably won't be able to host though.
