Flight Rising Discussion

[center][img]http://i.imgur.com/6h2zbIp.png[/img][/center] [right][size=5][color=#ff5a00][b]Welcome![/b][/color][/size][/right] ----- ----- Come one, come all to the 2nd Annual Blacksand Battledome: where combat and camaraderie go hand in hand! The Battledome is an age-old and widely enjoyed pastime in Fire Flight's history, built around a massive arena where only the land's strongest competitors would go to break in their armor, reaffirm the bonds they share with their dear clanmates, and prove themselves as strong fighters ready to serve the Flamecaller. This year's Flameforger's Festival has heralded the reopening of Blacksand Battledome to clans of all flights as a grand gesture of friendship and there is a wealth of treasures to entice them to compete in our games. Register your teams at the entrance, and start tracking your battles now! [right][size=5][color=#ff5a00][b]Getting Started[/b][/color][/size][/right] ----- ----- [b]HELPERS & VOLUNTEERS:[/b] @AlpineHell The workings of the main event is actually very simple, and you can get started with just a few easy steps: [LIST=1] [*][b]Register[/b] your team: Record the names of your coliseum team on the Roster spreadsheet. [*][b]Fight[/b] your battles: Go head to head against other players for the week. [*][b]Record[/b] the outcomes: Tally up your total battles won and lost as you go. [/LIST] [right][size=5][color=#ff5a00][b]Scoring & Prizes[/b][/color][/size][/right] ----- ----- [b]MAIN EVENT: KING OF THE MOUNTAIN[/b] Your score in the PVP Battledome event depends on how high you rank on the Versus Leaderboard. The top registered player that makes a ranking on the coliseum leaderboard wins the main battling portion of the competition. [b]MINI-SAFARI: PARTY CRASHERS[/b] Your score in Party Crashers is centered around how many familiars you’ve bagged in single-player combat. You can track your collection on the Party Crashers FORM, where you can enter 5 familiars of any kind at a time by name, so long as you got them in the coliseum. You don't need to register a team for Party Crashers. [b]HOARDING EVENT: METTLE DETECTOR[/b] Your score depends on how much currency you have farmed from the coliseum during this festival. You may keep track on the [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_sEQDpjr-N8-Rv3tuuosNnEJeX2Ksixa5j_HWDBu9RI/edit?usp=sharing]mettle detectors spreadsheet[/url] to match up against other players! You don't need to register a team for Mettle Detector.

[center][img]http://i.imgur.com/8TmjF1T.png[/img][/center] [right][size=5][color=#ff5a00][b]About & How To[/b][/color][/size][/right] ----- ----- [size=3][b]Q: How do I battle for this event?[/b] A: Use the Rated match feature in the Coliseum! [img]http://i.imgur.com/u3leWeK.png[/img] [b]Q: How do I collect Familiars or Currency for this event?[/b] A: [i]For these two single player events, you do not need to register a coliseum team![/i] As you battle through single player mode in the Monster Battle portion of the coliseum, you will likely pick up Glowing Embers as well as Familiars. Record all familiars you collect in the [url=https://goo.gl/forms/gq5OBWLD5OABIb8c2]Party Crashers form[/url]. Record all Embers you pick up in the [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_sEQDpjr-N8-Rv3tuuosNnEJeX2Ksixa5j_HWDBu9RI/edit?usp=sharing]Mettle Detector Spreadsheet[/url]. [b]Q: How do I use the Roster?[/b] A: Enter your Username, ID Number, and the names of your 3 fighter dragons. Please do not change the dragons in your team after registering. You may not register multiple teams at this time! [b]Q: How can I find the dragons I've just been matched with?[/b] A: Have the roster spreadsheet open, use CTRL+F or CMD+F and type in the dragons' names one at a time. If you cannot find the full team anywhere on the roster, you are battling a [i]Rogue fighter[/i], which will do good things for your score! [b]Q: Help! The ranked battle function isnt working or is stuck on searching for an opponent![/b] A: This is likely to happen, don't panic! This could mean that little to no users are using Ranked Match at the time, so you might want to refresh and try again, or even return to the coliseum a little later. Hopefully this doesnt happen too often if enough users participate in this event.[/size]

The 1st place player in each category gets that event’s prize. Users may compete and win in more than one category for these prizes.

You're all so so wonderful!

PARTY CRASHERS GhostFromTheMoon - 105 Eiz

METTLE DETECTOR Kivovis Stormchesters

@AlpineHell If we want to level fodder in higher venues while doing Party Crashers, are we allowed to change up our teams?

@Pennifeather yeah, thats totally fine! Party crashers focuses on the familiars you collect, so no coli team needed to register for it :D Just plop them in the party crashers form as you go along to qualify!

@AlpineHell oh considering how much time i plan to spend in the coli, i'll definitely be taking part in the non-main events!

@AlpineHell For Mettle Detectors, are we not allowed to spend our embers until the end of the event for proof? The spreadsheet says we need to take a screenshot of out hoarded embers, at the very least.

@TigressRising thats a great question! Actually I overlooked the spending part. As long as the numbers are accurate on the spreadsheet it'll be no problem.
