restrictions
========
-charged items. if you have gloves that are like +3 bow skills, 20 ias +str +dex +leech, and has teleport charges, you are allowed to use the gloves GIVEN you do NOT use the charges. this goes for all sorts of charges, just using teleport as an example, and for all types of items, be it amulets rings etc.

-No Two of any same char class to a team. Must be 3 Diff Chars
I know many of you will be wanting to use your 160/60's or 120/45 helms etc.
This is how this type of item is restricted.
Out of the following 4 modifiers: % ias, % enhanced damage, +max damage, +min damage, you are allowed to have the maximum value for 1 of these modifiers, then 3/4 for the next modifier, then 1/4 for the last.
So if you were to choose to have max ias, you could, but you would be limited to 3/4 in one of the next modifiers (most people will choose %ed) then 1/4th of the last.
The maximum modifiers for % ias, % enhanced damage, +max damage, and +min
damage are
Armors:
160 ed
60 ias
60 max damage
40 min damage
3/4 of each of these is:

45 max damage
30 min damage
3/4 of each of these is:

30 ias
30 max damage
20 min damage
1/4 of each of these is:
40 ed
15 ias
15 max damage
10 min damage
Its upto you to choose how you will setup your armor's/ helms.
Other things:
=========
-When you enter the game, choose an area to be your designated "starting area" for you and your team. Please do NOT make this directly outside of the Rogue Encampment exit/entrance as people pass by there quite often and it will help diminish the amount of confusion.
-If you have a Barbarian on your team, he may use any Warcries before the duel begins, and you will be allowed to run back to town to heal. Once you have done this, you must remain in the Blood Moor at ALL times until you die, from then on which you will wait until either all of your teammates are eliminated, or your opponents teammates are. I will NOT tolerate people running into the Blood Moor naked just to get their body, wait until the round is over.
-The rounds are best 3 out of 5. The person with 3 wins first is the winner. Finals will be 4/7
-Hirelings are not allowed.
-The use of shrines / wells is prohibited.
-Going into the den of evil / Cave is prohibited. As well as leaving the immediate blood moor. As in crossing bridges.
-Healing during the duel is prohibited. Please take out any potions that you have in your belt, and put them in your stash, or have me hold them for you while you duel. Dont want any mistakes to happen.
-All duels will take place in nightmare difficulty, in the Blood Moor.
-The Blood Moor is to be cleared before dueling commences. This includes removing any arrows, potions, or other items that may have an effect on the duel.
-Leaving the blood moor at any time during the duel is not allowed, if a sorceress tele's into town, she must remain in town.
-Any third party programs are banned from being used while you are dueling. You run diablo ii and join a game. You do not alt tab to activate your map hack, d2hackit etc. If i find anyone breaking this rule, their team will automatically be eliminated.
-Amazons MAY NOT stack arrows / bolts outside of town, or get them from
ANY outside source. This includes a teammate.
-You may carry any item in your inventory to change to in the middle of duel.
-There may only be 1 class of each character per team. No three zon teams etc..
-There will be 2 mods in the game, 1 mod per team. Respect your mod.
-Be respectful of your teammates, ANY constant trash talking, flaming, or overall bitching and being very difficulty may result in an IMMEDIATE 1 loss penalty. Grow up children.
-You will not start the duel until 1 of the 2 mods asks both teams if they are ready ,and once they reply yes, he will count down from 5 to 1, and say go. Once go is said you may proceed to duel. If you start at anytime
before this it will count as a loss to your team.
-If in the end, 1 member is left from each team, and they both die simultaneously it will count as a draw, and a rematch will occur.
-Stealing gold from an opponent will not be tolerated.
-If you die, please be quiet and let the remaining players duel.
-You dont have to like your opponents, but you do have to act mature. If you dont like your opponents just hit the ignore button, and I will do enough communicating so the duel goes smoothly.
-Item changes may be made in the middle of a round. Rules for this are as followed:
---Teammates may not carry gear for you, you are responsible for your own.
---Gear may be tossed to ground and picked up by a mod if it is agree'ed before the match begins. Both must be agree'ed upon. Some participants may not want to dodge items you are fine throwing on the ground to do a gear switch. Some dont mind. Also, some people are fine with a mod picking it up, some arent. ALL players must agree on these before a match begins if anyone is going to do a mid match gear switch.
-If a team wishes, they may duel as a 2 Person Team for a match if thier 3rd can not make it, a match can not be done at a later date, and they dont want to sub thier 3rd member out. Note: Once a round begins as a two man team, it WILL stay a two man team.
Substitutions:
========
Substitutions may only be made if a teammate is unable to compete, make a match date, or is dismissed by the team captain.
-Substitutions will be allowed with these rules followed.
1. Once a teammate has been subbed for he may NOT re-enter the tourney at a later date, or match.
2. The Sub must be of the same class the person who is being subbed out. Example: a Druid Pally Zon Team exists. The team's pally cannot make the match, the team can sub him for another pally.
3. Person who is used as a sub can not of be a member of an existing team, or a team that was eliminated.
4. Charachter that is used cannot belong to the person who is being subbed. Which means a different person can NOT use a character on the same account as the person who is subbing.
5. If any of the tourney officials (guys who are running it) are not notified of a Substitution before matches and it is done without thier approval, you will be DQ'ed. NO EXCEPTIONS
6. Players are NOT allowed to change charachters in middle of tourney. What this means is that a teammate may not change from his original charachter that was entered. Example: An Assassin player after 2 rounds wants to change from his Melee to his Trapper. Same person playing, different character being used. If this occurs this will result in an immediate DQ.
Team Changes:
========
Changes to your team can be made as many times as needed before round 1 Begins.
Substitutions made be made Between rounds, not matches.
All team changes / substitutions need to be ok'ed by me.
Contact me at DrowX@hotmail.com to request these. Or if you have any suggestions or questions about rules.
Entry Fee:
========
Due to many people asking about prizes, there will be a small entry fee to provide for the winners. This entry fee will be 3 SOJS (Stone of Jordan Rings) 1 Soj per teammate.
The entry fee will be collected by one of the three organizers your first round of tourney, so please have that ready. Duel will not start untill all entry fees are paid. Failure to pay will result in a DQ.
Sojs will be put on a seperate account and after the winner is declared as well as second place team. The sojs will be split 90/10.
Rounds / Pairings:
========
The way this tourney will work, is all matchups will be done on weekends. During the week, one of the 3 people running the tourney will email you about which day your team can make it. Saturday,Sunday, or Either. There will be a 2 hour or so time frame in which you will be able to show up for your match. If you dont, immediate DQ. No exceptions.
