 * LUKAS? WTF IS THIS ASSHATTERY?!?! I'M GOING TO BE THAT TWAT? --Blue.rellik 06:38, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * omg i get to be Cynn!! --Alreajk
 * LOL, yes you 2 can chase after Mhenlo

I wonder if the "Spawned" weapon is deleted once you leave the Costume Brawl???


 * Thank goodness that I hate warriors...I would love to pwn smug arrogant prideful mile-high-ego left-handed warriors, kurzick or not. Flechette 07:29, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Ehhhh shut-upu ur face-ey --Blue.rellik 07:41, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry ANet, the correct answer for male warrios was Prince rurik- Kalle Damos
 * Anet vs. Kalle: 0-1 !! [[Image:ShadyGuy.jpg]] 14:12, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes Please!!!!! Make that 0-2 because that suggestion is Awesome. Who cares about Lukas? I mean, Cantha doesnt even get redecorated :p. (Maybe it'll change? I would love to see a halloween HzH haunted house.) If we're gonna be a male warrior, let us be Rurik or Killroy, or even Koss because thats cooler than Lukas.
 * All heroes and henchmen. So I'd root for Koss. Otherwise... My picks: Sin:Shiro and Vizu, Rit: Togo and Xandra, Para: Kormir and General Morghan, Derv: Varesh and ... (nfc), Warrior: Rurik and Devona, Ele: Cynn and Zhedd, Ranger: Aiden and Zho (dead on), Necro: Eve and Lich, Monk: Menhlo and Pre-searing Lina (because lawl), Mesmer: Gwen and Lo Sha (Dunham is cuter but Lo Sha doesn't suck)&mdash; ♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 19:31, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

So do you think it will be 1 skill set per prof, or 1 per prof+gender? Lord Belar 22:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Bah, they should replace Tahlkora with Jamei so we can have a 3 way battle with Mhenlo and Cynn ^^. Also, replace the female mesmer with Gwen but make her a Me/E and load her up with fire spells :D SavageX 22:26, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Well, since it's gonna be a BRAWL... I think there will be some brawling skills like in dwarven boxing. Plus (I hope!!!) some prof-specific skills. Arr. ALWAYS forget to sign >.< fR0z3n.S0u1 06:32, 25 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Maybe it's just me, but I can't see Tahlkora taking out a pair of brass knuckles and pounding away at Kahmu's face. I think what'll happen is we get a set of normal but set skills for each character, maybe similar to what these same charcters got as skill-sets in the Norn Fighting Tournament. -- Marin  Bloodbane  10:37, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

i was thinking that the character we use gets the default skills set for that type of henchmen i dunno though.maybe im wrong (Bog 13:51, 25 October 2007 (UTC))

Koss > Lukas, and SEAGUARD HALA? Forgot about Gwen, didn't we? Why doesn't she get to be played as! =( 99.237.74.130 03:14, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Probably because we'll get to play as her in the Bonus Mission Pack --71.98.100.170 12:05, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Bobby has appeared in LA, Kamadan, and the Great Temple of Balthazar.

Assassin -


 * This needs an article of its own imo. --Sekkira 20:38, 26 October 2007 (GMT)

Mesmer


 * It isn't that good but I can say its useful in alot of situations they can completely own the other casters, they are the only ones with E-denial and they can(not very well) punish attacking with empathy but with no self defence(skills or hexes) or speed boost their very vulnerable to the rangers,warriors and dervishes.(Marsc 23:49, 26 October 2007 (UTC))

Thank You so much for puting up the skill bars! I was going to do it, but thank God I don't have to now!--Wakleon 01:28, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Anyone else notice that all the skill bars have their elites at the front, EXCEPT monk? - Kalle Damos

Disappointed
I have to express my uttermost disappointment over this minigame, for several reasons listed:
 * Losing: You lose, you walk away empty handed. This sucks big time since you are spending time and getting nothing out of it if you lose, except for the supposedly "fun time".
 * Layout: Team up with 4 other random players. It´s nothing more then Random Arena, and hey, we got that already!
 * The Prize: The prize is 1 Trick-Or-Treat Bag and 7 Gamer Points. You can farm the bags at 10 times the speed it takes for you to get 1 from a brawling game. As for the 7 gamer points you´d have to play, AND win! 143 times to even get the first rank Skillz.
 * Skills: You´re using the skills used by the representative henchmen of your proffession. Erhm, okey!? Nothing new here. Same skills as always only slightly worse then your normal layout would look like in the arena.
 * Reliance: You play with 4 other random players. ''So the only prize worth winning is really 7 gamer points...and you have to rely on 4 other people to get those points!!?!

Feel free to add more or bust my balls, whatever helps you sleep at night... This is just my oppinion! --Soulflame 22:36, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Its spelled prize, you only have to rely on 3 other people, and finally, its a game.--[[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg]]igathrash Talk^Cont 22:41, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah like my bad grammar was the point of all this.´"It´s a game" is a bad excuse of having no oppinion... --Soulflame 23:09, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks ArenaNet for another boring, crappy thing NOT to participate in!! Nerthing 23:13, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * /agree--[[Image:Marcopolo47 signature new.jpg]] (Talk) (Contr.) 01:53, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I lol'd at the word "loosing."--4.242.42.131 23:19, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Made some corrections in my spelling for all you smartasses out there... --Soulflame 23:52, 26 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Losing: You expect a treat for sucking? You want a prize?...Win it.
 * Layout: Just like all other event arenas... Snowballs, random arena... etc. Are you saying they were all rubbish?
 * The Prize: Apart from treat bag and Balthazar Faction (which you didn't mention). Gamer points are something you get only in special events. A hard-to-get title is a worthy title for display, no?
 * Skills: Again, just like in past event arena. This is to give beginners a chance to participate in the game (because it might not be there anymore when they will become more experienced)
 * Reliance: This is what PvP is all about... rely on your teammates.

Thank you to this unsigned post for this. You don't like what they do? Don't play. If anet let us take our own skill bars in there would be nothing but wikisins, BA rangers, spirt spamers, rit/sins, 55monks and necros, and heavy nukers. There would be no paragons, dervishes, necromancers, warriors, or mesmer at all! once again, don't like it, don't complain. - Kalle Damos

My complaint would be how unbalanced it is for some professions. The Ele build is really weak on healing and not even that great on damage. I have yet to win a match with my Ele and have let to lose one with my Ritualist. The snowball fight of 2006 had a similar problem, though the 2005 one was much better because the unbalanced profession changes didn't exist yet (plus there were hardly any leechers). It's one thing to make builds that rely on others if you can form your own teams but since this is Random Arena it becomes unbalanced. Luckily, playing my Ritualist is fun but if all I had to play was my Ele then this would be a complete waste. I don't think we should be able to take out own skill bars in but I do think they should have spent more time making things balanced enough that every profession can participate and enjoy it. And because of that I don't see any problem in bashing ANet for making something that isn't fun because entertainment is what they are supposed to be good at. Argel 06:47, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

MAP
What map does this take place on?

Health, energy, and armor
I know your health gets set to 600 and nothing, like +hp mods or runes, can change it. Same with energy, though I assume the amount you get is based on your profession. But what about armor? I assume it gets set to your professions default, otherwise it would be unfair to players without max armor. But what if you have any +armor insignia? --Macros 23:24, 26 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Don't think armour insignias have any affect either if radiant insignias hasn't increased my base energy. Also to mention for completeness, like the Dragon Arena no extra factions and points are given for consecutive wins of 5 or more and flawless victories. Reichi Aryon 03:44, 27 October 2007 (UTC)


 * -5 eng mods on weapons does not lower your energy too, good chance to show off my r8 collection =)

Derv bar
Anyone else think that bar is complete bull, especially when you consider the other bars? It's immune to: the ele and the warrior, and largely the ranger, the sin and the paragon. That leaves Necro (who isn't gonna be faring very well either, can't even weaken the bastard), mesmer (with 1 anti-attacker skill, which blows ass with those high damage scythes), the rit (which is a pretty crappy channeling rit), and the monk..... oh god that monk bar is horrible. It's combining the worst ideas of a healer bar with a half-assed Smiter bar. I mean, come on... Divine Intervention.... and healing breeze.... --Gimmethegepgun 06:22, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Seconded, dervish is imba and the monks a laugh 85.81.126.123 06:39, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
