Talk:Winning streak

I'm curious about this page, as there's not much here. I see that it's linked from a game update page that indicates there are faction bonuses for "winning streaks." The way the article is worded, a winning streak is winning multiple battles without party deaths. How many battles? Does a winning streak really require that no-one in your party dies, or just that you win a certain number of battles? I'm going to go ahead and stick a stub status on this until it gets a little more info. --Squeg 03:09, 19 October 2005 (EST)

I would like to question the statement that winning 10 games in a row takes you to the team arena. What does that mean? --Karlos 04:30, 19 October 2005 (EST)
 * I think what the poster was trying to say was that if you win 10 matches in a row in the competition arenas it takes you to tombs battles. I've heard that that is the case anyway, I don't know as I don't pvp much and the longest streak I've had in the random team arenas was I think 5 matches.  --Rainith 04:34, 19 October 2005 (EST)
 * I believe that is a myth. I'm not much of a PvP player, but I have been part of a 14 game winning streak during PvPX. And just the logic is flawed. The Tournament Arena is 8 players, competition is 4. Tombs require a VERY high level of coordination and sophistication that is specifically not required in 4x4 quick matches. --Karlos 04:53, 19 October 2005 (EST)


 * Karlos, see below, i'm not talking about tombs. And i have been on teams winning > 10 times in random arenas and the behavior I describe does indeed occur.  I think the confusion stems from the deldrimor arena also being called the "Hall of Hero's" in game.  Perhaps this sounds to some people like the "Tomb of Kings".   --Squeg 05:07, 19 October 2005 (EST)


 * or maybe i'm wrong about the hall of hero's thing... other reading seems to suggest that this is actually the same as the tomb of primeviel kins. I'll have to double-check this in game.  In either case, you advance from the random 4v4 teams to the player created 4v4 teams, after 10 consecutive wins on a random team. --Squeg 07:48, 19 October 2005 (EST)


 * Rainith, you're not quite correct. Let me restate... The competion arena outside of lion's arch is the "random team" arena that you get when creating a PvP only character.  In this arena both sides consist of teams assigned automatically by the game.  You cannot create your own team in this arena.  In this arena, if your team wins 10 matches in a row, then your team is transported to the deldrimor arena where all teams are created by the players instead of by the game.  In my experience this is often referred to as the "team arena" although i am not certain from memory how it is listed on the map.  This is different than the "tombs" which features 8v8 teams in an escalating series of encounters.


 * My first thought was that winning streak was a reference to this 10 wins moves you to the new arena experience. However, as I'm not really sure what winning streak is supposed to mean, I'll remove the line until there is further clarification. If further clarifcation is not made, then I recommend removing the article as right now it really provides no pertinent information that could not be gleaned from the title itself. --Squeg 05:07, 19 October 2005 (EST)


 * Ah, well, like I said, I don't PvP much and the only PvPing I've done is with my regular character, I've never made a PvP specific character. I figured what I stated might wrong or only partially right, but that someone would get the gist and correct me.  :)  --Rainith 05:36, 19 October 2005 (EST)
