Description[ | ]

Form a team and fight against a randomly selected opponent. Two teams of four fight it out gladiator style.

The Team Arenas (commonly abbreviated as TA) were the location for organized 4v4 PvP. Teams could be of two different groups of people:

  • Organized teams of 4 picked in the outpost
  • Random teams of 4 that arrived in TA by winning 10 consecutive matches in Random Arenas

Team Arenas matches consisted of battles between two teams. The match happened in one of fourteen randomly chosen maps: the thirteen that are also available in Random Arenas, plus the Deldrimor Arena. Most Team Arenas maps have a simple goal: eliminate the opposing team, known as Annihilation. Two maps are somewhat different: The Crag has Kill count, which is to score the most kills in 3 minutes, and Deldrimor Arena has Priest Annihilation, which is the same as regular Annihilation except there is also an NPC priest on each team resurrecting dead allies.

The Team Arenas were previously located near Droknar's Forge, and did not include Heroes' Crypt or Ascalon Arena in their map selection. The arena was moved to The Battle Isles and given the two additional arenas as part of the January 19, 2006 game update.
