Ok, I know this is early, but might as well start it before the season starts... a preliminary survey of who everyone thinks will win each division!


FYI, for those that don't know, I resigned from mentors due to time constraints and other things, like Army Basic Training.

Ok, predictions. Who will win each division?

Here's mine:

Division 1 (1-20): Jasentha. She's mostly unknown, but did well in the KK and hasn't circled out of the division she took 3rd in, while I think the 2 that beat her did.
Division 2 (21-40): Ellsrick, Poetus, or Divy. Depending on which has been training the most.
Division 3 (41-60): ME! At least I hope to... I can't be sure though, as I don't have much time to train. someone may very well pass me up and beat me in the finals.
Division 4 (61-80): Rekon. Ruslip is gone, and Lennon is always inactive. I'm not sure if Rekon is still around either but if he is, I think he'll win. Unless he has circled out. In which case I don't know.
Division 5 (81+): This one is a tough one. I'll have to say Relayer from what I know so far... I hear he beat Beliel recently. Although Ciroce has been training hard as well... she might be a match for both. And of course Beliel is the greatest warmie ever to ride a horse, so we'll see.

Ok, now everyone else's turn!

I'm still in that division. And I'm the current champion so watch out. I'm just not sure I'm gonna compete.

Might have to come back give folks a run in that bracket too. Buckle on your bootstraps Calemnon, you might be in for a bumpy ride.

Rekon is in a different division this season.

I may pop in for the jousts since the lances have been fixed to take into account the higher of either halberd or pikes.

P.S. Ask Rekon who whupped his arse after he had won the Kaith Karm championship =O

Hmm, division 5 is all about who's been training the most lately, it seems.

Just curious since I just bought my horse a bit ago....jousting, the some lances app as halberd, some as pike, all as thrown....is the above posted correct that although they app as either halberd or pike they use the highest of the two?

It depends on the lance.

Blunted lances seem to be very buggy by nature. The ones sold on Ratha app as halberd, teach halberd in combat, and use halberd skill when jousting. The ones sold at El Bains in Theren app as halberd, teach PIKE in combat, and use PIKE skill when jousting (much to my dismay whenever I'm forces to use one when jousting). I'm hoping those mentorly people solved this dilemma this time by having both pike and halberd lances.

Seriously though, I think Lance needs to be a completely separate weapon skill, and we should be able to transfer pike or halberd ranks into it. It would solve this dilemma for good.

Supposedly it was fixed so that in a joust it would default to the higher of your skills (pike or halberd). I did joust with Rekon a few weeks ago and it seemed to do just that.

They are still Buggy it defaulted to pike even though im primary halberd. But you are Primary pike is why you did not noticed =P. I hope they fix this too... the way they did it for the KK was perfect give us a Pike lance rack and a halberd lance rack. For now the lances default to what they teach.....

From what I've seen, some default to highest, and some don't.

So the bug doesn't seem to be fully fixed.

I am the current Divison Champ, I beat Rekon to win that Division.
I was lucky Rusty Ruslip was asleep in the saddle, not that he could be seen behind his shield, after the comp he woke up and whipped me.
As the current Div 4 champ I shall return to defend my title.

Who am I?

Wodie, you realize that in that joust the lance defaulted to pikes and Rekon is a halberd user?

Anyhoo, I'll be happy to joust you when you come to try getting the title from me =P

Might be mistaken but riding in division 2 in the last joust the lances were available both based in pike and halberd, just depended if ya grabbed em off the pike or halberd rack of lances.

You are correct, but that is not how things were done LAST season. Last season some jousts had pike/lances, some had halberd/lances.

Sounds to me like someone is too afraid to lay stakes on the joust ::hums::

It's OK though, I really had no desire to see you in that dress. Although mayhaps if you wore it to the joust and I gouged my eyes out with my lance to avoid seeing you in it you'd have a chance to win. Hrmm, nahh you'd still end up stunned on the ground, only this time with Pureblades dress up around your neck ::shudder::
