Last night, we were contacted by the GM Abydos regarding arranged dueling. The situation involved 5 Albs surrounding 1 Midgard. We were told to move on, and I tried to ask for clarification but the GM would not respond to my questions so I hope this forum is a more convenient location, then.

We encountered the Midgard player around 10:30 PST. Since the Midgard player was solo, I objected to running him over with our group of five. So I told my groupmates they were welcome to duel him.

My question is what constitutes arranged dueling? We never contacted the Midgard player but happened upon him randomly as presumably all encounters do in Emain. Is it illegal to have a groupmate face off against the person?

Don't know the exact circumstances but if it is exactly as you described then it shouldn't be against the rules imo..

Well regarding the rules you are not forced to attack a enemy.

But its not allowed to die to an enemy on purpose ^^

If this is true then it's one big load of crap.

Its not crap, its not allowed to let the opponent win on purpose. This is called RP farming. Yesterday we banned a player 1 month for doing exactly this.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

it happens to much times 2 realms vs one realm without killing each other, that counts solos and also grps

best i saw more than one time ... hib and mid solo vs 1 alb, kill the alb, wave to each other and leave without killing each other

or a grp of mids dont kill an alb, i aks the alb wtf why he dont kill you and he said thats my guild in mid ...

We do not allow duel setups ,such as described with players of different realms sitting in a circle doing /bow before every fight.

This will be considered arranged duels.


Nothing more to discuss.
