The Weekly Deathmatch

  • Once more we have our Thursday Weekly Deathmatch, where we pit lower ranking builds from the Character Build section of the site into a fight for survival.

    Here are the ones that Ponty chose this week

    The Time Mage by Arian

    The Dragon Slayer by Rafael Arthou

    The Pale Master by Disciple

    Jarlaxle Baenre by JoDK

    The Arcane Scout by AJ

    The Gray Fox by ironfatman

    Now, it came to my attention that quite a few new members don't really understand the Deathmatch, so I'll explain it again.

    These are builds that languish in the lower reaches of the Character Build ranks. They are not necessarily 'bad' builds (those got cleared out a few weeks back). But they are builds which, for various reasons, have not had much attention or popularity. The Deathmatch sorts out which builds are genuinely overlooked and which actually are not worth keeping on the site.

    So how does it work?

    Firstly take a look at all the builds listed above. There is a poll in the right sidebar to vote for your favourite build. We don't have a 'none of the above' button any more, because these are builds which the CB Hosts kept around even after purging the dross from the site. So, vote for your favourite. At the end of the poll, the one with the most votes definitely stays.

    Additionally you can 'like' the builds on their individual pages. All builds that garner 20 'likes' in the duration of the poll - which is 24 hours - will also survive. So get reading, voting and 'liking' - remember you only have 24 hours!

    Ok, poll closed for this week
    The Pale Master and Jarlaxle will feel the sharp edge of Ponty's sword, the others survive.
    The winner of the poll was the Time Mage - nice build, actually IMO

    Between, I am curious. Does the build pick up for DM are randomly done or based from oldest to newest?

    Hmm, I forgot about the Jarlaxle Baenre one, probably for the best.

    Sorry AJ I wasn't really picking on you with the dlc tagging.
    It's just one of my many silly pet hates. I'm going to withdraw my like from any builds I see doing it in fact...
