Wanna get away from the OHKO/2HKO's, spammy-shooter, run-and-heal-because-I'm-losing, and I'm-the-host-so-I'll-take-advantage-of-my-hp-advantage-in-every-way pvp? The idea here is to create an environment where fighting technique is more important than your skills at healing or gun use, where phantoms and hosts are bound by rules to make them equal, and where OHKO against a phantom is much harder or even impossible.

Location: Sinister Ihyll Root Chalice closed glyph c2zig77r
The arena is in the second room past the Layer 1 lamp.

Guidelines:
Level 100-120. 110 is recommended.
Lead Elixir is banned.
Bone marrow ash is banned.
Blood vial limit is 2 for host and 3 for phantoms.
Choir bell counts as 2 vials and may not be used to exceed the vial limit.
One gem is allowed per weapon
Damage gems are banned on guns. Pulsing gems are acceptable.
Flamesprayer and Rosmarinus may not be upgraded past +6
No Clawmarks runes.

Suggestions:
Gunspam is frowned upon here. Try to limit your firearm use and focus more on your melee weapon.
If you run from a fight, you will get trolled and/or blocked and/or banned from the club.
If you encounter someone breaking the rules of the glyph, please remind them of the rules or send them the link to this thread and block them if they do not change their course of action. They do not need to interfere with our sessions and this will shut down any deliberate trolling.
Bring at least one fully-gemmed weapon to use as a backup if you are getting trolled and to use for any level-clearing you have to do.
Please understand that the rules have been scrutinized and examined from every angle by many players. Every rule has its purpose and works toward our goal of balance.
Bow, Buff, Fight, gg. Respect is mandatory.

We're pretty sure that covers it. All players are welcome. We usually meet on Fridays and Saturdays. Good Hunting!

Note: Add one of the 2 Pure Souls members so that we may add you to the fight club chat. If you ever want to get some sessions going, just ask in the chat.

Add me please, PSN name is Viesczy (just like here).

My current build is a jack of all trades sorta @ 120, my stats are skl/str/arc @ 25, BT @ 10, Vit @ 50 & End 35.

How about a super awesome GAWD fight... bare hand parry vs. a weapon (no gun or spells)? No healing for the weapon guy. I do NOT want to be the parry guy as I am slightly better @ parries in BB than DS! It would be dodge/slap death spiral for me!

Imo Choir Bell shouldn't be count as a vial imo, takes forever to cast. If you let someone pull one off, they deserve the heal.

If you must at all cost charge it, charge it only 1 vial. I can do more damage than the person can heal when they're using that bell.

We are assuming that most players using the Choir Bell will be arcane builds at or close to 50 in the arcane stat. With 50 in arcane the Choir Bell heals 880 hit points which basically is just shy of 1.5 times a heal from a blood vial. Choir Bell is also not punishable by a heal parry. In the end we wanted this decision to be strategic on the players part.

Choir bell will actually heal more damage than you can deal while they use it in this club. Under full-gem conditions, I'd totally agree with you, but we simply don't see that much output under single-gem rules. The highest damage in a single hit recorded in the club was 885 on a counterhit Stake Driver charged r2 on an arcane build. The rest of our damage values are anywhere between 70 and 600, depending on the weapon used, the build it's used on, the gem quality, the move used, and whether it gets a counterhit bonus.

BTW, viesczy, I will add you if Dan doesn't first. I probably won't be able to until about 24 hours from now, but I'll try to get you in there by then. Unless Dan beats me to it, which he probably will since he's home from work 3 hours or more before I usually am.

We just wanted to let everyone know that we found a new dungeon for our FC (updated in the OP) that has a lamp in much closer proximity to the arena and only one enemy to clear before fighting. We're looking forward to a lot of good fights tomorrow night, so tune in on Arctic_dan's Twitch channel to watch, or add one of us to join in on the action. New faces are always welcome!

As long as Dan triple taps before every fight like he was doing in Nightmare Frontier last week... I think I can take him!

Dan is definitely not a bad player. He does quite well in the club, which will be meeting tonight ^-^ I hope to see you there, viesczy

Thank you for all whom joined us this weekend

you guys still running this thing? I'd love to fight the guys who created the wheel bible. that thing is amazing by the way. the hours you put in creating it is staggering and it's without question the most helpful page on any weapon in the entire wiki. my new build is based completely on it:
LVL108
VIT 50
END 14
STR 50
SKL 12
BT 6
ARC 26
on my way to an Uncanny Wheel with physical gems and normal wheel with nourishing.

Anyway, my psn is TallBeardedOne and if you guys are still fighting I'd love to join. Let me know.
(Also, I assume your in the US? Just so I know what time zone you're in.)
