Dear players!

For the 4th season of the MasterWork server, we are preparing for you a unique update of the Grand Olympiad .
It will affect modes, arenas, their selection, as well as general improvements. 

If the Grand Olympiad is an integral part of your gameplay, we recommend that you carefully read all the innovations and changes!

 

 

 

accessory_hero_cap_i00.png Best of Three

On the 4th season of the MasterWork server , we introduced a new unique system for the Grand Olympiad - Bo3 !

Bo3 (Best of 3) - “Best of Three” or “up to 2 victories”, a system that allows you to determine the winner in 3 battles (if necessary), in other words “up to two victories” according to the principle “without class restrictions, 1x1” .
Now that you have gone to the Olympiad and an opponent has been selected for you, you will fight with him until one of you gets 2 victories. Thus, if the score is 1-1, the battle will move to the 3rd arena.

Let's take a closer look :

  • You register for the Olympiad (as usual);
  • An opponent is selected for you and teleported to a random arena ;
    • Note!
      • We have expanded the number of Arenas to 9. You will meet both familiar arenas and new ones. More on this separately.
      • On OBT you can observe the logic of random selection of an arena, but already on the season server the “ Ban and Pick ” system of selected arenas will be available to you. More on this separately.
  • All the usual functionality is available to you:
    • NPC Buffer;
    • Time to prepare before the start of the fight.
      • At the 50th second (10 after the teleport), your CP\HP\MP will be restored.
    • Closed gate;
  • After your battle ends (by damage or time), you have 10 seconds, after which you will be moved to the next random arena.
  • After moving to the next arena:
    • You are given the usual time to prepare;
    • Your  CP\HP\MP parameters will be restored (immediately and at the 50th second);
    • Your skills will NOT be restored : they will have the same cooldown as they did during the battle;
      • Including Talismans.
  • If after the second battle the score becomes equal (if, for example, you won the first battle, and your opponent won the second), you will be moved to the 3rd arena.
  • In the third Arena you will also have time to prepare;
  • Based on the results of the 3rd battle, the global winner will be determined;
  • When flying/after flying to the Olympiad, skill cooldown works according to the usual rules:
    • This means that all skills that have a cooldown time of MORE than 30 minutes do not cooldown;
    • Red Talisman 32_lifeforce.pngpanel_2.png- Life Force  will not cooldown;
    • If, when TP'ing to/from the Olympiad, you equip talismans (for example, 32_divineprotection.pngpanel_2.pngBlue Talisman - Divine Protection ), they will cooldown, since they have a cooldown of less than 30 minutes. As was written above - 32_lifeforce.pngpanel_2.pngRed Talisman - Life Force does not cooldown under any circumstances.

Various situations :

  • When restarting/exiting/relogging at any time during the battle (after moving from the city to the Olympiad):
    • The character who made the restart will be declared a loser and points will be deducted from him (and awarded to the opponent);
    • A character who makes a restart will receive a Registration Penalty - within 10 minutes he will not be able to register for the Olympiad;
      • Note! The OBT is set to 2 minutes.
  • A draw means two characters lose (both will lose points);
  • If the first two battles are a draw, there will be no third battle and the characters will move to the city;
  • If in one of the battles there is a victory for one player, and in the other there is a draw, you will be moved to the 3rd arena;
    • In this case, the player who wins once will have a chance to get 2 points and win, and the second will have a chance to get one, tie on points and cause a draw (which leads to the defeat of both characters).
  • The minimum number of available battles within Bo3 is two, the maximum is 3. 

 

Additional information :

  • Limit on the number of battles: 50 (instead of 100);
    • Other Olympiad modes will be disabled.
  • The number of points is awarded as usual;
  • The number of  etc_nobless_teleport_coupon_i00.pngNoblesse Gate Pass and  scroll_of_verification_i00.pngOlympiad Token will be increased proportionately.

 

 

 

image.png New Arenas

The base number of arenas has been expanded from 3 to 9 . You will be able to see both the usual, changed and new Arenas.
In the new Arenas, some “usual” things may work differently: unusual shots, secluded places, and so on. We recommend that you study them, come up with new tactics and strategies.
The overall changes of the Olympiad open up enormous space for imagination and new possibilities. Try it 😉

image.png Ban&Pick (coming soon)

Currently in the final stages of development is a new system of Bans and Picks (blocking and selecting) Arenas, which will allow you and your opponent to block arenas that you definitely do not want to participate in, as well as select arenas that you definitely want to participate in.
After the development and introduction of the Bans and Picks system, it will complement the Bo3 system and work together. In this case, moving through the arenas will not be random, but from the list you select.

General logic:

  • After moving to the Olympiad, a window with 7 arenas will appear in front of you and your opponent;
  • In order of priority, you will do the following:
    • Player_1 blocks the arena;
    • Player_2 blocks the arena;
    • Player_1 selects an arena;
    • Player_2 selects an arena;
    • Player_1 blocks the arena;
    • Player_2 blocks the arena;
    • The 7th arena is automatically selected and will become the 3rd arena if needed during the battle.
  • We currently have 9 arenas, but this system only uses 7. Therefore, each season the arenas will be rotated randomly.
    • An alternative to this would be to add 2 more locks. We are currently exploring this possibility.

Thanks to this system, battles, especially Bo3, will become much more balanced, and you will not have to fight in the Arena, which you consider the weakest for your character.

 

 

 

image.jpeg Conclusions

We kindly ask you to be excited about the changes instead of skeptical and give them a chance. Based on your feedback and our experience, we believe that the new Olympiad may seem unusual, but in the long run it will become a favorite and take its place on par with other successful innovations of MasterWork.
We would like to note that we are ready and will continue to develop new systems and improve current ones. We will be adjusting this system to make your gaming experience as enjoyable as possible. However, in case of a negative reaction, we are ready:

  • Refine, change and correct problem areas;
  • Add a new mode as “optional” on one of the days;
  • Refuse changes and return to the classics. 

Everything will depend on whether you give them a chance and whether you like these changes!
