[. . . ] Get familiar with this system because it is central to your success in the arena!The Eye of Amaterasu Now go to the Eye of Amaterasu. Click on the Eye of Amaterasu to open it up. Depending on the item and the token, you will be presented with a menu. Choose your upgrade and watch the cool effects!Now open the Eye of Amaterasu and examine your item. And that's basically how the whole thing works!Now go back to the Arena and kick some ass with your new upgrades!By now you should have got the idea on how to progress in the arena using tokens and upgrades. 4 Hint: As soon as you get 5000 gold, go buy a bronze token and upgrade your boots with the haste property. Entering the Arena First-time characters will be stripped of all gold and items. The arena has all of its own regulated items and a unique currency. Any external gold or items would imbalance the challenge. New players will be given an Arena of Champions (AOC) membership card. All players who possess this card will not be stripped upon re-entry to the arena. The Character Builder Using Starfall, you can receive or take levels, change your alignment and remove items and/or gold from your character. The primary purpose of this module is to facilitate the building of characters in the pursuit of perfecting the art of character building. The arena is particularly well suited to uber builds and should challenge them well. The secondary purpose of this mod is to provide a challenging and fun single player arena. Items There is a range of standard items available. If you wish to upgrade them, you will have to earn arena tokens and use the awesome Eye of Amaterasu. This is further explained in the appropriate sections of this manual. The Eye of Amaterasu 5 The Arena The arena has been designed for level 40 characters only. If you can last more than 30 seconds with a lower level character, please send me the build details. Your Game Host If you choose any good or neutral alignment, Starfall will be your host and you will face 10 champions of darkness in the arena. If you choose any evil alignment, Mephisto will be your host and you will face 10 champions of light in the arena. The champions of light are more difficult than the champions of darkness. [. . . ] This means that all spells memorised and all special abilities will be available again. You can block access to these pools using the arena console or the levers in the character building area. This is more for multiplayer duelling where players want to remove the temptation of cheating by heading for these pools to deny their opponent victory. E - Restoration Fountains These fountains work the same way as the rejuvenation pools, only they give the player greater restoration. Disabling them works the same way as the rejuvenation pools. F - The Storage Chests When you collect tomes, your enemies will only drop a tome if you don't already possess it. [. . . ]
