Battlegrounds

Battlegrounds are a place for players to engage in PK combat without any of the usual consequences. They are instanced arenas away from the standard MUD where everyone can fight without rules like persistent aggro and clan aggression applying. No experience will be lost on death. Credits and corpses are transported to the hospital on Coruscant. Anyone inside the battleground, and their droids, will be ejected to the initial rally point upon conclusion. Non-PKs are allowed to use LR droids within the battleground. Victory in a battleground will provide a buff to experience gain.

Battleground Modes:

• Boss - A boss monster will spawn along with the player(s) inside the battleground. The first to defeat this mob will win.
• Battle Royale - As the battle progresses, corrosive gas will creep into the arena. It will slowly surround a randomly chosen centerpoint. The last player standing will be victorious.
• Spaceball - The galaxy's favorite sport. A spaceball will randomly appear somewhere in the arena along with a basket on the arena's dock. Players score points by dunking the ball into the basket. The first player to score 3 points, or the last player standing, will be the champion.
• Beacon - Beacons will spawn randomly around the arena along with mobs from each alignment. Reinforcements will also spawn in on a timer. Teams will score a point for each beacon held exclusively by members of their alignment every tick of the scoreboard. The first team to 20 points, or the last team standing, will triumph.
