While I am addicted to Guild Wars' awesome arena PvP system, places to "PK" have their place in RPG's, I suppose. But, of course, a free for all would not work in Guild Wars for balance reasons (healer monk versus everyone else? i think not!)

So, I was thinking that if there was a random 4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4v4 arena, you could get that random and chaotic feeling while still retaining as much balance as possible. If you hadn't counted, that is 12 teams of 4. As opposed to the Tomb's 6 teams of 8. I don't think that could be too much of a load on the servers... or could it?

If you have any good alternatives or anything related, please post them here. I don't like getting PKed out in the middle of no where, but this is about as close to a fun and chaotic free for all that I think GW could get without losing fairness and balance to all classes.

Whould it just be possible (but extremly unlikey) to have 4 monks on the same team done randomly?

I would have found that very amusing if it happend to me.

Good idea, although my stragetgy in it would be to stay in one spot hiding while everyone else kills each other

Possible but not plausable.

No Idea

This could work, though it must be carefully done, and many factors to be considered. One of the main ones is the strain on the servers.

Strain?

Its the same amount of players, is it not?

Just change your team of 4's color to green and everyone elses to red.

Scramble...
