Fight Pits

TzHaar built a bowl. Last one standing. Tokkul, not a flag.

The bowl

19 September 2005

Fight Pits land with the TzHaar. The update is called Massive minigame — Fight Pits. You walk in. You do not leave until one body stands. The last name wears a red skull. Tokkul is the purse, counted off the combat levels you put down. Your items stay. This is not a clan portal.

The city under the volcano

TzHaar are not humans in a costume. They are lava with a law. The pit is how they measure a fighter without breaking the city. Fight Cave is you against waves. The Inferno is a later cave. The Elder Kiln and the TokHaar are a different fight. Do not mix those rules into this bowl.

How a leader settled it

A wipe costs the clan name. A lot of leaders would not pay that for one argument. They sent one fighter. Sometimes the whole clan walked into the circle and stayed until one skull was left. No flag. No purple contract. The argument ended when the champion walked out. That habit is older than Ferox. The coloured door came in December 2007, when captains wanted terms instead of a circle. This is how players used the bowl. It is not a Jagex rule.

Old School — Mor Ul Rek

West of the inner city. Fairy ring BLP, or the minigame teleport. The public activity world is 362. The bag stays. The bowl fills on a clock. Tz-Kih at ninety seconds. Then Tz-Kek, Tok-Xil, Ket-Zek, then TzTok-Jad. At eleven and a half minutes the gas hits every tick. The skull lasts about an hour. It falls off if you teleport, change a weapon, pray overhead, hop, log out, or take a hit from a monster. Wiki for the live clock. Do not paste Ferox doors onto this bowl.

RuneScape — TzHaar City

Same bowl. Later grammar. TokKul-Zo is the fast door. Death is safe. On 13 May 2008 the waiting room was not safe. That was the day TokTz-Ket-Dill came out. People lost bags. It was fixed the same day, and the abuse was banned. That hour is history. It is not the rule now. On 17 March 2009 the entrance was put back. A global pit existed from June 2011 to February 2012, then left. The kiln is still not this pit.

What the pit is not

Not Clan Wars. Not Castle Wars. Not Deadman All Stars. Not a creator purse. A pit is a circle. A clan war is a contract on a coloured door.

Champion

One name at a time. Tokkul in the purse. No team flag.

The circle people watch

Floor · purse · stage. Three different fights.

Clan Wars

The portal is the law. The money fights are usually somewhere else.

How a fight is called

  • A captain sends the challenge. If you cannot open the sheet, you are not the captain.
  • Old School uses a chat-channel rank. RuneScape uses Friends Chat.
  • Read every box. Food off is a different fight.
  • Two-minute wall. Late is a spectator.
  • One caller. One name. The pile clicks that name.

Old School — Ferox

Ring of dueling, minigame teleport, or a waka canoe. Pool first. Purple when the terms are agreed. White is practice. Mage and range can fire while the wall is up. Melee waits.

RuneScape — Grotto

North of Falador. Purple is the war. White keeps the bag. Red drops it, so turn Protect Item on. Do not mix the ability bar and Legacy in one pile.

The bowl is above this. Last one standing. No captain. No wall.
