This area is 'Safe' meaning if you die here, you will not lose any items.
However, if you are poisoned outside of the event/area you can still die. |
Into glorious battle
On the outskirts of the TzHaar city, there is a large arena known as the Fight Pit. Used mainly for training and trials by the hunters of the TzHaar race, they've opened it up and are allowing outsiders to fight for the glory of being the Champion!
The TzHaar Fight Pit is a fast-paced multi-player game, with no limits and no restrictions. Are you tough enough to outlast everyone else in this gladiatorial fight to be the last person standing?
Location
Location of the TzHaar Fight Pit
The TzHaar city is located deep under the volcano on Karamja. To get there, locate the volcano dungeon and go down into it. Once down you should immediately see another dungeon entrance, made from a lava-like material. On entering this, you will be in the TzHaar area. From the entrance, go north to the main plaza, head west and then south, almost heading back on yourself.
Requirements
There are no quest requirements for the Fight Pits. However, a high combat level is advised if you wish to be the last person standing.
Recommended Items
As the Fight Pits is basically 'safe player-killing', an inventory similar to what you would take to player kill is advised.
Please note: You will not lose items if you die in the Fight Pits.
Please note that some people do not wish to use food in the pits, but if you wish to survive a lot of attacks, it is definitely advised.
If you intend on fighting for a long time, then it may be wise to take an antipoison potion, in case you get poisoned. As always with any fights, it is advised that you should take a large supply of food - the higher-healing you have the better - some Prayer restore potions and possibly tactical equipment.
Fighting in the Pits
Viewing orb interface
The aim of the game is survival. Can you be the last person standing? There are many ways to play this game, simple as it may seem but you must adopt the winning strategy to survive.
Once you have arrived at the Fight Pits, pass through into the waiting area. If there is no game on at the moment then wait. As soon as there are two or more people waiting, the game will begin.
If there is a game in play, you can use the viewing orbs to view into the pits and move around between orbs to watch the action.
When you enter the pit, you must wait for Tzhaar-Mej-Kah's signal before you can fight. Use this time to find the group you are with, or to hide and take cover where no one is. The number of players alive in the pit (and the last champion) is displayed on the game screen.
Your main danger is teams, a group of friends, (or newly met friends in the waiting area!) that have decided not to attack each other but to all 'gang up' on individual players.
The simple solution to this is to get a team of your own! If you are alone and have use of the Ancient Magicks, it will be possible for you to hit the team with a multicombat attack. If the team members are wearing armour, then the damage they can take is devastating.
A large drawback with teams in the Fight Pit is that it must end somewhere; the game has a limit and you will be killed, so how much do you really trust your teammates?
If you do last and wait with the other survivors, then the TzHaar will finish the fight for you, sending in, at first, a wave of level 22 Tz-Kih, which drain Prayer as they attack. If you clear these, the TzHaar will bring the next onslaught, a wave of level 45 Tz-Kek, which can be harmful in large amounts. If you beat these, finally, a large amount of level 90 Tok-Xil will turn up and begin to use Ranged attacks and after these, you will get constantly hit with 1's, so this is the point that it is everybody for themselves!
Rewards
The reward from the Fight Pits is Champion status! You will have the 'red skull' mark to show everyone else. If you are the champion and leave the pits (by passing through the fire wall), you will be rewarded a variable amount of 'TokKul' which is the currency the TzHaar use. If you win, there is a chance that you will receive a Hybrid Armour robe top. An interface will appear, and you will be able to choose which type you want (Battle Mage, Trickster, Vanguard).
