My, that's addictive! (two Arena winners)

Here they are:

Rockz the Higher Berzerker

and Dom the Yeek Summoner

The Arena mode's a lot of fun! It's definitely a different style of play, and I like how it emphasizes a different set of talents than the regular game. Well, not for summoners so much...there's not really a whole lot of variation to be had there in the first place. Max out all your useful talents, destroy everything in your path. Woo!

The Summoner was a lot easier, on the whole, but i doubt anything can rack up the points like a good Death Dance can.

There's not much I'd do differently - I think the rate of equipment drops was pretty well balanced to the difficulty of the enemies, etc. A few things bothered me though, the biggest of which was having the gates eat my loot. "Oh sweet, voratun mail! :shock: Nooooooooo!"

I think the later bosses could use some buffing, though. Maybe Berzerkers and Summoners are just too hardcore, but none of them were really much of a threat. My summoner never had to hit the panic button once, and the biggest problem the 'Zerker had was just chasing them down.

And I was a little disappointed in the 'Zerker Master from my first win. I didn't really check the numbers, and I kept up a good blockade to stop him reaching me, but I feel like he was a lot meaner when I was playing him. Maybe it would have helped if I'd had Shattering Impact on for that last fight, so that the new Master could have inherited it...

On the whole: Well done!
