Pandaria Remix Level 20 Events

[Conzil]

So... Remix is coming soon™.

New chars, new gear, new abilities with the help of gems. I think this is the perfect opportunity to have some fun level 20 events.
This thread is just to see if people would be interested in participating or not.

Note that rules and event details may change, this is still in early stages of planning

This will only be for EU
Level 20s only

Basic dueling tournament
Single-elimination
Best of three for most games
Best of five for semi-final and final
Up to 5min break between each duel to reset cooldowns
Some talents may be banned (Looking at you Stormkeeper)
Might ban https://www.wowhead.com/ptr/item=210333/cloak-of-infinite-potential?bonus=9598 if it turns out it's too overpowered
This will take place during 1-2 days depending on participation
Prizes are TBD but expect good things

Both EU and US will be able to participate in this
Level 20s only

Your group vs. another group running the same dungeon at the same time to complete it the fastest
Single-elimination
Best of three for most games
Best of five for semi-final and final
Which dungeon is run will be decided by randomizer, after that losing team picks next one
Heroic version of the dungeon (if they still allow us to do them once it's out for real)
Might ban https://www.wowhead.com/ptr/item=210333/cloak-of-infinite-potential?bonus=9598 if it turns out it's too overpowered
This will take place during 1-2 days depending on participation
Prizes are TBD but expect good things​

The Party Never Stops!

Like the idea for the dungeons especially, but the EU only stipulation closes that door. (Since dungeons will also be US, I might be interested.)

Dungeon one is EU and US, only Dueling one is EU only.

I'm down for anything on US servers. Might make a new f2p account on an EU server for panda remix duels too.

These characters aren't permanent, or am I miss understanding remix?

After remix is over they get moved to your normal realms, all gear will be replaced with the gear upgrade set.

So I should participate in this.. Interesting, I may have to put my F2P Fire Mage on hold if the Remix offers better gear.

It wont be better gear once the mode is over, it's the same gear as you get from the gear upgrade system if you havnt played for a while.
The reason why you should play this mode is cuz it's fun and also tons of collectibles from it.

 

[CIHC]

I was looking at the mage CM mog if it's on the list. Good to know

 

[Conzil]

Bumping this for visibility

 

[Conzil]

So... What y'all think? Should we do these or nah?
Doesn't seem like a lot of people are interested.

 

[Dev]

I think we'd at least need enough people for the teams, and since there's no current method I'm aware of to freeze xp like there is outside of remix, subscribers can't keep playing and hold at 20, which complicates matters.

If you make a solo player category for the dungeon runs I'd be interested. Taking away the cloak defeats the purpose of this mode for me.

I mean, then it would only be a cloak measuring contest
My whole idea with this was to test different builds with gems and such.

 

[Conzil]

Won't be doing these, too little interest, got something else in mind tho
