1) More tactical free-for-all, with deathblows and preps disabled, but with much lower damage. I.E. the usual hero MANGLE becomes an injure. Basically give everyone ABS and see who wins the long-winded cage match and how. All other preps should be disallowed. Resist, Deathblow and Critical are very unbalanced in that world and thus should be disallowed. Arguable about poultice and field dressing. Since no one uses other preps, ragers don't get to use theirs. Probably need to nerf healing in that fight as well.

2) Grouping-prohibited cage match. Basically, you're free to hit anyone, but can't group with anyone. Also can't prep anyone else (invoker shields, bard songs, etc, should only affect you, the caster.)

3) Midranked cage match. Usually they are reserved for heroes, but midranked also want to have fun I suppose. Don't know what to about deathblow there though. Might be fine, but probably not.

4) Global quests that involve solving puzzles and fighting mobs that might have gobs of HP and special attacks, but that deal damage according to your level. For example, you're level 20 and find the Ultimate Hydra of Doom and begin to fight it. Normally in those situations, it breathes an UNSPEAK and you're done. However, if the damage scales to your level, you might eat a DISMEMBER or something like that. If, however, three heroes show up, then it breathes that UNSPEAK on them. Might be more feasible to have the Hydra invoke the Honorable Duel when you hit it so that you two can duke it out in a level-appropriate battle as opposed to a mix of levels wailing on one mob. (Each character who gets to the place where the mob is gets his own version of it to fight.)

P.S. Don't pay any heed to Murphy, 99% of us enjoy immteraction and I know I'd stop playing if it didn't exist.
