Playing
Talk to the Arena Master, choose a challenge, and join the queue. Accept your turn within 30 seconds.
Staying outside the combat boundary for five seconds sends you back to the start without ending the challenge.
For practice without leaderboard entries, run skaldpractice on before choosing a challenge. Matching saved checkpoints resume automatically. Use skaldpractice off to return to competition.
Admin Setup
Admins receive an Arena Admin Hammer.
Place an Arena Core and set its name and boundaries. Add an Arena Master, one Combat Start, and exactly four Enemy Spawn beacons, then enable the arena at the Core.
Add Hall of Champions boards anywhere you want rankings displayed. Press F7 with the Arena Admin Hammer equipped to show or hide setup markers.
