WELCOME TO BLOODBATH!
I am
Shaman King, leader of the eastern continent of
Shade. Since we have lived on the Darkside, the vampire of my lands have longed for violence and mayhem. Chaos ran rampant in the cities and many suffered at great cost.
I acted not in haste, for I knew the Deathmoon would provide. After time,
the Lost Ones whispered to me that the Mother Moon had a solution. That I could offer them their desire for war, but in a new way. One that was both controlled and rewarding.
And so was born the
Bloodbath of Shade. I now hold this competition regularly for the betterment of vampire. I learn, too, of who is the strongest and who is the weakest of my vampire. By the command of the Moon Mother, I now invite all on the Darkside to join in my bloody festivities!
To learn more of this vampire realm of the Darkside, visit your local
Lore Master.
I look forward to witnessing your prowess as vampire rise and fall. May the Mother Moon bless your victory and sanctify the corpses left behind!

These are the categories for this event. All scores from these categories are tallied on the
Event Scoring screen!
1 | COMBAT SCORE
In this category, every Kill, KO, Relay, and Self-claim you achieve adds to your Team's Combat Score.
If your Team accumulates the most points, you not only receive the prize for this category, but are considered the
winner of this event.
1 = Kill
Kill an opposing team player and receive 1pt for your team
1 = KO
KO an opposing team player and receive 1pt for your team
2 = Relay Bounty
If someone on your team posts a bounty and another on your team claims it, receive 2pt for your team
1 = Self Claim
List and claim your own bounty and receive 1pt for your team
Relay Bounty Example:
DarkVamp of team Blue places a
1,000 bounty on VampRise of team Red.
VampRise (Red) now appears on the Hitlist.
BattleVamp of team Blue claims DarkVamp's (Blue) bounty on the Hitlist.
Because DarkVamp and BattleVamp are on the same team (Blue) and both are working against an opposing team (Red), it is considered a Relay Bounty.
2 | BLOOD TOURNAMENT
In this category you'll be competing for acquiring the most Red Blood. The team with the most red blood accumulated on the event score boards will take the win for this one.
• Anytime you land a
Relay Bounty, your red blood will
double on successful attacks.
Doubled Blood on Relay Example:
Using the Relay Bounty example above...
During the bounty claim, each attack by BattleVamp on VampRise sheds blood before the claim. All blood shed will be shared in equal amount with DarkVamp.
This means that if BattleVamp's attack sheds
90,000, then both players in the Relay would receive the
90,000.
As well, DarkVamp and BattleVamp's amounts both count toward the Blood Tournament scores. This means
180,000 per attack goes to the Blood Tournament boards from this single Relay.
BattleVamp then solely retains the initial bounty listing price. To prevent scoring abuse, bounty listing price does not count toward the Blood Tournament scores.
BONUS! | INDIVIDUAL EVENT LEADERS
Qualifying
Individual Event Leaders are those who end each event day in any of the
Top 20 slots of any daily Event-leaderboard regardless of team.
Only one award set will be given per player, irrespective of how many boards they placed on at end of day.
Awards for Leaders Example:
If you place on four boards end of event day, you still only receive one single prize set for that day.
You will, however, receive another award set should you make any leaderboard on the second day.
