Hey,

I would like to suggest to revalidate Bloodbath event all together.
It is an useless relic of the past and one could argue its doing more harm
than benefit to the game in its current shape and form.

When event launches usually over 50% of active players just log off and
ongoing parties are disbanded. If it launches during an EQ run it might mean
an useless 20-40minute delay to the run or even fail on worst case for no
reason whatsoever.
(No exp gained during event globally nor you cannot raise anyone who dies to
even NPCs)

For what, usually you can count kills and contesters with 1 to 5 fingers and
today this was the outcome which wasn't surprising:

The blood red demon shouts 'THE BLOOD BATH HAS ENDED.'
The blood red demon shouts 'WHAT! No kills'?
Peace and order is restored to the world. Stop fighting each other.

And would also suggest disabling the event while figuring what to do about it.

BR,
Z
