Hunters,

Running alongside our Bloodshed: Bileweavers PVE contest we have a new community PVP contest, Death Rites. This contest focuses on killing enemy Hunters and will run from today until the 10th November.

To get started, all you need to do is play as a Hunter from one of the below teams and kill any enemy Hunters. Both teams have different types of Hunters, and we have made sure free Hunters have been included so everyone can join in! Every kill earns your team a point—and when the dust settles, the team with the highest kill count wins and unlocks a particular reward for the entire community.
