The Commissary

The Commissary is the PvP Pit's event. About once an hour a guarded chest lands in the Pit. Break it open with a sword or axe and the last hit takes the loot.

When it comes

• About once an hour. /events has a Commissary row with the countdown.
• A visit is skipped when the Pit is all but empty.
• Fortune's Dice can call one.
• Chat announces the arrival with its coordinates: "The Commissary has arrived in the PvP Pit ... Last hit takes it. Leaves in 15 minutes."

Breaking it open

• Only a sword or an axe counts. Right-clicking does nothing: it is locked.
• The chest starts at 60 health and every hit that counts takes 1. The label over it shows what is left.
• Swinging faster does not help past a point.
• Hitting the chest ends your arrival protection.

The guards

The chest lands with a squad of guards, some melee and some ranged. They turn on anyone who hits the chest, and a guard you hit turns on you. Several attackers split the guards between them.

The loot

• The player who lands the last hit takes the loot. Nobody else gets a share.
• For a short while only that player can pick it up.
• Chat announces that the chest was broken open and what it held.
• The chest holds PvP loot.

If nobody claims the chest in 15 minutes it is taken back.

Everything else about the Pit still applies while you fight over it: full PvP, and a death drops your inventory and locks you out for 5 minutes.
