What are your opinions about Soul Wars? I have not played it personally, but I hear it is good and bad both? Pros? Cons? Suggestions you would make to make it better perhaps?

Basically your divided into 2 teams.
Each team has a huge avitar creature.
There are pyrefiends & jellies around the obelisk. You kill them & take their soul gems ( or other players & take the ones they've collected ).
When your team captures the obelisk ( has lots more players surrounding it than the other team ) you can start using your gems on the obelisk.
As you use gems on the obelisk it lowers the slayer level required to attack the enemy avitar.
Killing the enemy avitar earns your team 1 point.
The team with the most points at the end ot the 20 minute game earns 3 ( I forget what they're called ) credits.
The losing team earns 1.
The credits are later used to buy rewards. These rewards are mostly charms or the ability to bring a head ( obtained from a slayer creature ) back to life as a pet.
The game has a full walk through to explain everything.

I think that soul wars is minigame just for fun.
You would have to play for hours to get a few charms,
even if you win everytime.
It doesn't really matter how big slayer level you have,
because it is too hard to regain "slayer defense" for avatar.
Crawling hands for lower levelled players are nice,
but abbysal demon for 85 points is too hard to get.
(and you can get like 100k slayer xp instead)
I am a bit dissapointed because there isn't big diferrence
between soul wars and castle wars,
just killing weaker players so they won't annoy you.

i only tried this on the day of its release.
i think i last about 10 mins before i got pee'd off, as they was so many people there and noobs spamming, so i cant really comment on the game. however the rewards are excellent. its nice to see another way to get charms without having to kill monsters.
currently im f2p so havnt been able to try it out again without all the idiots spoiling the game, maybe when ive got some free time for a week il become a mem and have ago at it again.
