Nobody used any armor or weapons, and to do so would simple be a waste of time against any decent mage. Please don't tell me that's what I have to look forward to .
Bows...elven bows are lethal in mass combat. They are fast and make decent damage, if you are somewhat lucky with an elven bow it has about the same damage output as an FS and you barely have to stand still to shoot with it. Ganking is normally a naked "sport", cause you die often enough that it would be very expensive using armor all the time, and frankly, it's a ***** to suit up. If you fight a group of naked guys though, suiting up in a decent armor (>= plate) and using a bow will work in your advantage.
Non ganking combat will most likely be done in good armors and good weapons, as it will happed while you are hunting or something similar.
Tournaments...well, theres nothing to say about that
Everyone suits up in their best gear and fight for the win. There IS a chance that someone really really good(dumidum xddddd) can beat a less experienced guy naked vs armor if he has a decent weapon, but there might be like 1-2 people that can do that on the server, and they will not always succeed.
Most combat WILL be armor combat, most definitely, but ganking I'd say be done naked 50%+ of the time.
