I was asked twice today, randomly, about the PvP exercises that I came up with when I ran them for Blackmarsh and Legion. So I'll post them here. These exercises are designed to strengthen a group's teamwork. These help a guild work together far better than just dueling around.

Endurance Test
Purpose: The purpose of this exercise is to test and improve a small team's (we used 2 people at a time) ability to work against overwhelming odds.
How: Line everyone up and pick a team of two to run the Endurance Test. Then, pick a team of two to face them. Every 30 seconds, call someone from the line to enter battle and join the team fighting against the two who were initially selected. The original two must try to defeat their opponents swiftly, less they become overwhelmed.

Assassin
Purpose: To teach everyone, simultaneously, how to handle themselves in a 2 on 1 situation.
How: Hand everyone a book with a list of names. The person above you is the person who will be attacking you, and the person below you will be the one you are attacking. You cannot attack the person attacking you unless you are the only two left. If you kill the person below you on the list, move on to the person below that person. If your name is at the bottom of the list, your target is the name at the top of the list.

Selfless Healing
Purpose: To teach everyone how to crossheal.
How: Pair everyone up in 2v2's. Be mindful of good group synergy. Have them fight. The only rule here is that if your partner is alive, you CANNOT heal yourself. Curing yourself is fine, but you absolutely cannot do any self heals. You must rely on your partner to keep you healed.

And don't forget the unspoken rule: every Training Night ends in a free for all!
