Keen observers will note that some of the Arenas are located in areas that are normally under the Trammel ruleset in modern UO. Indeed, some Arenas are actually technically located in Trammel itself. However, on Oceania Classic there is no Trammel ruleset and these locations that are physically located on the maps of the Trammel Facets are actually all under the Britannia/Felucca ruleset, meaning players may be freely attacked by others. The Trammel map is being used in this way to provide a second "instance" of these locations. Players are unable to leave these isolated/locked off areas and get into the rest of Trammel (which is completely empty anyway).
