I used to cross my fingers when fighting someone a few levels above me...now I dread attacking someone levels below me that I know are way stronger than because this 'randomness' is happening too frequently. And its not even a matter of barely losing....there are times where I am getting absolutely destroyed by people I know I am stronger than.

But even so...admin ignoring the issue isn't helping much.

I believe this issue is caused by people choosing weapon skills and other people aren't.

Skills give quite a lot of power, nearly too much. It should be hit with a nerf stick in the increased of damage and hit percent.

on the other hand defensive skills was added to balance that out

Anyone who tries that out will find out that it's complete bullocks.

You have to train 3 skills to negate 1 weapon level. With weapon levels being nearly 5 levels in the lead on quite a lot of people. With the added downside that it has no effect on those that doesn't have weapon skills. And the weapon skills effects the combat versus everyone.

The one doing the defence race is sure to lose out in the end. Make it count towards those that doesn't have weapon skills as well and there is a benefactor in getting either the evade skill to the max or the resist skill.

The last downside is versus non-weapon skillsmen, since the skills count towards power level, so you even decrease the amount of XP you get, with no added bonus in defence.

Terribly sorry about the thread highjack. I can split the topic into a new one if the OP (original poster) mails me ingame.
