I'm running into serious issues with this thing, now that Phoenix has explained it to me a little better, I'm seeing that this is where the issue seems to be. It's causing 'monster' attacks (Including in PVP) that easily equal a player's Power moves, but it does it far more often than power moves ever occour. At least every 10-12 rounds.

Example today: in a pvp I'm 34/36 with 204 HP. I go up against a farmboy who's max is 30/30. 152 HP. When I have a 10 point advantage in stats, and +52 HP. I shouldn't see regular attacks out of my enemy for 40+ damage, but that's exactly what I get. Coupled with the rediculous amount and strength of repostes, I need 2-3 power moves just so stay on equal ground.

A better fighter should be a better fighter, and increased stats should mean something. It's unfair to have that taken away from us when we've worked as hard as we have to earn those stats and our rank.

This problem seems to multiply badly in the graveyard. It's become close to impossible for me to resurrect, where I either have to run, or lose becuase I can't afford the cost of running from every other fight. In two deaths during this DK, I've managed a total of 29 favour because of the rediculous damage I'm taking.

im not too sure how the battle works, but it seems to me that the more exp the player got, the more likely they will do more dmg and increase in attack rating.

ive battled farmcreatures who have been online for 80+ days and they are near impossible to beat.

kether has a point that the title you earn should reflect how powerful the player is, but unfortunalty that is not always the case

Kether is in a high rank, and he's King now where things changes according my own experience.

I remember that between Mayor and Prince (9-15 DK) things got really hard to me when trying to resurrect, and even in PvP against deep lower players. But from King and up I'm nearly invencible, or just very lucky in my fights. I thought it was a matter of code evolution 'cause we're still in Beta stage, but it seems that things remains. Also, I'm running in tester mode (Eye cathing Pavillion set to ON), that maybe means a big difference. I haven't see the code deeply as to predict the cause of what Kether said anyway.

Please note that I've a phoenix too, like Kether. I guess is a thing of Kether's bad luck, plus not-so-right decisions after dragon kills (I can't say anymore in order to keep hidden certain things.)

Actually, Feah, I know exactly what choices to make after a DK, and it's allright to discuss secrets in these forums, as I hear it from MightyE. I have only ever taken attack and defense bonuses, the issue is in a newer random number generation system, for certian. MightyE is running simulations to see if he's getting the results he expected: But it's been my experience that the gaussian generator he's using now works against the players a little too well, and a lot more often than it works for us.
