AuthorRacial Skill point differences
Ok, I’m VERY confused... Can anyone explain??

I've been using the Top Hunters section for two things: First, it helps me to gauge if I can perhaps defeat an army that shows up.(Oh, I see a level 6 Necro defeated 1400+ Farmers, so I should be able to kill 1000 no problem... wrong) And second, for studying other players to see how they defeat large army's and looking for tips.

Well, I'm seeing a pattern but it's not a help. For some reason many of the players that are winning against these larger armies have WAY more racial skill points than I do so they can bring in more troops.

Here's an example:

As a level 6 Necro I have the following:
Combat level: 6 (181897) +8103
Necromancer: 4 (272.69) +7.3

Yet I see another player who has this:
Combat level: 5 (69731) +20269
Necromancer: 4 (270.41) +9.6

So as a level 5 Necro, he can bring in the same compliment that I do?? How is that??

I have always been a Necro and have a fairly decent win percentage. So how is it that I have almost 3 times the experience, yet we are almost identical in Racial Skill points?

This creates a HUGE imbalance when fighting since he is a level 5 and can face stacks as large as I can as a 6. Also, in a PvP battle he'd have the upper hand against other level 5's. When I was a level 5 I only had a Racial skill of 3 so I would have been out matched just by shear numbers.

In many of the Top Hunters I'm seeing this pattern, so it makes difficult to gauge if I can face an army. I used to think I could win just because I see a level 6 has beaten 20% more. Turns out that player who was a level 6 had a higher racial skill so he brought a lot more troops with him.

I’ve looked at battles fought and they seem to receive .5 skill in fights like I do, so how did they get so far ahead on Racial skill points?
Different combats gives different exp-fsp ratio, here's a table I got off Ethereality (forum format will probably mess it up):


--------------- exp racial racial/exp
duel win ------ 1.0 1.3 1.3
duel lose ----- 0.3 0.7 2.33
everyone 4th -- 0.3 0.5 1.67
everyone 3rd -- 0.4 0.8 2
everyone 2nd -- 0.5 1.2 2.4
everyone 1st -- 1.0 1.5 1.5

And PvE battles such as hunts and mercs gives max 0.5 fsp but up to max 500 * CLv. Generally, losing gives you better exp-fsp ratio, or easy hunts and mercs, especially monster quests. Also I don't know which necro are you referring to, before some updates long ago, assisting in hunt grant you up to 0.25 fsp but zero exp, same with losing a hunt, up to 0.49(?) fsp and zero exp.
This topic is long since last update and considered obsolete for further discussions.
