getting people into each others ranges at 51 I remember happening. You had some really nasty human mages who were wiping the board with everyone and that arbie paladin K???
with the rager god tattoo couldnt hurt them
although they were all 51. That paladin had the best chance of taking them down and an IMM said something along the lines of that K?? would kick their butt, and I posted that he would probably if they were in the same range... which seemed to be news to the IMM that they werent. (that was ages ago and under a different name on glimos board I think).
The other bonus for being 51 is apparently pwk dosent work on you (unless done by a lich). Which if true is reason in itself cos I really hate pwk :)
