Two eleventh level warriors of the same race and of comparable stats should have equal shot at PKing each other. But if the first has been on CF in various incarnations, and "somehow" has managed to get all kinds of kick-ass gear (though knowledged gained in those previous characters), well that's not particularly equal, is it?

If anything, I hope to take down a few pegs those jerks who have been playing CF for years who get their jollies just making the game miserable for new players. You know these guys, they mostly play APs and Necros.
