> You seem to be ignoring how PK ranges work.

> Sure, as you gain levels, you will become more powerful. This is why PK ranges exist. So let's say you are a level 20 fire giant, and getting whooped by level 25 human conjurers. So you rank up to 25, think "Hah! I've got those guys now!"

> Except, now a level 30 conjurer, with even nastier elementals, is in your PK range.

> Powerleveling is not going to get you an advantage, since conjurers get stronger all the way to hero. Powerleveling -is- a good idea to get around classes that hit their peak at a certain level.... thieves are mighty nasty around level 30, but once you've ranked to 40, you don't see so many. Ditto with warriors in their 20's.

> But leveling up to avoid conjurers? Bad advice.

> > To put it in some sort of logical terms... What happens if you show up Naked at rank 10 in the Emerald Forest and try to kill a dryad? You die pretty quickly. What happens if you show up Naked at rank 30 in the Emerald Forest and try to kill a dryad? ...my point exactly. To combat the effectiveness of Conjurer Pets, get some levels.
