> 1) Ignore anyone breaking the law to kill or steal from ragers. Make it so that ragers cannot hide within towns if they need to rest, and as well, any Arbiter may attack them in towns. If, however, ragers attack in towns, they get flagged.

That is how things are working right now. If a rager gets attacked the arbiter looks the other way. But their official position is still we protect everyone. Yeah Right!

> 2) Balance Arbiter powers to equal rager powers. Currently, a prepared Arbiter has a very bad chance against 3-4 ragers (which is generally what they end up attacking Arbiters in (they're at war, they can bullshit it that way). Therefore, make it so that an Arbiter can stand toe-to-toe with better guards, or something other than a shield, maybe, that gave them +hit/dam/hp/whatever to thwart the Battleragers.

Arbiters have plenty of power. They just don't take advantage of it. You can spell up your special guards. Have a healer tag along and heal them and junk like that. They can use their ranks to their advantage. The guards can attack who ever is wanted without putting the arbiter in danger. Sure you may not kill a hero rager with lowbie guards. But that also means they can't kill you, but you get to annoy the hell out of them with manacles and special guards all the time.

> I've played both sides, and I can say in all certainty, Arbiters are the ones that get shafted time and time again by this war. So, things should be balanced. Arbiters should not be fighting the 'greatest warriors in the world' with nothing but their class powers, as Battleragers, by virtue of BEING battleragers, get much more.

Ragers are the one that get shafted. Espeically non hero ragers. After having to gain all their experience back they get flagged for defending their cabal and have to do it all over again. In fustration most non hero ragers delete after 200k holes.

Arbiters are plenty powerful.
