I know this minigame is old and somewhat unappealing but i am so tired of being paired with people 40 levels higher than me. Just pair me with someone my level and then when i get beat i will feel as though it was earned. thoughts anyone?

agreed,i played it wen i was like lvl 50 and i was pair up with like +100 so to have a chance all i had to do was run. but it should be paired around the same lvls

yeah and i mean i just plain suck but it would be nice to have a chance every now and then but i really just want mage xp

I would argue it's more technique than anything. A couple of months ago when i played it i was well in the top 500 - and there were plenty of people with much lower stats that beat me just by their techniques.

This is a bit more of a problem in P2p than it is in F2p.

 

In p2p, any 100+ with ancients will take out a low level without a sweat. In f2p you can often beat someone much higher than you simply by running around the rocks.

errghh.... i know how you feal, but in reverse! im sick of playing fog and constantly being paired with someone 40 levels lowwer then me! :wall:

love the minigame, hate the players :roll:

 

and to be of even more anoyance... when i do play someone my level thay nearly allways dont know what there doing :wall: :roll:

 

wana trade oponents? lol

ive never had that problem maybe because im 124+10 but still

 

but i can imagine it being a very unfair advantage

I'm actually tired of playing with LOWER leveled opponents.

 

Always being paired up with someone 40 levels lower than me makes me win with very little effort.

 

What matters though, is the huge penalty put on you if you leave/disconnect. You lose 40 rating just for one unexpected leave.

I'm level 100, but I do have ancients and can sometimes get a decent KO hit. So I'm often paired with people a bit higher and many much lower. I've even had people in the 40's.... :smile:

 

However, I view any level as a challenge for me to beat. If it's a very low level, then I'll just tank with pray. If they're a very high level, I'll run as long as possible and then use the rock strategy.

 

If you're within 30 combat levels of anyone and have a decent mage level, you CAN beat them. But if you know you can't, just let them kill you and get some free mage xp. You'll get a token anyway.

Yeah the matching system is really stupid. As a 138, why does it make sense to pair me with a level 50? I'm going to one hit him with dragon claws :unsure:

I'm tired of low levels wasting my time. Like when beat them with 200 charge, then when its their turn they get angry and just stand there. if I leave I get penalized.

Then kill them?

Lemme rephrase what he said.

 

Act I: squareroot2, the Hunter

- squareroot2 dominates his prey in a matter of seconds.

 

Act II: squareroot2, the Hunted

- squareroot2's foe, humiliated by the inglorious defeat, plans revenge on his nemesis by refusing to kill him and end the match. squareroot2 is left gathering tokens in the center for several minutes, with little extra reward.

OIC. Thanks brah.

I, too, am annoyed by the matching system. I'm really not interested in fighting level 50s. It's easy tokens, yeah, but I enjoy a challenge. I don't know if pairing should be based on combat level alone, though, as I've been beaten by a level 80 pure who was maxed ranged/mage and had claws + chaotic staff. He's a front page FoGer.

 

I HATE people who try to train magic on my steel titan. No matter how many times the titan kills them, they just keep coming back. I end up winning the match by getting 5k charges, which is boring. This would happen a lot less if I was paired with people my level.

 

AND FURTHERMORE, I hate people who [bleep] about me using familiars and standing in the middle of the arena. Do you want me to take my armor off, too?

I hated Jagex's smug response for the crappy matchmaking system.

 

"no no, really, a level 50 CAN take on a level 120 and win! You're just not doing it right."

well in honesty, its true.

 

but is terms of events that are more likely then 1%......

Well, in theory, it is possible. But in practicality, not quite possible.

That's the thing: They take theoretical and use it as practical.

So when you know you've beat him, stand in a house and kill yourself?

Can you explain that more? :eek:

If you stay inside a house, you lose LP every few seconds.

Ah, I always use a combat familiar, so I've never been able to try that. Thanks.

^ If they're refusing to kill you, I'd just dismiss the familiar, then suicide in the house. A steel titan is only like 4k.

More like 8k, stupid people that merch them.
