Well, picking a fight with a clan that has an average level almost 10 above ours might not have been the way to go for our first fight.

Their main tactic is bringing along a lower level character with 2 to 4 higher level ones. The high ones lock you down while the low guy gets the kill and thus the credit.

Not much you can do to combat it unless our 2 or 3 high level players are around to help.

I will say that they are also good at showing up at the wrong place at the wrong time. We got hit by one guy during a base attack and he just wrecked us until we were able to get organized. Was VERY hard to track him in the middle of 50 or so Banes with weapon effects flying everywhere. Was a good move on his part.

People have to keep in mind that even though this game has numerous FPS elements, it still really comes down to levels and numbers in PvP. You can be the better player, but it will be rare that you can overcome a 3 to 5 level difference regardless of your skill. You can beat the number odds when you have somewhat even levels...but when they are 2+ levels higher than you....not going to happen very often.

So keep your eyes open and roll with a group whenever possible.
