If There Was a Fixed LPC Combat Cap;

Some strange replies in this topic haha.

 

Combat caps? At this stage? It makes absolutely no sense and is counter intuitive. The scene is far beyond the point of needing combat caps, why the hell are these clan leaders choosing to keep them?

 

Initially, with the three organised 'LPC' waves the combat caps were put in place for 3 reasons

1. Keep all ~10 clans in the scene on an even footing with a -65 combat cap which meant all 10 clans could compete with each other at similar level ranges.
2. Remain low enough level so that other predatory clans couldn't crash/interrupt the LPC scenes fights.
3. 65 combat and below is an achievable goal for new members of the community and/or returning players to catch up to.

The level cap was in place to promote competition amongst all 10 clans equally rather than a single clan becoming really dominant in a short amount of time and obliterating everyone else, with the beneficial side effect of staying out of HPC clans way (65 combat is way too low for a HPC crash to be effective).

 

People are talking about 85 combat caps? 83? 87? There is zero reason or benefits for any sort of combat cap after level 70, and its needlessly stunting your clans growth. Remove them all together, stay in the 'B League' Pking times by all means but having a combat cap is useless, especially when theirs stuff like 'exceptions' in preps. If combat caps are removed, you will still be able to attack your competition in the wilderness at virtually any wildy level.

 

Why would they possibly be needed now that the scene is established and active? The only reason they were ever implemented are for the three reasons above, prior to EOC and for the 7~ years before that 'combat caps' weren't a common thing, and I struggle to understand why they've become such a prominent thing now that there are no more LPC's around.

LPC = lvl 40-65

 

MPC = lvl 65-85

 

HPC = lvl 85-105

Literally it should be maxed 60 attack 1 def. 83- 
No need for maxed out kids in mith and ags

79-. The cb caps will never be a permanent thing because their are "exceptions" for preps. The only purpose these combat caps even serve now is to keep hpc kids from getting mass invited at preps.

Agreed @@Ivp The only way clans will move up is together and currently the leaders are stubborn and wont even consider it.

[rocketpower]

the real question should be what def level should be the cap =13.

rest should go bandwagon to the hpcs

[tribal]

Now adays i would day an LPC is anything under 83 and an HPC is anything above 83 no such thing as MPC anymore

the real question should be what def level should be the cap =13.
