Hear Hear, i wish i'd read this a long, long time ago but in my experience you can beat anybody if you engineer it right, anyone having trouble with pk'ing others should really try doing it this way sometime, eg, if they're exhausted they can't run, if they're hurt they die quicker if they're brain dead they die even quicker (well mages anyway, orcs and giants are permantley brain dead but still manage to kick six shades of sh) so try and pick the time and place then waste that 40ft fire giant with the Midnight dragon gear.
