Surely you haven't overlooked that the old system enabled people willing to replay until they got an easy wand set a significant advantage?

Better that that isn't an option, especially given that ranking up repeatedly is much easier for those abusing ooc connections.

Also barrier on necros and aps gives risk free chances to pk almost anyone. It's not a right to have it 24-7. Learn to compete without it.

Having said that, I wouldn't mind seeing cabals give dam redux of 5 percent for each excess raider (relative to number of defenders) so that defenders facing a massive gank have more free redux and a chance of survival.
