I had never noticed before (because I like to mind my own business), but you're right. Most of mine are 20-40 levels higher than I am. |

I mean... I know it's supposed to be a challenge... ... but that would be risking anialation! It's like shooting pop-guns at them. Like a bee stinging a lion... I would only aggravate them and invite certain death. My scans are barely high enough to see half of their components. What I can see is that I am outgunned by a wide margin. It's bad enough that the majority of them are dangerous, harmful or deadly

Right now all I can do are teeny missions that give me a whopping 27 XP at a time. for how much energy? its not a matter of XP output its a matter of the energy/XP ratio. if you get 27 XP for 1 energy thats a heck of alot better then a mission that gives you 200 XP for 100 energy. |

The only missions I can do while disabled are low energy ones that cost 16 or 20. |

Its how much XP do you get for each energy spent. and even if for some reason being disabled doesnt let you do missions with better energy/XP ratios, just save up energy, repair, do em before you can get disabled and get disabled. |

It's a no-win situation until I get off this asshole's radar. yes, that was sort of my point... trying to avoid becoming some annoying speck on someone's radar screen... I feel for you however, the more I level up, it seems the higher level these opponents become... like a moving target... i'm still the bottom fish. when I was lower level, at least some of the opponents were lower or a similar level. I had a chance then. |

ok heres the solution to your problems either.. A: research/get some attack/defesne modules B: research/get some cloaking It may take a few days before you can get good enough moduels to make enough of a diffrence but youll get there and then youll be fine. |

ok heres a short list of what rank does not equal... Attack Defense Cloaking Scanning Decks Crew Ship Strength Legion Organazation Affiliation Module Strength Planetary Production Artifacts Planets This is a RPG and because of that people's ships are not all outfitted the same way, because of this someone can easily be 30 ranks above you and be weaker then you. This being said ranks arnt useless but they do not equal power in any direct fashion. All in all with the current system if you focus on energy(so that you can rank up quicker) you will be behind when it comes to PVP, this is the price of specialization. Which is one of the core concepts of RPGs. IMO the guys appearing on your battle list should be based of Ship Strength instead of rank as that is a much more accurate indication of power. I also think that XP rewards from Battles should be based of Ship Strength for the same reason. |

I believe the same may apply if you are classified as a Hacker as opposed as an attacker but I am not yet certain. |
