    I have reached the 1400s :D! But how in the world am I now in a bracket with players triple my level? :confused:

    If the higher level players have leveled fast and find themselves with no one to play with, that is no fault of mine. And to be served up as fodder for bored players isnt exactly my idea of fun.

    How is this good for the game?

    Separate the brackets please. It might slow the top players up, allowing us not so mercurial players a chance to breathe a bit. Level separation happens in games. Not one dev I know has made an attempt to slow down top tiers....it becomes easier for them to make spreads larger in fact. Then the honeymoon is over, players lose interest, and game crashes.

    Any chance a dev could shed some light on this?

    I've asked about this before. I was told that the range of people who can attack you (excluding Whips and Bounties) is at most +10% of your level. You are allowed to attack players up to -10% of your level.
    So if I'm at level 1300, I can attack a level 1170 player, but not a level 1169 player. And level 1430s can attack me, but not 1431s.
    That's what's SUPPOSED to happen. But I was getting attacked by level 1800s and up. I never attacked them.

    You are always given the opportunity to attack people over your level. Always. A level 2 can attack a Level 2000 if he so desires. The other way round does only work if the Level 2 attacked the Level 2000 in the last 24 hours in any way. (Bounty/Pistol Whip/Attack/Cage Match/Counters)

    And once you reach a certain level in Pirate Clan / Viking Clan / Zombie Slayer / Mob Wars, you will find people way out of your league available for attack. Simply because there are not so many people not in your clan, healed and in Level range available any more. So you are given the opportunity to attack higher players at your own risk.

    On PC/VC/ZS I find possible rivals who are up to Leaderboard players. Simply because most people around my level are clan, and you are always allowed to attack higher players, while higher players can only retaliate against lower players.

    But sometimes you get a MUCH higher-leveled player attacking you without you doing anything. I know you can slap (and bounty in most cases) any player, but ATTACKING can only be done if the lower level did something first.
