Fighters should be fun...

[Spear]

@ Drake: Retreat is always an option in a fighter in my experience. I would claim to be skilled in a fighter. Anything larger and I am awful.

@ X-Lancer: Retreating is a skill, particulary against multiple opponents who know what they are doing.

It is my pleasure to train alot of new players that come on the server, some learn faster than others. Mess with the balance and you are going to have alot of frustrated learners constantly getting their ass handed to them even quicker than they already do. Thats not fair on them is it?

I fought a guy 3 times last night from another server who had been playing for 2 years and told me he was one of the best on the server. Each fight lasted no longer than 5 mins and he told me who could not remember the last time he had lost so badly. Thats against someone experienced with their controls. I dont want to be killing people so quickly they become annoyed and frustrated.

Yes some fights do go on far too long but take that as either..

A) You are evenly matched.
B) One or both of you are laggy.
C) You took the wrong load-out to the wrong battle.
D) One of the players is simply dodging and not actually trying to fight, a player who does this properly can survive almost indefinatley and is annoying as hell (I dodge and evade when I am outnumbered badly but I still try to work an attack angle to strike my weakest opponent).

Obviously this is just my opinion, not an attack on others views. As I said we are playing with fire here, a fire that could badly burn a mod we all love.
