I’m not sure if i’m the only one who thinks this, or if I’m missing important details of how the scaling works properly, but I don’t find this to be normal. In the video I linked, I made sure me and the 43 had the same weapon, health, strength, and no gear to test just how much of an advantage he gains from being a lower level, and that is what came about it. I don’t post this to get bullied in the comments, or people telling me it’s completely balanced, because I honstly don’t see how it is with my current knowledge.

I 100% agree with this!! Pvp Scaling just doesn’t feel right at all!!! People who do not see how bad the current state of PVP scaling currently is are lower levels up to level 50. Every person I have spoken to that is level 55 and above who has dueled a lower level player notices how much stronger these lower lever players are no matter WHAT the build! Something needs to be changed and higher-level players should always have the advantage. In the current scaling, the higher level players have ZERO advantage!!! The only exception to this is when a lvl 55-60 duels someone that is at least 30 levels under them. In this case, they are just way too low and now the higher level has the advantage, but OTHER than that, levels 35-50 have a HUGE advantage over the level 55-60’s because of a broken PVP scaling is in place.

If you do not believe me, level up to 55-60 and duel a 45-50 and you shall see!! Compare the light attacks and the heavy attacks in a duel. Test among yourselves!!!

I have to agree, I have even done some testing and it seems like it is off, as a lvl 60 myself I have never felt weaker. I have no actual issue with PVP scaling I actually endorse it but from my testing there is a clear advantage to the lower level. I wish Amazon would provide some more clarity to the actual math behind it so I know what it is I am doing wrong or what I can do to at least compete with lower levels. If it takes them 3 shots to kill me then I expect it to take make 3 shots to kill them. I should not need to hit them 10 times when we are both classed the name way in the same armor class.
