Since the new update, challenge will not count your battle record. I noticed some low level players are trying to take advantage of this new "feature" and start challenging high level players. I am level 34 and was challenged twice today, one by a level 20, and the other by a level 15! It has become a bit annoying. At least, you should not challenge anyone who is 5+ level higher than you, right?

How do they take advantage of this feature other than trolling?

spoiler:

My question demands much thought process.

I think it is quite nice.
Actually gives them a chance to see why the cap is there in real fights.
And takes away any chance of dummying, so all good stuff. :)

I think its quite fun, yet if you find it annoying just unequip your primary.

I'm not seeing the problem or how they are taking advantage of this. If it is annoying to you simply learn to ignore it. I like this that means I get to fight any of my friends regardless of level difference. And makes it so much easier to get wins doing missions because you and your friend could let each other win so both of you could complete mission and no one suffers because no one gets a loss! Now I do agree that would be a problem for dummying but I don't think it really matters since you don't get anything for challenge battles anyway and the missions don't really count as their is only a few of them.

 Good solution?
You can turn friend requests off right? Then Staff could implement in spare time option to turn off every single request (challenges, friends, ally links, etc)! :3

I think the unlimited challenge range gives players a chance to see you in action without suffering any ill effects. It's unkind to PWN level 20- players so I let them swing a few times at me to test their metal. It's amusing for me and I suppose fun for them since they usually ask for a rematch LOL. I did have a very low level challenge me and I gave him 10 free shots, that was actually more fun then it sounds. Those basic weapons are sooo cute and the players are likely 8yr olds, so the conversation is brief but its still lots of fun.

Take those battles for what they are meant to be, good sportsmanship and game advertising. Be a good ambassador of the game and be kind to lower level challenges.

Inconceivable!


 As playarn suggested, you can always take off your primary if you don't want any challenges. The ignore function was also updated a week or two ago so it blocks everything (challenges, faction invites and friend requests), so if it's just one player trying to annoy you you can always use that.

Removing the level limit from challenges was actually my idea. Challenges are now a social feature than a competitive one, so it doesn't make sense to have limits on it. A level 5 vs a level 30 might be no contest, but someone might enjoy that. They're meant to be for fun now, so why limit the fun?

Personally, I've had plenty of friends that just joined up and I'd always want to show them all the cool things they could experience, but it was hard when I couldn't battle them on my higher level characters.

It's not the highest priority, but pretty much everyone on the staff agrees that these would be good options to have. The release schedule is awfully busy, so no guarantees this is happening soon, but who knows what Titan will manage to squeeze in.

Well not my fault. Besides, it doesn't count to your record plus, if they challenge you and you know they're low level then go ahead. Even a level 3 player challenged me and died within 1 turn after using defense matrix.
