Definitely the lower levels. If equal, the guy who has more support.

I believe support should have a more prominent role, using 150 support as a 34 Tech Mage I was going last or third the majority of battles, which was pretty stupid due to my low health and defence/resistance, it used to be that i'd go first a lot more, particually when me and Moesha were trying out the 88 support builds that a lot of people adopted, now it feels like it has absolutely no effect.

Whenever i'm against a lower levelled player they go first, despite encumberance meaning they're even better geared than me.

in my personal opinion, level difference should play a lesse part then it does now. 1 level should be equal to 4 or 5 support.

I Support that, no pun intended ;]
I feel there are so many ingame issues that could be tweaked with very little issue, and very little debate.
I know of very few people who'd have an issue with adopting that approach to going first.

If the two players are the same lvl then the one with higher support should go first.


I also think there should be a formula to decide how much of a support advantage you need to go first if you are facing a lower level opponent.


I wouldn't begin to know the exact numbers but i think a lvl 34 running a 160 support build should always start over a lvl 30 with 26 support.


I do not nor have I ever thought first strike should be random. There needs to be a solid system in place for who starts.

OK, lets get some numbers flashing. Comparing Primary weapons of the same rank (seasonal rare), type (physical), rarity (very close), price (very close), number of enhancements (8), and 1 level difference...

I am comparing the Wraith Axe and Hammerhead Maul:

The Wraith Axe (34) has 26 stat points while the Hammerhead Maul (33) has 25 stat points. There is a stat difference of 1. Then there is the damage difference, a damage difference of 1. Since damage in Strength for example is scaled at a ratio of 4 stat points to 1 damage in the stat progressions (4 Strength ≈ 1 damage), the total stat difference between weapons of 1 level difference, it is as Basicball mentioned, 4-5. Then there is the number of allocatable stat points per level up... 4. Therefore, since there are 4 stattable equipment types (Primary, Sidearm, Auxiliary, Armour) and 1 level involved in a 1 level difference...

For each level, there would be an advantage of 25 stat points in the favour for the player of the lower level. For every 1 level lower than another player, that player has a 25 point Support advantage over the other player in terms of first-turn Support advantage.

So it would work like this:

Level 30 @ 80 Support VS Level 34 @ 120 Support

Level 30 has a 100 point Support handicap for first turn, making their first turn Support advantage 180. Therefore the level 30 starts the match.

Level 34 @ 120 Support VS Level 34 @ 150 Support

No first turn Support handicap involved, the Level 34 @ 150 Support starts the match.
