Since many players seem to keep their strongest and best fighters, and those spawnings are based on the chars present in the location where the spawn occurs, I still think that statistically there is a certainty in the trend of more combat proficient spawns.
All statistics have a skew and your particular case may be an anomaly. We are looking at a mean and median here and if Joo were to show up he could explain it far better than I could. Snickie too for that matter. Those darn math people!
I play my chars regardless of their spawn statistics and consider it a challenge in the aspect of roleplaying, I think you do also Wolfsong. cheers!
For some people who have a specific fighting character in mind pre-spawn, they often do not keep the ones that are less combat proficient. I remember Seko making the comment that some spawns never speak, but you can see when you click on them that they have done the self-drag trick and are tired from it. Many of them are unworthy of feeding in the eyes of others, especially town leaders, so they live about 20 days. I see the examples often and this common practice is statistically going to change the mean statistics of the group. Now that the sample is smaller than in past years, I would think the numbers would be more pronounced even.
I compliment those who try to tackle the challenges of a weaker char, but cannot blame those who had a specific niche in mind prespawn.
I guess I would rather interact with a char whom they are enthusiastic about playing.
Anyways, its an interesting trend imo, especially since so few of these characters ever get to swing a sword in anger.
Just pillows, wasters, and toothbrushes.
Be well armed.
Like be doctor or sail or trade or what ever. I have couple terrible suckers and I don't mind it. Sure expert fighter is cool but you can still have fun with less skilled one
who is my most experienced warrior.
