I wholeheartedly agree Rook - and while you are at it, remove constitution. THe balance of an ascended battle is too far in the side of the defender.
The defender has:
absorbtion power
absorbtion skill
repulsion
constitution
By spending just over 127mil lf in each stat, they can be brought to lvl 200, giving a total of 35% reduction in the attackers capacity.
I have about 1.6bil total LF/reserves, but someone would need at least 840mil ascended being damage to even get to the 1/3 cap due to my 4 defense levels (which are all mediocre at best). I'm sure there are people out there with that much, but not too many i would think.
The 1/3 max cap means that people dont have to invest in the above defensive stats. I remember PSICOLIX (spelling?) mentioning somewhere that it would take 2-3 years to exhaust his cache just through refilling reserves/LF due to not upgrading his max LF. So long as he was able to login once every 9 hours it could not happen.
To make everything completely fair, in addition to max lf, have two stats for attacking (force and skill) and two for defending (absorbtion power/skill), and get rid of repulsion and constitution.
