I don't know if I'm allowed to mention who it is but he's not hard to find bouncing around between rank 250 and 300 with no stats. He's 80 odd ranks BETTER than me and I cannot raid him because of the 'too distant to engage/47.7%' thingy.

Now I can (with great difficulty) understand why there needs to be a limit to raiding but this is utterly ridiculous.

Sell your strike down to just one weapon and then hit him.

Good advice there, its a pain but true the rank mod is a strike mod.

That right there was a very very bad idea. :lol:

Before the turn change: 20:47 Vinny D Destroy Destruction 15 6000 1860 670,755,763,840 *30,401,239,040 details

After the turn change: 20:50 Vinny D Destroy Destruction 15 2692 4100 291,464,173,900 *24,647,284,367 details

See what happens is that when I attacked the first time, I just built up a really tiny strike with just whatever DMU I had on hand(not much really, less than a fourth of a turn of income). At that point my strike was ranked 3,515 and I was getting 130% to strike. At the turn update my strike updated to rank 16. The rank mod changed to 65.87%. I even repaired my weapons to make sure that the weapon statistics didn't change our variable. So as you can see, it is stat rank based.

I thought about using 1 turns instead of a full 15, but I decided against it. :P I was in a mean mood. :-D
