Bad Luck or Par for the Course?

JS Hitmen Trucking Inc -CI- Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Members Posts: 3,238 Joined: Jan 9, 2010 I have two scouts that capped at 73 and 74 repsectively. They are my first caps. I believe both were "bought". Is this standard for characters you pay for? I bought a lot of guys at first, and I am now worried that I have spent a lot of time on guys that will all cap low. I have no idea if I have any originals left, plenty have died, so there's no telling. Is this pretty standard for bought characters or am I just having a bit of bad luck with these two? My sample size is small here, but it's not looking too good with the anecdotal evidence I have so far. ......................... vet wv pvp5 pvp3 pvp4 Posted Feb 22, 2010, 10:21 pm Last edited Feb 22, 2010, 10:23 pm by JS

Some of your bought characters may not cap until they're in the 200's. ......................... wv vet zom marshal pvp2 paintladder Posted Feb 22, 2010, 10:25 pm Last edited Feb 22, 2010, 10:25 pm by *Burden*

Anyone know if the characters attributes play into it? ......................... vet wv pvp5 pvp3 pvp4 Posted Feb 22, 2010, 11:41 pm

A quick look at my gang page will show many over 100 in at least one skill. I've had three characters cap in the mid-90's and one of them was recruited using 'Best Available Character' and was free. As mentioned above, the chance of a low cap is higher for bought characters, but I think you got unlucky twice in a row ......................... vet combatL1 wv cont0,5,0 Posted Feb 23, 2010, 12:34 am

*Zothen* Knights Templar Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 841 Joined: Jun 11, 2007 Theres no proof for that and I cant remember that paying for member is more penalized than paying for them. Also Ive never heard Sam mentioning something like this... maybe we should ask him? Early capping chars are still my personal feud with DW, cos I had a bunch of urgently needed scouts that capped shortly after 100 (one after the next one) which took me already many, many months to grind up and forced me to stick to somerset for another 6 months. Very great... ......................... vet marshal wv Posted Feb 23, 2010, 12:58 am Last edited Feb 23, 2010, 1:11 am by *Zothen*

Out of 56 characters I also have 5 between 150-200 that are not capped. I have only ever had one character ever break 200. ......................... vet combatL1 wv1,0,0 Posted Feb 23, 2010, 4:11 am

I keep track of which ones are frees, but I have only been doing that recently and so far none of those have c[r]apped out. But I don't play as often as many people, so it might be a bit. ......................... vet combatL1 wv1,0,0 Posted Feb 24, 2010, 5:52 pm Last edited Feb 24, 2010, 5:53 pm by 4saken
