for those of you seriously worried about griefers running around challenging noobs, theres always a way to compare some sort of skill count. IE: player A has a total of, lets say 350 points in x y and z skills, and player B who is just starting only has 10 points in skill w. in this case, player A would not be able to \'slap with a leather glove\' player B. whereas if player A has 400 total skill points and player B has like 390 skill points, it would be possible for player A to duel with player B.
