It's not the risk that I'm worried about. Will I get pulped by attacking an RPC? Most likely. But damn me if I have to just sit around and watch people beat me to a pulp without retaliating Edit: Bad grammar! Should have been "have to" instead of "can". Whoops

What's with all the whining about being attacked? I hardly see why it's such a big deal. If you lose, say, a 100 win ritual, how is being attacked by an RPC any different from losing to a regular player? From my perspective, being attacked is just part of the game, and adds to its unpredictability. Can you be killed in story mode? Yes. Similarly, you can be attacked, and should be prepared for that. So you lose a 100 win ritual. Big whoop. I've lost tons of rituals by just fighting. It's foolish to turn away from a $40 dollar investment just because you've lost some temporary benefit. The ONE thing that bugs me about this system is that I can't attack back. Come on. Give me a crack at those darned RPCs ;(
