To be frank, I think Eon's skill damage is set a good bit to high. in two fights I lost 0.269 almost across the board thanks to him, an amount that I could -maybe- make up during a long day of training my crits, seeing as I don't exactly have skill with rits, nor do I use high heat amounts.
It's a good bit absurd, and while i'm not exactly complaining.. I am stating that I think, if we cannot stop him now, we should at least put in a new rule, that anyone who has won the BHC once, regardless of if they win it again, lose their skill damage at the next BHC, and do not get it back at any point in time.
That stops abuse, meaning it stops someone from winning the BHC, then intentionaly hunting everyone else to weaken them with the skill damage, so that they can win again, and thus continue their 'fun'.
Added note: Personaly I like the idea of rewarding someone for being online with stats, However it is unfai to those who cannot spend 8 hours or more a day just idling away, and it would cause complaints. However, a buffer against skill damage seems to be a good alternative.
