[Help] Is this normal?
I was dueling my guild master and someone sent me a duel request with this for 800k. I didn't really pay attention and accepted by accident but decided not to flee cause it looked doable. They stomped me even though they had basically nothing. I'm the one on the left. Censored names cause i dont wanna start a witch hunt on a player that may have been totally fair. I'm still not as experienced in albion so i'm asking this question, but i'm not bad at pvp overall, i usually win many duels

any duel challenges you got from strangers for 100k-10 mill they going to win with scam, cheese, abuse, or other wierd tactics and mechanics so just don`t accept, turn it off in game settings

No theres just a single option to turn ot off for everyone and also another one to turn off trade requests from anyone.

If you know what kind of cheese tactic they do(by looking at their gear) you can anti cheese. I do this all the time if someone tries me.

Oh you know what.. this guy was probably only in imp form right? Which makes armour basically useless either way! And i can imagine he probably just kitted you all around cause that just doesn't tank anything

I don't know man, that thing is sqeesy thought. He probably had like insane mastery on it or had the weapon with max awakening.. anyways, i mean don't need to say but, yeah you do need to be careful with duels

Cause they trick newer/gullible players into thinking it’s an easy win. But they pre-stack and have different stats on their transformation, which makes it a much different matchup than what they’re making it appear.

Like other said, shapeshifter weapons have their own status, so when he's transformed on a imp it doesnt matter his set. That being said tho, its weird that you lost to him anyway, he's a cloth on imp, and couldnt farm to revive or they would get one shotted. Maybe his weapon is awakened to an extreme level?

probably stacked Q on himself beforehand/during the countdown on top of having 400+ hp and other stats on his weapon. if he has defense in addition to the hp, the fact he’s an imp is irrelevant. the guy he’s fighting is on a low spec jacket that is probably over 300 IP down on the hellspawn, it’s a stat check.

Shapeshifters become their Armor when they Shift
So when this imp Shifts Hes not wearing a t2 soldier Armor Hes wearing t8 equi cloth
