On this page a description is given to clarify how to compare and judge a player's abilities in combat compared to another player and compared to a NPC Foe (attackable create).
==Player level==
A player's power effectiveness in combat is derived from several sources:
* the two types of combat-abilities she has chosen to fight with (and thus the two types of weapons she should have equiped). (e.g. Sword, staff, unarmed, shield, archery, psychology, etc)
* the skill the player had acquired in those two combat-types. <br>Hint: For a newer player it can be good to find a playstyle you like, regarding the weapons you use. And once you do that, to stick with those. A high skill level in your chosen weapon-type makes a big difference !
: - the buffs to Armor, Health and Power that those armor-items give
: - the buffs that the armor items give to certain combat abilities. (e.g. "Finishing Blow deals +32% damage")
'''Possible [[Buffs]] on a player:''': - Food Buff: - Potion Buffs: - Performance Buffs (Listening to music): - Statue Buffs: - Meditation Buffs & Combos: - Calligraphy Buffs & Combos '''The basic player statistics are shown in:'''

==NPC Foe level==
One of the best indication of a NPC's power and abilities is to look at the little window that displays your current targets statistics.
Below are some examples from the [[Serbule]] starter region:
[[File:chicken power level.jpg]]
<br> You'll notice that a chicken has vitually no power
[[File:tutorial skeleton power level.jpg]]
<br> a skeleton in the tutorial cave has little power
[[File:tiger power level.jpg]]
<br> For a new player, (low skills and not very good gear), it is best to try to deal with tigers one by one. Multiple tigers will kill you ...
[[File:Squeaky power level.jpg]]
<br> Mr Squeaky is one of the 'mini-bosses' in Serbule. Note the extra jump in statistics
<br>
[[File:Psychic Mantis power level.jpg]]
<br> For the Psychic Mantis statistics, please note the in-effectiveness of 'slashing damage' to them. A player specialised in [[Sword]]s (that deal slashing damage) can have a tough time against these.
== Indication of level in the Wiki ==
Generally when a recommended level is indicated in the wiki, it refers to the recommended skill level in the players primary combat type (sword, archery, staff, psychology, etc).
