Shattered Kingdoms

Not necessarily true. I found out yesterday that one of the people that's been holding a PAR slot for QUITE some time now is on their first character. I was shocked as I would have never guessed that they had just started playing. Same for when I was in the Fist. I found out one of my good friends had JUST started playing and was in a pretty sweet cabal. Perhaps ever-so slightly naive, but none the less I didn't get into my first cabal until a few years into playing. I don't think you can really set in stone who could be a good PKer or Rper. When I was in the harlies I got ganked by some of the best PKers in the game, however they couldn't RP for [REDACTED]. The point is you never really know.

There are always exceptions. What i said was a general trend i have observed. As for the example of the first char holding paragon, sometimes it can be relatively easy if the class is underplayed at the moment by more experienced chars.
