Idea here would be to blend a different number of player stats and call it PKer score. Would use this for rankings instead of KD.

Total score would be 5. A potential score could be 3.9/5.

Score would be calculated by combining a blend of:
1. Total kills / deaths
2. Cast on point vs cast too early
3. Catch fail vs catch success
4. Total skulled kills vs non-skulled (measure of skill vs other pkers instead of skillets or trainers)

These are just some initial ideas. I'm sure the more experienced guys can improve upon.

I do agree it would be sick, but there is a lot of flaws in the system...
1- People will still, always, never stop fucking stats by killing themselves/friends/etc.
2- Cast on point vs too early: it currently applies to all spells (high alch, PvE, etc) which doesn't exactly lead to a PKer score.
3- Catch is considered fail if someone else catch your target, or if you get attacked first (without having the chance to catch your target that you woulda had otherwise). Or if you run from someone with the legit purpose of running from him and getting caught.
4- See point #1...

-1 just delete KD

The problem with  3. is there is no way to measure catch fail/ success is it a fail if someone runs off and I don't want to chase them etc?

skulled kills are often the easiest kills in the game since lvl 3s and scouts taking obe or entering fort etc are all skulled

I've never seen a point in having if at all. It is never right and it gives people ego trips. I would make of only on skulled players and only if they were within so many levels under you or above you. All on all screw kd

Remove the KD. Remove PK highscore killcount too. Let the number of kills be between the pker and mad zeonk.

Pker rankings is a great idea but very hard to come up with something that would actually reflect the skill level of a pker.

I think you are missing the point. Inf act people are saying they want something better than K/D since its meaningless. Good idea bu hard to come up with something valid.

Do you currently get Kills for killing unskulled players?
