Comparing battle stats

Hi,
I am getting some questions with level holding.
Obviously I would like to get more health by levelling up, but I do not want to be a high-level-low-stats target. Is there any reference information like, ‘’what XX level, you should have around XXX battle stats’’ etc?
Any general advice on the matter would also be great too.
Thanks in advance

There really isn't anything specific, it's ultimately the player's choice. I do recommend having your stat rank better/lower than your level rank {Under Hall of Fame if you weren't already aware). Whatever you feel comfortable with. This is an old post of mine, but how I ran it for myself:

Leveling is so helpful with the extra HP (and merits!), that I personally don't recommend level holding at a smaller level. One lucky crit and it's all over. With all that in mind, I totally suggest doing 10/10 in HP if you've not already.

The only plus side on lvl holding is, that you are worth less Respect upon defeat since Base R depends on the lvl. (Respect = Base R * multiplier | see Respect Guide)
So lvl holding is only interesting for Ranked Wars, where Respect Leads are important.

Otherwise it's better to not hold your lvl in my opinion.

The general idea is that your level and battle stat should match.... so if you are rank 7000 in battle stats, you should level up until you are about rank 7000 in level.


Nore: While it doesnt apply to you, this breaks down below level 15....you should get to 15 asap.

all i can say is you will be used as chain target if you are 125m at lvl 75 haha.
Personal experience XD

Conventional advice above is all true.

Although, nowadays with the smurf bonus, there is something to be said about a level 15 level holder with a 2% or 3% smurf weapon.

Got that main concept, thanks!

In thr Ranks page conpare your battle stats rank with your level rank. The further behind your battle stats rank is from your level rank, the more of an easy target you are for your level.

Currently it's a bad idea to go for level 100 under a bare minimum 2b total stats, but 4b+ would be hella more comfortable.

It's really up to you. As far as having your battle stat rank higher than your level rank, this means you're strong for your level and have more potential for being under estimated/ getting, defends, stalemates or enemy runaways.
