    Should This Guy Be Able To Beat Me?

    My def is 125k and his attack is 87k, Doesn't seem like his attack is high enough to be able to rob me successfully, much less win attacks on me

    I know that he'd be able to rob you successfully, but I don't think an attack should win.

    125/87 = 1.437, or 43.7% stronger defense than his attack. He can rob you, but can't win a fight. 30% is a safe margin for fights, and I'm not sure where the rob threshold is, but it's at least 50%.

    You most certainly can if you don't find failing a few robs in between.

    Yes u can, some might fail but I win robberies against people with 130k def with 110k attack.
    The more defense buildings the opponent has the more successful ur robberies will be...

    Actually its the other way around, the more defence buildings they have the less successful your robberies will be.

    Hes prolly tried one counter-attack and then posted this.
    I've robbed people up to 167% of my total Atk but the higher you go the more losses you will incure. Attacking wise even if your 10% above or below the person your attacking it can still be 50/50 depending on alot of other factors.
    As bigmoney has said a good marker is 125%-130% if you want to maximize not getting any losses and if you want a gaurantee 100% win then get double their defence.

    At least 30% higher. I lose 25% all the time. I've even lost 31.7% once, but I generally regard over 30% as safe.

    I read somewhere there is an unexplained factor into the stats/chance of winning/loosing. The attack/defense skill points add into the equations but Gree will not release the formula. That sort of explains the 30% margin of safety people account for to make sure they win fights.

    That depends if they are mid to high level the actual defense is lower which I have found to result in more wins

    He can easily rob you and with a decent success rate.

    Saying i have 100k higher than the defence of the person means nothing if you dont include a % of what your own atk is.
    If someone had 1 mil and you had 900k atk its easily near 100% sucessful rob whereas 200atk over 300 is heavily in favour of the person you're robbing. Prolly get in 1 in every 2nd or 3rd rob.
