And now tell me what those 2 levels would change?
If this would be implemented sooner or later one guy will appear and say: "Make teh levelcap on 26!" and so on..

I have PER 1 too, but with some testing I noticed that with Eye damage your chance of hit are lowered anyway...

I think level 21 is fine for now. Level 23 is pointless because you won't get a perk. With level 24, both people will no traits and Skilled trait will get another Perk option. Those level 24 perks on wiki seem a little overpowered, but besides that Level 24 is the highest I think it should ever go.

Dude, if the Cap was any higher it'd be CRAZY,
Take this for EG,
*Some level 51 Walks into Modoc*
*800HP*
*HE Pulls out a Mingun and Pwns everyone since they have all less than 100HP*

Get it?

now when i think about it the slayer and sniper really shoul d be reworked into something less powered, maybe if you have the sniper perk then you don't need the extra action point for head/groin shots (eyeshots should still take that extra action point), slayer however might allow the wielder to boost his/her melee weapon/unarmed range by 2 hexes, that practically changes the perks to something useful, but not overpowered.

I think it would be logical if sniper/slayer added some extra crippling chance if a successful aimed critical hit was scored. It could work as one extra luckroll applied to every critical hit and when successful then it would cause an injury, no matter the previous critical random roll -  just a quick thought. But, well - many ideas can work here, it's up to imagination.

Why you dont like level cup at 21? From what reason? My premise is, that if you are making any change, it must be because of some specific reason (bug, balancing,...).

 Maybe, if we can recognize reason, we can change problem itself.
The problem is that developing a character is a crucial part of the game and when this option is disabled, people start to pointlessly kill each other NOT because they are real jerks, but because they have nothing else to do.

Throwing some more content into the game may partially solve that issue, but keep in mind that every (even well designed) repeatable quest will get boring and pointless after 2 – 3  completions if it doesn’t result in any measurable progress of your character.

Opportunity to advance is what makes a typical player stick to this game. When it ends – the game becomes a shooter; you choose one from your 15 max-level fighters and enter the arena – I believe that it’s not what this game is meant to be.

For me, is level cup at 21 ok, because there will be bigger changes between nolifers and normal players and also because of current perk system (non tree perk system), chars will be almost the same like others.

Well, it’s the character build system that requires a substantial overhaul imo so it suits a MMO better. Setting a level capacity so low, devs just went an easy way.

Simple suggestion:
Freeze XP gain by FA/outdoorsman/stealing/killing/(shoveling shit? ^_^)/crafting/and other means.
But enable XP gain from .... quests! After game will be more out of Beta, and there will be repeatable quests, so will do special tasks and level up!
I mean 500 XP quests!
So you'll need to do it 24/7 and may be in few monthes you'll be 22nd.
