I was level 48, and took down a level 50 Arena Champion. The key, with all of that intimate/boast/using wild swing and taunt to get ho's off is.. Moving around. Don't stand there and wait for him to hit you. Straight up he'll tear you apart. Oh well, he did with me. I moved around some, like I was dueling in EQ1. Less hits on me, more time for me to get my self heal back up, and to boast him. And don't forget, when you boast him, throw things at him.
