Sorry, but I don't quite understand your question. Try giving more specifics.

You said you're a lvl 20 M/W. Is that Me/W or Mo/W?

What skills and attributes are you using? Equipment? Runes?

What do you mean by "they seem more powerful" than you? Are you dying too quickly? Having trouble killing opponents? What strategy are you using that's giving you problems?

Henchies?

We need more details before we can really give you any good advice.

1. MAke a decent build.

2. Play better.

But seriously, the random arena is weighted towards warriors and rangers. Bring stuff that shuts down warriors and rangers and watch your usefulness there increase. Also, do the two 15 point attribute quests if you havent. A surprising lot of people havent done them, which is bad. Thats like being two levels lower than everyone else.

Do you have 60AL armor? Every now and then I run into a level 20 character with subpar armor, and it really shows...

Seriously, I'd recommend making a PvP Only character. You can easily get the best gear, runes, and skills that way. And you can delete and remake it constantly to try new combinations.

I just use my RP character to unlock stuff. PvP Only all the way.

Pvp is a different ball game than pve. Your pve performance doesn't necessarily reflect your pvp abilities. If you're using a pve build, then you will do poorly in the arenas. You're probably used to letting the henchies tank while you sit in the back, but in the arenas, monks get targetted first.

Practice and experience, as well as experimentation with different builds that work will make you better.
