Useful Tips – Solo
- Use throwing axes while chasing people (bring lots).
- If a ranger has you at range or might have traps, just leave. break doors cross map.
- Sit in zone to keep hp up while waiting for statics to open or when held out by rangers.
- If someone gets ranged hits on you before you engage in melee, don’t engage. Flee. You need your hp to win fights.
Zwei
- ‘Pre-swing’ to get a free hit as they try to close, be backpedaling sideways as you turn to keep blade steady.
Felling
- Only swing once you see the whites of their eyes.
- Jump during your swing and aim down to get headshot over the ‘top’ of a forward facing shield.
Useful Tips – Trios
- Get the wizard to haste invis you in. Always target the squishiest target first. Be standing next to them when you break invis, not at max weapon range.
- Lurk near doorways while the ranged battle happens – your job is to intercept rogues or shield guys pushing.
- Don’t be afraid to just axe down hydras.
