How to fight using 100% of your characters ability.
__________________________________
First off you must fight with less then 4 Armour Rating, because you WANT your enemies to do more damage to your character.
The reason for this is because of Reactive Armour spell (RA). RA when activated does damage to the enemie whenever they hit you, and the more damage they do, the more damage they receive from RA.
You will be doing the grunt of your damage with RA, and your melee weapon. When you go to finish your enemy you will be using magic.
Lets take a look at a scenario:
You are just wandering around, and someone who was completly hidden pops up and hits you with a magic arrow, and then equips a weapon.
What do you do?
First off cast RA on yourself before you do ANYTHING else, since you are on auto attack with them, back away from them and cast greater heal, but leave the target up and equip your weapon.
They will be doing damage to you, and be recieving more damage from your weapon + RA. As soon as your health gets half way, click your health bar with that heal you had saved. This is called precasting. Then run back take off weapon and cast greater heal again, and arm your weapon once more. Take the time to watch how strong your attacker is, how much damage to deal and receive, and if they use precasting as well. Now after your health gets half way again your attacker has prolly healed himself quite a few times. Use your heal and then its time to cast magic arrow on them and null their magic reflect if they had it on.
This time instead of precasting heal, precast explosion instead, and watch there health. As soon as they back off to heal release the explosion onto them, unequip your weapon and then cast energy bolt on them. At first you will not have good timing and they will most likely heal back to 100%. But trust me after practicing alot you can get off that E-Bolt before they can get off there heal.
Remember CONSERVE YOUR MANA FOR FINISHERS.
It is very stupid to try to start a fight with high level spells.
Your mana will be low and you need it for healing. You cannot finish off a person if you dont have mana.
Meditate while fighting:
Another good reason to wear 0 AR is because of meditation and how fast you can get mana back. If you do happen to be ambushed with barely any mana, heres what to do.
Cast RA before anything else. That is a must for ALL fights. Then Cast greater heal and hit your meditate button. You will not be interupted by your attacker. As soon as your health is half way down use that heal, cast another and meditate. This is a very defensive state you are in, and it would take more then 1 person to kill you at this point, especially if you have GM Wrestling, because you will be doing RA + Wrestling damage to them while you are meditating. After you have 80% or more mana you can move into a more offensive style.
You VS a tabber
__________________________________
What is a tabber?
A tabber is someone who mainly uses archery to fire at extremely high rates, using a certain exploit.
How to kill them...
RA, RA, RA! A fight vs a tabber could be an extremly fast fight with you in favor if you have the right materials on you: Greater heal potions.
Because of the tabbers high firing rate, you will only be able to get off small spells without interuption, no greater heal spells here
First off cast RA, then try to cast a greater heal. Keep trying to get the spell off until you are around halfway health. If you havnt been able to cast it, then stop trying, and use a greater heal potion. Keep doing this until the tabber is dead from your RA damage, or they remove there bow to heal themselves.
As soon as you see them remove there bow, You need to go in for the kill! Ebolt is the key spell right now, dont even think about using explosion. Explosion has a 4 second delay, and using it is stupid when someone is healing...
Just as soon as they remove there wep, cast ebolt and target them as soon as it comes up, if they dont die, another ebolt is needed, do this til they are dead or you have 25% mana, NEVER use all your mana trying to finish someone.
By the way, make sure you have casted magic arrow on them at some point in the fight...
You VS a poisoner
__________________________________
Poisoners are the most difficult to kill, because you are constantly curing and healing yourself - using your mana that is needed for a finisher.
It is best to always carry greater cure and greater heal potions with you, and have a reserve in the bank or your house too. Use same tactics as fighting a normal person, but with the added usage of your cure potions.
