Well done, Donk hits the nail on the head. Confidence helps a lot while fighting in DF. One thing I see people doing where they shouldn't is ask what the prowess is o the person they are fighting. It doesn't matter what their prowess is, all that we know they could just be a crafter with most of their points going to masteries in crafting. Besides that there are people with high prowess that can't fight. On the other side of the spectrum there are those with lower prowess that are much tougher.
