I'm seriously consider making Leeboi a tank that has maxed out magic resist. His main tactic would be to charge a group of spell caster to give our side time to nuke them while I 'confuse' them.

I can go mage killer in both melee and archer and pop rage as I charge the enemy. They will most likely focus on me for a few seconds 10-15. In that time our main PVPers would have time to drop a few nukes on them and me. Bone armor is cheap smile

If we win the fight I can be ressed, if not I would of died anyways.

Any ideas on this strategy? I want to useful in PVP.



You have to max out your melee schools and MAX out your conversions. The tactic for heavy melee is NOT suicide imho. It's rushing the casters, spamming conversions, and dodging with double jump. Depending on you're playstyle (Axe for Heavy damage, Polearm for reach, and Sword for Quick DPS)

Mind you leeboi, this isn't a cheap way to go. You'll be spending LOTS and LOTS of gold. If you intend on going this route, I suggest pairing up with magic user in the guild and DUEL DUEL DUEL. Don't depend on "i'll learn as we go." because it takes repetition to get better at pvp.

And not, "Stroke my epeen" duel - but a mutual duel. Experiment a little. Archer vs melee. Fireball vs Melee. etc etc ...

Don't just be suicidal. Practice kiting round corners while spamming conversions then turning around and heading back into the fight. Practice blocking spells then switching to your 2hander right before you get up to the enemy.

Be flexible.

The reason some people say, "as long as i'm having fun" is because they've never experienced success in pvp yet - they don't want to get too down. It's not that hard. Practice makes perfect. That's what the guild is for.

There's nothing wrong with losing. Just try not to make the same mistake twice.
