Combat Strategy

  • Patience is key: Take your time, don't rush fights

  • Control the fight: Position enemies where you want them
  • Retreat when needed: Reset fights if things go wrong
  • Focus single targets: Kill enemies one at a time, never fight groups

Mobility Tips

For Heavy Armor Users:

Accept slower movement. Position carefully before engaging. Use terrain to limit enemy approach angles.

For Light Armor Users:

Constant movement is survival. Circle enemies, maintain distance, never stand still during combat.
