New page

A list of general tactical ideas:

=Basic Tactics=

*Tank + Hitters
**Tank in a more aggressive style than hitters and focuses only on healing
**Hitters only focus on hitting. Duh.

*Rescue Tanks + Hitters
**Two Characters with 'rescue' share tanking, while hitters hit.
***Rescue Tanks quaff to full, rescue OTHERTANK, repeat.

*Round-Robin Tanking (some mobs just switch randomly)
**While tanking, stop hitting and just heal like crazy.
**While not-tanking, hit hit hit!

*Style Control Tanking (some mobs aggro the most aggressively styled player)
**Switch styles up/down to control who is tanking, have some plan for how to do this to share the burden.

*LinkDead Tanking.
**Useful for avoiding IP Limitations.
***You can start a fight on a char that you LinkDead. Log another Killer. You are still ip1.
**LD Tank will die, but, might last long enough to allow hitters to take the edge off the mob so its more doable.
***Recall that Gas attacks are HP based. If you can drop its HP significantly, its Gas will be much more withstandable.
**Especially effective with CM Mages as LD Tanks against all-magic-attack-mobs (see below)

*Flee/Heal Tactics
**If you cannot quaff in the room, or there is a prog or other problem preventing quaffing....
***Fight until you need to heal, flee to a safe room, heal up, return to mob. Repeat.

*Zurg Rush
**Death may not be much of a big deal at all in a freely supplicatable area....
***Fight. Die. Quit. Log a new character who is ready to go, go to mob, Fight. Die. Quit. Repeat.
**You may only need 2 or 3 characters if you can reset/return quickly enough

=Class Specific Tactics=

*Ranger Archers
**Ranger (or Ranger Army) fires arrows from a room away at the mob.
***Can have a tank fighting mob while archers fire arrows, or, no tank - JUST fire arrows into an un-engaged mob.
***May only be viable to a certain point before mob heals. Could drop HP enough to reduce Gas Breath damage though.
***Mob may chase you, so heads up!

*CounterMagick Mage
**Path of Countermagick 'invoila magicka' spell gives full immune magic.
***Can tank magic-attack mobs super effectively for about 40 rds.
***Perhaps you can flee to re-cast invoila?
**If the penalty for exceeding the mob's IP limit is a magic attack, CM Mages nullify that. Multi CM Mages All You Want.

*Barbarian Choke/Flee or Choke/Flee/Quit method.
**If another player chokes the mob, you can then choke again. So, 2 or more other barbs can all choke/flee/choke/flee:
***Choke Mob. Flee. Another player chokes mob, they flee. You return, choke,flee. In/out/In/out etc.
**If solo: choke mob, flee, quit, reconnect, return, choke mob, flee, quit, reconnect, return, choke mob, flee, repeat til dead.

*Immobilize Mage
**Mage of the Path of Balance 'immobilize' skill renders a mob fully incapacitated.
***Have immober cast immob while a hitter or several hit.
**Many mobs are immob'able. Some do require Nephandi spelldowns for immob to land however, test!

*Stun
**Warrior's 'stun' skill can be useful to knock some crap out. Not really much of a 'tactic' but something to test.

*Poison
**Poisoning a mob and waiting it out makes any mob a wimp. Again, not a huge "tactic" perse, but worth testing if poison lands!
