General Tips

• Your Close Combat ranks will carry over into the test, so having higher ranks would be useful.
  • Using defensive-offensive moves like Counterattack or Windmill will help the player manage multi-aggro.
• Attacking an enemy with Charge will reset it's cooldown.
  • Failing to attack an enemy with Charge (i.e. by using Charge against Counterattack, Windmill, or a faster Normal Attack) will not reset the cooldown.
  • Rapid use of Charge will quickly consume stamina. The use of stamina potions that drop will likely be required at some point during the test.
    • Giant players consume more stamina using Charge, and will need to watch more carefully this resource pool.
• If quick enough, it's possible to stun-lock an enemy by continuously charging it into the wall.
• Targeting weaker enemies first can reduce the need to manage too many simultaneously attacking monsters.
• Critical Charge damage is very important, because high damage attacks provide crucial bonus points.
  • Giant players have an advantage here with their greatly increased damage potential using Charge.
• Blocking ranged attacks gives a large amount of points, but it can also quickly get the player killed. Use with caution.
  • Using the health potions that drop can help mitigate this damage.
• Players can disable names and chat using Ctrl+N to improve visibility of enemy skills.
