Newbie Guide:
Allow me to point out some of the tactical applications of your skills.
If a monster is casting a spell, you have a better chance of disrupting the spell the more damage you inflict. Therefore, damage-increasing skills like Power Strike or Mortal Blow give you a much better chance to cancel a spell. Of course, you may be relieved to know that the only magic-using monsters here in our blessed Elven Forest are the evil Plague Zombies.
Also, be aware of the critical strike ability which is gained from Power Strike and Power Shot. A critical strike occurs when any of these two skills is used for the final blow against a monster. The experience you gain from a monster can be increased by increasing the amount of damage you inflict with the final blow, so you may increase your experience reward by using one of these skills when the enemy's HP is near zero.
Elemental Heal, learned at Level 15, is a very useful magic skill. By all means learn it at the earliest opportunity. Return
