Good spell combo for a marksman?

dsdeiz · 07-16-2011, 03:50 PM

Just wondering what would be a nice combo for a marksman. I was thinking of freezing an enemy first, go behind him, cast df, then use ambush and finally attacking the hell out of the enemy.

Seems to be effective against locks but dunno what to do when other I encounter other classes. Archers have sotw in w/c casting time is just instant. As for warriors, I don't think I have a chance against them..

I also have sudden strike but don't really know when to cast it. Before ambush? After ambush??

Thanks!

Best thing is to find out yourself what works for you.
(Eg. get some friends to arena and try, test) because its greatly dependant on gear and configuration what combos work and what doesnt. And then theres personal preference and movement/timing skill that adds or reduces the fun youll have with a combination. Finally, arena is one of the best ways to get to know spells (at least those that work in arena), not only your own but also other classes ones since you can directly ask what each spell does when you are duelling/testing.

Take into account though that, unlike in arena, the wz adds on one hand obstacles that can work for or against you and on the other hand you have generally more place to move away in a straight line.

Good luck and fun

Hi Enio!

Thanks for the tips! It seems I'm getting a hang of it now. For warriors, it looks like I need to take advantage of my range and just keep on running when say a barb is buffed.

Now I need to learn how to face hunters

Can't seem to get away when they're in camo. With all there nega buffs and huge dmg when buffed, I can't seem to do anything

Thanks!
