Well guys im sure most noobies ( like me ) want to know how to start of in a duel with someone. So what i wanted to know is what are YOUR tactics for dueling certain people and what skills you use first or whenever.

Usually in a duel i use Winged Shell as a starter then Stun arrow ( depending on the character ) then i just get confused on what skills to use lol.

So please enlighten me and the noobies b:chuckle

    After your little thing with stun arrow, remember this:
    Thunder skills on HA (heavy armour) people, barbs, bm's, veno's the majority of the time anymore.
    Normal attacks on robe (arcane) classes, psychics, clerics & veno's.
    As for the LA (light armour) class, it's really a thing of guess work for which skills to use (Magic or Physical) unless you already looked at their gear to see which they would be weakest against.

    Of course, all classes can use different gear aside from their preset suggestion. Meaning there ARE light armour BM's out there, and there ARE heavy armour venos like previously stated.

    hmm yeah i usually use the lightning skills when i vs BM's or Barbs but didn't know against veno's also :o...i remember 2 hitting a bm when i was lvl 57 and the bm was 64 xD <3 Critics

    Generally for me against any robe class i open with stunning arrow and just auto-attack away.

    For barbs and BMs i stun then metal debuff, then lightning stike, kite for a bit while using lightning strike until stun is off of cooldown, then i stun lightning strike and just repeat.

    If we can use genies i just use holy path whenever they get really close and because of this ive been able to beat 8x barbs.

    For sins as soon as the timer pops up I use Wings of grace then i start running away. Then i use stuning arrow and just use normal attacks.

    I'm not exactly good in duels but it seems to me the best thing to do is use your range to your advantage.

    I try to start off with Holy Path just to run out of range, then Aim Low to immobilize, and then attack with either normal attacks or metal skills depending on the armor they're wearing. Windcatcher helps, with its +2 range bonus.

    Elven Aclarity would be better than HP if you can spare the spark, but I've never used it in a duel. Does anyone know if, in a duel, you'd accidentally cast it on your opponent if you tried to use it? I've never tested...

    Yes, I'm still a stubborn holdout in favor of the old game. Haters gonna hate. ;]

    LigerKing (Barb), Girasole (BM), Shamsheer (Sin), ArborSoul (Mystic).

    PK is not the same as duel (talking about the thread name) anyways.. as Ksir said--
    Arcane
    > Stun them and pwned them with regular attacks.. (they are ultra squishy)
    Heavy
    > Stun them and then lightning skills! ALWAYS use the 2nd lightning skill first ( to decrease their metal defense ) then the 1st one ( i hope u got it maximized ) then run a little bit to stun again or whatever u wnna do lol.. and repeat the dose... hopefully u can pwned them with 2 crits...xD
    Light
    > very common armor fo the dammed assasins.. since they are so hard to stun i try sometimes to stun them with aim low to also decreases the phsysic defense (besides any add of ur weapon) and then the same process against Heavy ones.. it works for me at this levels..
    PK 4ever! if u dont like to be pwned, ambushed or ganked... STAY BLUE AND DONT QQme
