Okay, for a Mystic, duelling against a Melee fighter is okay, I guess. I mean, with Bramble Tornado, you can keep 'em nice and far for your ranged attacks. You can even use Mistress to attack from afar.

But what about duelling against Ranged Attackers? Like Archers or any of the Arcane Classes? What does a Mystic do, then?

Is there any way to fight back or is a Mystic's goose well and truly cooked in such a situation? b:shedtear

Is avoiding a duel with a Ranged Attacker the only way out? b:avoid

---x---x---x---x---

On a side-note, what do I do when I'm surrounded by different monsters in PvE (regular Player Vs Monsters)?

I've found that I can solo Monsters up to 25 Levels higher than me (I'm Lv75) when I'm not inside an instance. b:victory

But if I'm attacked by more than two Monsters, even if they're a few levels below me, I die before I can say 'Awww, heck!' b:cry

What do I do in such a situation, other than run away? b:sad

    -When dueling other arcane users Devil Chihyu's Stun is awesome and his attacks do some damage, But Archers are more tricky to handle because they got an anti stun and if they crit they will pretty much one hit you but if you use your Nature's Barrier (to survive longer) and a lvl 11 Storm mistress you can seal the archer (if close enough use gale force) use thicket and kill them before they kill you. Before duels and fights i like having Falling Petals on me to get healed up.

    -XD Whenever your stuck in the middle of mobs use gale force then fly or holy path away, If you think you can handle them you can get them really close to each other thicket-aoe sleep-cragglord and they will be dead. Other times i have Salv buff self- Demon spark-Gale force- heal -heal- gale force and repeat till dead.

    So, basically, what you're saying is, I can't do anything until I'm a Demon Mystic with Lv11 skills? xD

    And what's AOE sleep?

    Well no that is just one of the ways i do it, Archers don't get their antistun till lvl 59 so until then they are easy to kill. You could spam heal yourself for 15 seconds or just seal them off with gale force but that if they run away (while your immobilized with nature's barrier) you won't reach them. Using thicket would probably seal them too. Now if the Archer doesn't know how to duel a mystic then you could stun them and while their using Wings of Grace (their anti stun) you could hit them with thicket sealing them off and dealing loads of damage on them. Im lvl 93 atm and killing archers are a piece of cake.

    The aoe sleep is from lysing Listless Blossom learned at lvl 29.
