Killed all casters in one form or another without much problem.. killed all healers no problem.. got a bruiser as well. Didn't try monk yet.. lost to a pally. A smart fabled pally or SK is prolly my hardest fight right now. <div></div>

[northla]

You use shield or Two hand in pvp ? you use offensive of defensive stance ? I am curious.

[TunaBoo]

Vs caster or healer 2h and offensive. Vs tanks im not sure yet which way is best. <div></div>

<P>Sorry, /duel is not PvP, its just /duel nothing more and alot less than this thread seems to think it is.  PvP is playing in a game situation where you maybe attacked at any time.  Really, /duel is people going around cherry picking targets for a cheap thrill.  I like PvP and I won't /duel anyone. The results of /duel are even less meaningful to me than soaps.  OMG, my class has reports of being owned in /duels against this class so many times and they seem to think it means something.</P> <P>It doesn't and /duel isn't PvP, its just /duel.  </P> <P> </P>

[Colossaltitan]

<DIV>Umm...Okay? [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot], Your DUEL Experience. BFD.  Everyone obviously understood what the intentions and the purpose of the post was. Take Care now, Bye bye then.</DIV>

<P>", /duel is people going around cherry picking targets for a cheap thrill"</P> <P>Actually that is exactly what happens on a PvP server.</P> <P>In a duel both parties agree to the engagement.  </P> <P> </P> <P>Kondar</P>

[Belce]

<DIV>Having someone walk up and challenge another person to a duel is not PvP, no one that enjoys playing in a PvP game would ever consider that to be PvP. In a PvP game, a person that looks around for easy targets to gank is not playing PvP, they are just ganking.  In order for a game to be considered PvP it has to be group and anytime, your consent is when you start.   I look at this duel and arena stuff and hope that someday this game decides to include PvP instead of not having it. </DIV>

<DIV>Faced a 50 Warden and a 50 Wizard yesterday ....</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>RESULTS</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Lost to the Warden ... he had a wicked knock/back stun that rendered me defenseless</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Lost to the Wizard ... Fast & furious fight...I may have won if he didn't land his Master I Ice Comet that hit me for over 3k </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>~~Vuk</DIV>

[Poochymama]

<P>Anyone know how to beat a wizard?</P> <P>When I duel them they just root ice comet, BOF and im dead</P> <P>Any suggestions?</P>

[TunaBoo]

Start duel on their head. Chain stun them. Wiz should never cast a spell vs you. <div></div>

[Belce]

<P>What if it is a smart wizard, one that put the duel up at range and won't let you close?  </P> <P>No smart wizard would ever allow a guardian to get within melee range to start a duel and only a stupid wizard would accept one at that range.  </P> <P>How do you defeat a smart opponnent in a duel?  They have already inspected you, they see what you have, they know what you bring, they put up the challenge hoping you would accept. </P>

[TunaBoo]

At some point, a wizard has to stop to cast. So throw in a .2 second casting interrupt, then chain stun until he is dead. <div></div>

[Ardnahoy]

<P>I found myself only getting /duel invites from people much higher level than myself. The lowest level to challenge me was a level 45 wizzy to my level 40 at the time.</P> <P>I tried to fight the wizzy but it was pointless. Five levels in this game means a lot. I missed 80% of the time, and she resisted my almost all my combat arts. I was happy to see that I resisted about 40% of her spells so I lasted a few seconds longer than if they had landed. This was my only reward for chosing heat resists. I tossed some arrows at her when I was rooted, but not one arrow landed. There really is no strategy when nothing you throw out makes contact.</P>

[Belce]

Smart wizard...

[Belce]

Right then, my mistake.  It wasn't a real smart wizard, it was the otherside.  Level is king.
