Monk PvP tactics for 1 v 2

Tadashi · 04-04-2006, 11:55 PM

I play a 23 Monk on a PvP server (Vox). I notice that I've been in a lot of close 1 (me) vs. 2 (them) fights, but I haven't been able to pull out of them, yet.

So I'm looking for some good tactics. Obviously this depends on what type of classes you are playing against. But for the sake of argument, if I were fighting a 2 man team with 1 healer and 1 decent dps class, what would people recommend?

Obviously stuns/KDs are important. As are taunts and FD. But there is clearly a path the fight will take, depending on who I focus on at the beginning. I've tried beating on the healer and taunting them to interrupt healing, but the cooldown on the interupt gives the healer time to get another heal on themselves. Fighting the non-healer first seems [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn], since I'm racing time and I only have 1 heal.

So, what do some of the more experienced people recommend?

the only thing you can really do is try and burn down the healer quickly then fight the tank. Unfortunatly at your level that will be even more difficult without tsunami at your disposal. The tank will keep taunting you but the only way you can win is to take down the healer first. Later on your dps will see a significant boost and it becomes a bit easier. Small tip, if theres a ledge or cliff nearby. Use knockback and kick the healer off, you wont get rewards for fall deaths but you will win SMILEY
