Basic TLDR tips

Clear Overwhelming Horde:
You can always:
  • Use skills, certain heroes have good AoE spells to clear horde and mobs
  • Hold your block button then tap your attack button to push the enemies back
  • Remember this combo: block, push back, swing, block, and repeat the cycle

Weapon Choice:
  • Against single target enemy - Weapon that swings from top down is the best
  • Against horde - Weapon with wide arc that sweeps side to side will be effective

When to range attack:
  • Conserve your ammo because is easy to run out but hard to replenish
  • Save them because you will need them to kill specials

Craft:
Re-roll properties and traits on weapons til it fits your style
