I overheard Arenis and a stout dwarf talking about tactics last night, and, considering that lately one could walk from Hlint to Llast on gravestones...let's start with some guidelines to survival.

1)BE PREPARED!
Always have your strongest protections ready to use at a moments notice, regardless if you are in the Goblin Wastlands, or Corath's Tomb.

2)KNOW YOUR ENVIRONMENT!
Learn where creatures like to gather. Learn where enemies prefer to ambush. These are patterns that you can use to your advantage.

3)PARTY UP!
Find other people who complement your abilities. Work as a team. Get to know each other's strengths and weaknesses. Together, you are much stronger than apart.

4)KNOW YOUR PLACE!
Know what is expected of you in the group. Are you Frontline? Are you Artillery? Healer? Scout? Know what is expected of you. Let your allies know what you _can_ do, so the party can excel.

5)PROTECT YOUR ARTILLERY!
They lay down a lot of hurt on the bad guys, and healing on you. Protect them!Take hits if you have to, but keep them alive!

6)BUFF YOUR FRONTLINE!
They are the only thing between you and a world of pain. Make sure they are protected and can hit harder. If you have a choice between a flesh and blood ally...and a summoned..thing, remember this...the party member will be there long after your summon is gone.

Thank you all for reading this. When next I have time, I shall endeavor to go into specifics about party tactics.

Good day to you all
