Darkfall News - Combat Guide Part One
Posted by Keith Cross on Jun 03, 2009 | 7 comments in our forums
MMORPG.com Darkfall Correspondent Kelly price writes this guide to the basics of Darkfall Combat.
Why bring a knife to a polearm fight? Why bring a polearm to a siege? Why shoot someone in the back with a mana missile when you have a bow and arrow? Indeed why (or why not)!? I am here to answer these questions and much more in my guide to all things sharp, shiny, and lethal.
Well let us jump into the thick of it with a few charts. Don’t you fret, little Agonians, I shall explain!

Good write up.
The author seems to be overly impressed with Archery. He must find a lot of opponents dumb enough to stand still for him.
Archery can be negated easily by movement.
Considering magic and archery are both aimed I dont get your point. Yes magic has splash damage but archery is still the best over all as far as damage goes. Archery damage + rof is superior especially with people that can aim.
Good post thanks
Still dont get why this thread is opened again? hasnt part two been released already a few weeks ago?
Tbh I thought this was a repeat post because I saw nothing new from the last combat post.

Well then don't stand there like a dummy and move. Never been killed by an archer because I keep moving. There are probably some skilled archers who can actually lead an opponent, but they are few and far between. Melee is where the damage is at, not in archery.
