[Neofito]

I'm trying to understand how it works, searching in forum and wiki, even have done an and hill raid to test in game, but i don't understand how it works at all.

thanks for the link, I had missed this one. Now two more questions
* Is neede have a combat school created or there are default moves?
* What are best to test with, ants or bats? because bats use to be alone, and ants are in groups.....
Thanks in advance again

you have a default combat school

and you can fight ants 1v1 by simply using the "attack" command (t) and clicking on one of them. However, I feel like fox (from a boat) are the easier opponent atm

[MagicManICT]

Bats are easy if you can get chop from ants or get enough STR to punch them to death until you do get chop.

Anyone gotten any combat moves from ants yet? Haven't gotten one in about a dozen or so tries. I know that's not many tries, but one would think combat moves would be more common. I was getting one every few fights last world on a new character.

[ninja_yodeler]

None from ants but one from every other kind of animal I've fought thus far, which was striking odd to me also.

I got zig-zag from an ant yesterday after 10 or so kills.

The attack comand worked for take only one ant thanks.
But i still don't understand how combar system works, Seems if i press hot keys (numbers) i trigger the attack but in fact i don't know which attacks to use and the correct sequence....

[MagicManICT]

There really isn't a "sequence." Targets hit each other and those hits do damage and/or make openings. Defenses (blue) reduce openings. There are other specials and utilities that can have effects on the combat that you can discover. Avoid using slow cooldown attacks unless you have a goal or it is a "killing blow."

Effectively, hit each other a few times. After your openings start growing, back of if you can and uses defenses to lower them back down.

Being out of combat slowly lowers openings back to the default level, so don't reengage anything until then or be ready to clear them early.

Well I tried to fight ants and now have acid burns all over my ass....
I remember seing a super good video on the whole combat system a while back but I cant find it atm.

Is there a list of how high UA AGI and STR you need to fight certain animals?
