Something for Combat Situation—Warhammer

Here is a guide of Warhammer which explaining some basic things about any Combat Situation.The tips will greatly improve your chances of success as a MDPS,no matter your combat situation.Hope you could learn something usefull here!
1. A healer friend will be helpfull.
It’s the most important tip! Cherish them as much as they should cherish you. In a tier 1 game having a healer would mean the difference from a game with 10 kills and 10k damage
to a game of 18 kills and 35k damage. I prefer the ranged healers of any type as you can use your snare to peel enemies off them. The ranged healers also further improve your
magic resistances with the appropriate buff…which is GREAT to have (always ask for resist buff over strength buff, trust me and tell them politely to use it on themselves!).
Don’t underestimate the power of having a melee healer with you though (especially if they have a tank friend to guard them!). Their armor buff is extremely helpful.
2. Make sure that you Know your enemy.
Know that your biggest enemy is other melee.That’s a big difference: You have light or medium armor with only about 25% damage mitigation. A defensive tank gets up to 70%
mitigation, an offensive tank 45%ish mitigation. Then know that ranged healers stand no chance against you. Last, know that if you start a fight in melee range against an RDPS,
it’s pretty much over for them as well.
3. Know thyself.
You’re mainly a skirmisher—a caster killer. Get in, get your kill, and get out if you’re going to take hits.
4.Be aware of the situation.
Keep knowing about your surroundings. Very often it is wise to pan your camera around to check if you’re about to be flanked, or what your enemy is about to do. Don’t get too
caught up in the frenzy of battle.
5. Be Together.
Don’t strait into the zerg unless all the melee run in together. You will get tab targeted and focused down unless there are other melee (especially a shield tank) to absorb
part of the damage for you. Running in all together is very effective, but takes some coordination that most pug groups aren’t willing to display.
