How do they do that?

gadlo ouch -

your lucky...warriors dual wielding can get up to 8 attacks, plus riposte opportunity for every attack of yours. seeing as that you are a healer it seems, thats 10 attacks in 1 round.
fighting neutral warriors with a healer sucks and won't get any better, get used to stuff like this, happened to my healer all the time.

der-da-der ouch -

Problem is you need to heal more, you have 271 hp and 652 mana. Arvar is in small wounds and bruises which means the fight is in it's beginning stages. You should skirmish A LOT against a warrior healing nearly every other round. The real trick is staying on top of him and preventing him from any real regen. It's possible to beat him but it will be a very long drawn out fight, and will require some real attrition work on your part.

vyoran ouch -

That's what I was trying to do. One of the reasons this situation arose was that I failed communing weapon ward three times in a row and he was getting free murders in on me. With 271hp, I thought weapon ward = more important than a cucr.

retard ouch -

Obviously you died because you lag, because you flee typed in before the entire thing happens, and were dead before it goes through.

Like other people have mentioned, you will find it very tough to win a fight against a neutral warrior with a healer. Their damage is not going to be reduced by protection, which healers (lacking dodge) rely on for survival. Couple that with the dual wield lottery of attacks - that can be total crap or occasionally gigantic - you can get blown up by a freak round if you aren't careful.

But it isnt all dependent on a warrior getting lucky and everything coming out. You can limit that wearing a mace, which I'm pretty sure a "torrent" weapon isnt. Youd have to be crazy to wield a flail against a warrior, especially such a shitty one.
