== Well, much better than last time. I was told by an observer that had I communed wrath at the end instead of trying to skirmish, I would have won.


In this log it looks like you are trying to play a paladin like a warrior. Don't do that. Your advantage is you can run around and heal while he tries to hunt you down. Do that, and get in some wraths and this might go better.
low levels 2 dex and 2 str are worth one hit and 1 dam respectively. higher levels, 1 dex and 1 str can be worth 1 or even 2 hit or dam.
hobble costs you 4 dex or so. its basically a dirt kick or curse, and then the lag is so long from a faceplant that you get free rounded.
Skirmishing works best when one player is clearly better, or when a casting class has trance and an assload of cure scrolls. Otherwise, smart physical classes will be healing over the tick, and that's just something you don't want as a hybrid without trance. A drawn out fight is not your friend with 20 mana regen per tick while sleeping. Its a very fine balancing act, doing enough damage for it to matter, and then fleeing and healing up to full, and then coming back to finish. If the fight goes one one tick beyond that, you're screwed.
As we can see in this log. Not enough damage done for fleeing and healing to matter. Rothak's back to nearly full health too.
you're saying there isnt much wrath spell going on, but then again he is getting chain bashed by a fire giant.
lag skills are hybrids' worst enemy. dodge protects from lag skills. hybrids lost dodge and the armor skills replaced the lag skill protection from dodge. I believe it's a 1:1 thing, so you are required to load up as heavy as possible to have full protection from lag skills that dodge would give. Wear armor too light and you're a free kill to a bash/trip/grappler.
Krapunski I'm really not happy that you made me go back and read the log again.
After a second read through I stand with my initial assessement. Let me break it down.
Round1
594 hp - Fled. Should have communed a wrath
422 hp - Fled. Should have healed but got caught (then ran and healed - good)
Round 2
465 hp - Fled. Should have healed
314hp - Fled. Should have healed
204hp - Fled. Should have communed wrath. You just got hobbled with 204hp and he is pretty hurt, you may as well go down swinging. (Plus he would have been hurt more at this point if you had been fleeing and healing earlier - more fighting rounds)
Let me address your counter-argument of 'he wouldn't have had enough manas to do all that'. He died with 267 mana. That's enough for the healing and wrathing I suggested - possibly more wrathing due to the longer fight caused by running and healing.
When I say 'should have healed,' I do not mean 'should have stayed in combat and healed'. I meant 'should have run and healed'.
That seems obvious to me but I just thought I should set that straight.
