Tibia Fighting: Basics, Techniques, and Styles

AntMag.NET

This section teaches the basics of fighting, training, and simple strategies in Tibia. It's divided into three forms: Basics, Techniques, and Styles. Basics cover fundamental fighting concepts (e.g., training, following, attacking). Techniques are advanced forms of basics (e.g., mass killing weak monsters). Styles are overall fighting approaches (e.g., balanced, aggressive, spell-based).

6. A) All Vocations

Basic Things:

Keep your eyes on the screen!
Luring
Avoiding monsters

BASIC'S NAME: Keep your eyes on the screen!

INFO: While fighting or walking in dangerous areas, monitor your health/mana, items (including ammo), character's surroundings, and opponents/allies. Your health is a visible meter, and mana requires minimal eye movement. Neglecting these can lead to grave danger. Awareness of your surroundings prevents being trapped by monsters or the environment, whether charging or fleeing. Even a 5-second lapse in attention can be fatal.

BASIC'S NAME: Luring

INFO: Luring is necessary when facing groups of monsters that can only be defeated one at a time. Get close enough for only one monster to notice you, then run away so only that one follows. Once far enough to avoid the others, stop and kill the lured monster.

NOTE #1: Be cautious! Luring a powerful monster to an unexpected area can anger other players. If you cannot handle it, warn others in-game or to counselors.

NOTE #2: If you encounter someone while luring, the monster might attack them. Similarly, if you see someone luring, the monster might target you. Always be aware of your surroundings!

BASIC'S NAME: Avoiding monsters

INFO: When low on health, mana, or without healing resources, avoid monsters. This is also useful when needing to traverse dangerous areas safely.

The basic method is using the Invisible spell, but it doesn't fool all monsters and requires a magic level of 15 for mages and paladins. Knights may use rare invisibility runes or rings.

To check a hole before descending: 1) With a friend: Descend, quickly check your battle window for monsters, and have your friend immediately use the rope to pull you up before taking significant damage. 2) With a PA and Magic Rope spell: Descend, check your battle window, and immediately cast the spell.

6. B) Knight

Basic Things:

Knights, the Aggressive Melee Fighters
Attacking
Choosing a Weapon
Training
Following
Blocking
Casting magic and using IH/UH's
Dodging Beams

Fighting Styles:

Balanced
Aggressive
Defensive
Mixed Melee Fighting and using Runes

BASIC'S NAME: Knights, the Aggressive Melee Fighters

INFO: Knights are typically the frontline combatants, charging opponents and dealing/taking damage. A knight can succeed through strength alone, without complex item or spell strategies for survival against most monsters. With good skills, equipment, and enough Ultimate Healing (UH) potions, they can defeat most Tibian monsters. The knight's path is expensive; while they don't spend on spells or ammunition, their equipment costs exceed the cost of all known spells in Tibia. Death is also costly, potentially resulting in the loss of valuable equipment.

This section for knights covers basic actions and armaments. While there's not much to learn, what is offered is vital.
