Dueling

• Dueling is a large part of the game. This is where you get to test your character against other player’s characters.

• To duel someone you have to be in the same kingdom as they are. Change from “New Fight” to “Duel” and select your target and fight them like you would a monster.

• There is a duel tournament held once a month with prizes.

• Dueling is affected by modded stats, quest items, armor, relics, your class, poker cards, skills, and how fast you can attack them.

• Your modded stats determine your accuracy, damage, and health.

• Quest items can give you void and mez resists, increased damage and stats, annulments, and chances to revive if you are killed.

- SoSe, SoA, 3rd scepter, class specific quests items, Detangler, Vamp Horns are useful for dueling.

• The higher your armor defense, the less damage you take. Many armor pieces give bonuses for dueling (such as Ambush from shadows, void resist from earthen and above). Shields give more armor defense than other pieces. Shields also give a chance to block attacks.

• Relics give huge stat bonuses, add defense, boost damage, add relic damage, give chances to void/devoid, resist being voided/mezzed, and chance to revive if you are killed.

• Your class allows you to use shields, heal spells, dodge attacks, and make your enemy miss or fizzle, among other things. Each class also has various void and mez resists.

• Skills give increased minimum damage, defense, and attack speed, healing, and critical hits.

• Poker cards give very useful boosts when dueling. Note that using these abilities will cause you to lose your sleeved card (which you can later get back again playing poker or using tectons or stones) and will last until you successfully kill a creature or player. You can only use one of these abilities at a time since they overwrite each other if used simultaneously. All Red cards give Ambush. Note that you only leave Ambush mode after it has once successfully fired, guaranteeing some usage out of every sleeved red card.

Black Jack	50% void/mes resist
Black Queen	50% anti void/mes resist
Black King	50% Revive
Black Ace	more than doubles all criticality chances
Red Cards	The Ambush ability when activated gives you a 50 percent chance of ambushing someone who attacks you, causing their attack to be useless (their relics don't fire and they can't attack) and still allowing you to perform your counter attack as always.

• Also a good computer with a fast connection lets you attack and hopefully kill your opponent before they get a chance to do the same to you.
