⚠️ Common Beginner Mistakes

❌ Fighting Too Strong Opponents

Don't attack players/NPCs with much higher power levels. You'll die quickly and lose progress. Start small and work your way up.

❌ Ignoring Energy Management

Running out of energy in combat is deadly. Watch your energy levels and learn to balance attacks with recovery.

❌ Not Learning Defenses

Many new players only focus on attacks. Learning to dodge, parry, and deflect is equally important for survival.

❌ Poor Alignment Choice

Choosing alignment based on "good vs evil" instead of preferred techniques. Pick based on which attacks you want to learn.
