    Come to think of it, I have a quick question.

    Do you "blatter" your way through your skills or do you have some form of order, other than what is already mentioned on previous posts?

I have taken all your tips and the video into play and I am now, finally, enjoying PL again without having to rely on mages.

    I was always stingy with pots, why spend money on pots when mages should be healing. At least, that's how I used to see it. Sadly, though, a lot of the newer players cannot get to gripes with their roles in a team. Thankfully I now can, thanks to this post and others of yours.

    Thanks very much for this contribution and bringing the fun back into PL for me.

    You're very welcome! You'll have some deaths here and there from charging in the frontline but you'll get more and more used to this type of aggressive play - it is very fun and more exciting than just sitting in the back

    And yes, I do have a set order in which skills are used, though not followed 100% of the time. Check section V in this guide (the skill map example). Buffs first, Thorn Root/Blinding Shot/Break Armor/Repulse Shot on random single mobs, Thorn Wall when there's a particular large group of mobs (for mages to Nature Strike), and Cruel Blast combo whenever surrounded. It's way too chaotic to follow that in-game of course but that's about the gist of things Also, get in the habit of using skills as soon as they're available, but do this smartly - you don't want to use Thorn Wall or Cruel Blast on a single enemy.
