So you are saying to me, that there is some magic dodging sequence as effective as blocking that is discovered after more than 3000 hours of playtime ? Seems legit. Or maybe you are implying I'm a noob at melee ? You are confusing me now.
A good player can fight alone against several enemies in melee simultaneously. Winning isn't even that difficult and if you barely know how to block you can already survive and give them a very hard time. Against two archers, shieldless infantry gets obliterated in less than five seconds, and shielders die of kiteflu anyway.
It's not magic, it's experience and tenacity.
You only dodge when the archer is about to release the arrow.
-You are run in one direction to make the archer aim there,
-then imediately turn in the other direction when the bow is fully drawn, to make the archer turn there quickly, which opens the reticule,
-then turn again and this point the archer will either shoot in the wrong direction or miss because the reticule will be too open if he tries to catch up.
That's it, no need for fancy stuff or breakdancing when you should be running down the archer. This is the one sequence you should know by now if you and people like you bothered learn about all aspects of the game in your more than 3000 hours of playtime.
And guys, you can't run around a melee group if you have no speed.
