Stealth Mechanics
May 27th, 2009As you probably have read, there are no pure stealthers, but basically the Witch Elf and Witch Hunter have an ability usable once a minute (the re-use timer begins when you break your stealth) that stealths them for 30 seconds at high effectiveness, while draining a small amount of Action Points over time.

Soloing in WAR: Is it really a group-or-die game?
May 27th, 2009In a nutshell: yes, it is perfectly viable. Due to the lack of long-range long-duration crowd control, and the mounts, you should be able to dodge zergs and groups just as well as you could in Dark Age of Camelot for the most part. With the rapid healing rate after about 25 seconds of being out of combat, you also won’t have to worry about winning a fight, then having no health left a minute later when you encounter your next one when playing a melee type or a class without a healing spell. Additionally, with the higher Time To Kill (TTK) in WAR, you’re not going to die in a split-second to a caster that happens to see you as a melee class, or a caster who gets caught unaware by a melee class, though the latter situation would be harder to cope with.
