Duelist

This Article refers to The Duelist As "He". Please note, this is purely for author's convenience, Females may be Duelist's as well as males.

Duelists's are a playable class in Jagex's off-shot game, RuneScape Assault! The Duelist focuses on speed, using quick, accurate strikes to fell opponents. While you may think stronger enemies could make mince meat of Duelists, their speed and evasiveness allows them to dodge or block nearly every attack. A Duelists's aim is to overwhelm the opponent with the sheer speed and quantity of his strikes. Their poler opposite is the Berserker, who uses brute force to decimate foes.

Players can only start to train the skill berserker once they have achieved 99 Attack, Strength and Defence. But the player can only chose between Duelist and Berserker.

Signature Weapon
The Duelist's signature weapon is the scimitar, which is lightweight and perfect for quick attacks. If The Duelist is not wielding a scimitar, they cannot use Duelist Moves.

Strength's And Weaknesses
A Duelist can often use their speed and agility to evade all blows aimed at them, and are well suited for counter attacks. They can avoid most ranged attacks, and even catch an throw darts and bolts back. Though their blows are weak, enough of them can quickly kill any foe.

However, because of his penchant for speed, The Duelist wears only light armor, which means that failure to dodge a blow can be fatal. The Duelist also cannot dodge magic attacks well, though their light armor means that they don't suffer too much. If The Duelist is stunned, they are susceptable to attacks.

Tactics

 * "Evasion" is a better option then "Workload". "Workload" shifts the damage to the other members of your team, and they may not help you in your time of need if you just lay all the pressure upon them.
 * "Back Of The Line!" when coupled with "Quicker Blade" can decimate the back line.
 * A good tactic is to use "Light's Out". Whoever is stunned for five turns, use Deca Blade on them until they fall. Rinse and repeat, and you have a killing machine.
