Which class are you?

 

If you're getting dropped out at the 3rd round, the answer is you don't. Go kill the mobs instead.

1) do not attract their attention

2) Use all of your defensive skills

3) Master Red Potions

4) Wind Elixirs - run away

Master Red Pot between bursts, try to kite them out of casting range, pray you survive or someone else gets the kill.

If you see a sorcerer target you then you have to be the more aggressive one and start attacking them.  The best tip I can give is to stay close & run through their character, back and forth, in random directions, as you attack them.

 

Don't just run behind them because the strange way the game deals with lag issues might allow them to cast anyway-- you have to continually run back and forth through them to keep canceling their casts.

 

If you do get frozen, there isn't much you can do.  Use a master red, pop defensive / healing skills, and pray he doesn't instant 1 hit KO you with VS.  On my rogue i pop GP, or dirty plan + GP if the round is about to end. 

 

If you get frozen and can see the sorc charging jupitel thunder then as a rogue you can smoke bomb before he's finished casting and he'll be screwed even though he knows exactly where you are.  It'll force him to use LoV to reveal you and THEN start the process over, which gives you more time to live and more time for him to get targeted by other players.

 

As a wiz or even a ranger you're just plain screwed ever since "frozen" status prevents players from turning around.  (I assume the sorc freezes you + positions himself where you can't cast, since that's what a good sorc does nowadays).  You could pop ice wall to survive the VS but there isn't much point to doing that unless the round is almost over and you're confident you can teleport + kite everyone until it ends (and you happen to be in 1st).

 

 

*In most cases where the sorc knows what he's doing, he'll just catch you by surprise from max casting range with a freeze.  It's probably better to try and figure out which sorc is the culprit, take the death, and manually click on him right after you die.

 

*I usually end up doing this, not just for revenge, but because strategically you can "steal back" your points-- he'll be a better rank from killing you, and killing a higher ranked player gets you more points.  Also you'll know his VS is on CD, and you'll also be able to catch him by surprise now and attack first (since you already have him targeted before you spawn).

This.

 

You're better off trying to take them down than running.

 

Other than that, if you see them use a spear on someone else, that's your best time to go in.

If you're a wizard vs. a sorc the best plan of action is to frost nova them and walk behind them. They can't turn to cast and you can usually get them down by the time it's over or close enough so that 1-2 more firebolts will finish it.

^ Sorcerers can use Cleanse to recover from frozen. I'm not sure if most of them do that though.
