In solo Mists, keep your defensive cooldowns available for player encounters and disengage when you are outnumbered or facing a bad matchup. The draft also recommends carrying mobility for escape and assessing the competition before contesting a chest.
Before you engage
- Choose gear with mobility or defensive options so you have a way to respond if a fight turns against you.
- Avoid spending your primary defensive cooldowns on PvE mobs if you may need them against another player.
- Before committing to an objective, check whether other players are nearby and whether you can handle the likely fight.
When to leave
If several players converge on your position or an opponent has a strong matchup against your build, prioritize getting away over continuing the fight. The draft suggests using mobs or narrow passages to disrupt a chase, but it does not establish that these tactics guarantee an escape.
Treat a chest contest as optional: if the risk looks unfavorable, leave the area and look for another objective rather than committing your cooldowns.
