The immense amount of bleeding a Blademaster is able to swiftly and consistently put out will massively drain the mana of those who regularly clot to keep themselves from bleeding enough to be hit with the Brokenstar. Coupled with the increased clotting cost imposed by an impaleslash, this can put a person in severe danger of rapidly having their mana and willpower depleted, leaving them unable to abate the bleeding and easy pickings for a competent Blademaster. It is often advised to prioritise sipping mana elixirs or tonics over health when fighting Blademasters, in order to keep mana reserves high enough to consistently clot away their bleeding attacks. | |||
Blademasters are also capable of putting out an extremely large amount of damage very quickly with infused multislashes and drawslashes coupled with strikes to the sternum. Liberal use of the shield tattoo is vital to surviving Blademasters whom are focusing on the damage approach, as they will be forced to either raze the shield tattoo down or devoting their strikes to icefist in order to circumvent your shield tattoo, lowering their damage output temporarily. | |||
Blademasters also possess the potent ability to [[Evade]], which is a powerful movement ability that allows a Blademaster to silently enter and leave rooms past any and all obstructions, also losing anything following them in the process. Classes which focus on using entities in order to deal damage and afflict an opponent should keep a careful eye out for an evading Blademaster and make sure they reorder their entities to engage the Blademaster as soon as he re-enters the room. | |||
