That's why this kind of confrontation has been going on for a long time. They are standing in a place where no skills of mine, including my AOE skills, can reach them. Nestled in a safe place, they instantly healed those who were attacked, and also buffed them when needed. It was the perfect sort of party play.
Tramp! Tramp!
Honestly speaking, I regretted setting Stamina as the stat that would experience 100% growth along with my Intellect for the Mutual Growth trait.
So far, I have not benefited from my superior stamina, compared to my willpower, which I chose as the second stat which was experiencing 50% growth.
In the meantime, I was totally defenseless without an Ice Shield amid the enemy's attack.
The enemies seized the opportunity and ruthlessly attacked me.
Naturally I was exposed to their intense attacks.
Puck! Puck! Puck!
But I ignored their attacks and kept stepping forward.
