Most of the people have taken well of Wrik's advice in the battle. They just wasted the time of their opponents running around. But everyone was not like that. For example, two of the Mah'shai clan were impulsive enough to go all out. And Jacob, who grew well in a few weeks, did not have the proper measure of his strength. Only after he heavily injured a dozen participants did he learn, he was far stronger than he assumed.
With him the two other archers, Aeriel and Sitara played their role incredibly well, not giving a chance to the enemy's archers.
Davin was still in a stalemate with the bald guy—the one once Anton had beaten in the sanctuary. Davin was one of the people who listened to the instruction. He did not go all out, just keep up with the bald guy that had a tattoo of a dragon on his head.
