* '''Ranged Combat''' - Stones, Arrows and Spears can be used to inflict damage at great range. When you hold down your right mouse button a shrinking rectangle will appear on your screen. When that rectangle is the smallest, your accuracy will be the greatest, so timing is important!

* '''Health and Defense''' - Having good health and defense can turn a death to success. Combat will often leave you hurt so the usage of [[Healing/en|poultices]] and [[armor]] is recommended. You can also equip a [[shield]] in the off hand. Keep one stack of poultices on your hotbar and your armor well repaired before a fight.

|The [[spear]] is very fragile, but it's long range is a tremendous advantage. As with all stone tools, it can be made from granite, andesite, basalt, obsidian and flint. A flint spear does 2 damage during a melee attack and 5 damage when thrown.

;Sprint Kiting
;Sprint Kiting
:The art of sprint kiting describes holding the sprint button and "Jousting" at the enemy, hitting them once and retreating back a couple blocks. This is repeated until the enemy has perished. This works exceptionally well against [[drifters]].

;Locust Bane
;Locust Bane
:The "Locust Bane" describes the method of constructing a 2 block tall tower and pouring water on the sides of it. This prevents [[locust]]s from crawling up the pillar. Now the player can throw spears or rocks at them. Alternatively arrows can be shot from a Bow as well.
