when i make a staker what stats do i want and what equip/moves do i use. I think i want 70 attack 50 stre 70 def and a high lvl magic. when im fighting do i use mage or mellee?

That'll depend on who you are fighting. But generally you should Melee with perhaps Mage as a back up in case things go wrong.

 

Do some research: Read the Player Vs Player forum and watch some duels at the arena for an idea of how to duel.

 

 

 

Good luck.
