Can someone tell me how to attack as an oracle?

[Antmf]

I am playing around with an oracle but have no idea what I am doing lol I get creamed fast because of low HP. What is the first attack then what is to follow etc? Thanks...

Squall > Thunderball > Ternion Spammage, rinse and repeat.

I usually use Lightning Bolt instead of Thunderball but that's just personal preference.

Usually LMB

Sounds like you're not kiting perhaps? You just can't stand there as a caster...if they're up in your face too much, you're gonna die. Cast and, if you have to, run a bit till your stun (Thunderball if you're using it, and you probably should be...early levels it'll outright kill things, later levels the stun is still invaluable to a caster) recharges, rinse and repeat.

If you're using Deathchill, you can still run....just kite around them in circles so they're still being damaged by your aura.

Why Squall if they are melee? Dont you use squall just for archers? And what attack do you use on LMB and RMB also the way the view is especially in dungeons by the time I see the monsters its to late I run into them. Because of the default camera angle... Very frustrating...

Squall is THE SKILL in Storm, use it before doing anything else...

Hear hear on Squall. I wish I'd figured that out sooner on my Stormcaller. You'll need to put probably 5-6 points into it tho before it really starts to shine.

For oracle, your LMB would be Ternion.

Also...camera angle does suck. But when you do run into a mob that's too big for you, there's nothing stopping you from high-tailing it back the way you came. They'll lose aggro eventually and you can go in prepared, or you can just hit and run and pick off a few at a time. Melee characters are probably easier to play in this game...at least that's my experience.
