  1. 01SetupRead enemy defenses

    Use initiative for the weapon sequence only when the target will stay in range long enough to finish it.

  2. 02CommitForce the decisive trade

    Time dodges for pressure, evasion, or a planned breakbar instead of spending all endurance as movement.

  3. 03ResetReset and rotate

    Use stealth and mobility to reset a bad trade; do not chase through enemy reinforcements.
