The Matrix Online: The Art of the Duel

Warner Brothers' official website for The Matrix Online has been updated with information about the game's dueling system, providing some helpful hints on ability and statistic tweaks you can make that will help your character be a better dueler. An excerpt:
If you have the $Information to pay for it, you should always level up your primary dueling abilities as high as you can make them go either to the cap for the ability or the cap for your redpill's level. This ensures that you fight with maximum effectiveness.

For example, you must always have the Awakened ability loaded, so it should be at its maximum for your level. Each level added to Awakened also adds to your combat tactics, viral deflection bonus, and melee damage bonuses, among other things, so you will be at a distinct disadvantage if you do not keep this ability as high as possible. Since Awakened is a starting discipline, many redpills forget to focus their training in this crucial skill set before advancing in others.
