The Task At Hand Tips and Strategy

Alternating Attacks

Alternating attacks work best here given the number of enemies you can face in a given area. It's easy to get attacked while using ranged attacks, and just as easy to get swarmed if you use melee too much. Stay away when necessary and attack up close when you have the opportunity.
