Combat Tactics

Pro tip: The Pursue technique does significantly more damage vs. Evasion, and 90% of the time the Pursue technique is used on Pass 1 — so avoiding my normal strategy of opening with evasion is recommended here.

I'm getting a different version of trample into ground:

The beast tramples you for x melee damage.

Vs what's noted on the wiki:

The beast tramples you into the ground for x melee damage.

Same result opposed/unopposed.

EDIT: actually, a new form of pursue as well, which seems to be related to distance:

[chain 8] [Juryrigged rocket, Blossoming Peace]

The beast pursues you, closing the distance to charge into you for 19 melee damage.

[chain 4-7?] [Shield Block*, Dive for Cover, Foresee, Leaping Dodge, Hoop Jump, Open Parasol]

The beast pursues you inescapably, charging into you for x melee damage.

[chain 3 or non evasion?] [Parry*, Evil Eye, Princely Form, Declaration, Metallic Summons, Offer Passage, Reaching Spear, ]

The beast pursues you, charging into you for x melee damage.
