.: Help for advance

The advance command moves you into melee range with a target.

Usage: 

  advance goblin
  Move into melee range with the goblin

  advance player
  Move into melee range with another player (PvP zones only)

Note: You typically don't need to use this command directly. When you
attack with a melee weapon, you will automatically advance into melee
if not already there.

When to Use Advance:
• To engage an enemy before they notice you
• To close distance with a ranged attacker
• To force an enemy into melee combat

Important Notes:
• You must be balanced to advance
• While advancing, you cannot take other actions
• Once in melee, you cannot move to other rooms without retreating or fleeing

Balance Cost:
• Players: 3 seconds
• NPCs: 5 seconds (varies by creature)
