so i tried freerunner for first time and i really suck at it so i need some info

how do you utilise freerunning, when do you decide to freerun, how do you manage throwables like which throwables you use, do you upgrade them, if you use telekinetic grab, how do you manage them, like do you just buy all the darts from the shop and alchemize them into liquid metal? this is what comes to my mind knowing that freerunning is suitable if you want to gain distance between you and enemy

so if you have some another playstyle as well, i will glad to hear them

thanks in advance for helping this noob how really sucks at freerunning

The Freerunner can run at a faster speed, helping to keep distance from Cave Spinners and Succubi, as well as escape Evil Eyes' Deathgaze, etc.

the thing is that it needs to take a break, so the question basically was how do you handle against them when you can't freerun

The idea behind freerunner is that you run from fight to fight with enough time in between each encounter for your ability to recharge, so you pretty much always move at 2x speed with bonus evasion in combat. I would recommend focusing on throwables only if you have a ring of sharpshooting or upgraded boomerangs, as that makes you a menace at range. For this, you play similarly to a sniper build, with tele grab. Rings of haste and evasion also work nicely with freerunner. Tbh freerunner isn't as good as assassin unless you already have the rings I mentioned above or a ranged build with a crossbow or something, so you have items that synergise with your ability.

how do you manage to run away from enemies like scorpios and crabs(while ascending)?
