This is my strategy and works best outdoors on crits that are walking away
from you(Bears of all types and even spiders). Get behind your target and
cast bolt while it's walking away from you, start backing up until you can
cast again, cast a shock spell, back up til you can cast again and hit with
another shock spell(or root if you feel it's necessary) I found that I could
take on yellow grizzlies in this manner and get 3 hits in before they got to
me. If you want to play this dangerous(yellows that is) make sure you stay
in the area of a guard.....

(I by no means invented this but this is what got me over the level 10
hump...)
