Quicky

This tactic occurs near the start of FoW. The first Shadow Form user who arrives at the ramp before Battlefield should run past the Shadows, and quickly ball the Skeletal group. Typically this is done by either using a longbow or HoS to aggro the group and pull it back a short distance, before jumping in with Death's Charge. If the skele's are already in a ball, the MT or Terra can immediately Death's Charge into the group. Meanwhile, the other players present should avoid catching aggro of the skele's. As soon as the ball is ready, the VoS's should immediately spike. Note that not every skele needs to be killed, one or two lone skele's can be finished off by the Shadow group. Then, everyone runs deeper into Battlefield.

If there are Shadow mobs remaining, they will pop the beasts in the first Shadow group that spawns when the quest Lightning Forest is taken.
