Died in The Maze from fighting too many NPCs

Tried to fight approximately 6 NPCs at the same time. Got too confident.

I see you're determined to play as Arcane Blade

Let me give you a hint: Inner Power & Arcane Cunning correlate in a very good way. Use it on full scale.
You're also obviously wasting a hellton of talent points on low-level attack skills at the game's beginning. Try investing in enhancements.
