Using "source" parameter for quoting developer blog, instead of the ref tags.
You can tell when an enemy uses a special attack by the overhead icon.
{{Quote|source=[http://projectgorgon.com/2014/05/design-issues-still-needing-improvement/ Developer blog] <small>May 13, 2014</small>|I’m leaving the Rage system alone for now, until we have more players grouping up. Looking at the stats for small group combat, it looks like groups use rage-depletion a little more often. So it may be that I can tailor Rage to be a more compelling group-combat mechanic, where one person in the group has the “rage-keeper” role. That could be interesting.<ref name="blog1">[http://projectgorgon.com/2014/05/design-issues-still-needing-improvement/ Design Issues Still Needing Improvement]</ref>

One way the game currently addresses this is that you can not “sprint” backwards, just walk backwards. So if you want to get away quickly, you have to turn around.

This means you can turn away from the monster, run down the hall at high speed, and keep shooting arrows — the arrows would go through your head and hit the monster behind you. This is silly and bizarre.<ref name="blog1"></ref>}}
Kiting is something the devs want to address eventually, although it is intended to allow some amount of kiting — "archers should be able to move and get a few extra attacks in".
When an enemy drops special loot (cyan, yellow, purple colour), there is a distinctive sound and a particle effect.
