I've won fights in similar situations by just kiting my target for a while, then testing with an arrow. If I can shoot at all, my sword will work again, too. If not, I might get hit once, but regen should help with that.My Failure: I went behind someone crafting something in a crafting table, hit him 3 times, then nothing. The kid turns around with his newly crafted iron sword, and attacks me. Luckily I'm smart, I run away. Next player encounter: The kid is absolutely oblivious. He couldn't hear me, see me, think about my presence if i was standing in front of him. (hes fishing in a one block down water source... your one smart guy...) I attack him with my stone sword, hit him 2 or 3 times, and.. nothing. After seeing I have been rendered useless through attacks, he whips out a stone sword and I am left wondering. "Why does this game despise me." <3 I'll do my best to carry on though.
