I'd aggro the mob with a fire, or poison arrow which does damage over time. I would spam it with my regular attacks until it met my pet, a sort of hound companion. Then I would start using special attacks as it was fairly easy to hit, being bogged down with my pet, and I thought, a good use of my mana. At this point I could choose whether to heal my pet or let it die. Generally I'd let it die and summon another right in the nick of time then I could pull back and continue my missile attacks. If the mob was particularly tough or fast I would need to use a bluff attack which would send it running.

To me, this was some of the most interesting combat I've ever experienced in an MMORPG. It can get really interesting with large groups of mobs and players. Dungeons are particularly interesting and enjoyable.
