Things you should do as an Arbiter, when a big bad could giant berserker comes calling.
A. Keep me dirted. If I can't see you, I can't switch targets, and put the big hurt on you.
B. Manacle. Manacle. Manacle. -10 Dex is killer on a cloud giant, no matter what his clothes, plus the other obvious benefits.
C. You are an arbiter, use roots, blowfish, etc... They are easy to come by, and can swing a close battle.
D. Don't panic! Fleeing is not always your best option. Use your best judgement here.
E. Stand next to your inner healer. Type "heal heal". Nuff said.
There are few other things, but if you play an arbiter long enough, you'll figure them out. I am not speaking from my ass, I have had three Arbiter Elders, and one Lord/Lady.
Better Luck.
Oh, and at least you tried. Better to have died trying, than to have cowered in disgrace.
