What's your favorite character setup (height, weapon, shield, etc.)? Do you play aggressively, defensively, or alternate between offense and defense? Why do you like your play style?
In the arena I prefer short and two-handed. I've yet to play the campaign extensively, but I'll probably prefer short and one-handed with shield. Being short helps with dodging attacks by crouching but leaves you vulnerable as you are moving down, but more importantly a short character with a short weapon has much less trouble in tight spaces. If you go up against someone with a longer reach, just run up and push against them for most of the fight. Or you can swap to a two-hander if you have it.
