Max had long since figured out that each Elven House had their own unique form of fighting borne out of the emotion that powered them.
For anger, it was clear that their fighting style would be erratic and most times wild.
A disregard for personal safety would ensue as their core desire would be to destroy everything in their path.
It was easy to infer after recalling his first clash with Tor.
Getting in contact with his rage, Max immediately lost his mind and found himself acting on instinct like a mere wild beast.
The second instance came from his experience with Monarch Taegen of House Ravagwyn.
He acutely recalled the rage that nearly took hold of him.
If it had succeeded, he would have abandoned all inhibitions just to take down the obstacle before him.
Such tactic was powerful, in that one didn't have to care about anything else.
This was an important piece in the battlefield.
