Thanks for your advice and help, now I can clear all arena battles on IWBTH difficulty using 1H+Shield.
However, PFUDOR difficulty is still very challenging for me. I'm wondering if this is due to my gear?
I think your gears are fine, but have you considered upgrading them in forge (except the rented shield obviously)? For me, just damage, physical mitigation, and strength, whichever is available, until Lv5, is already helpful. If you are planning to use your rapier long term, consider IW10ing it, too.
That said, it would be great if the exquisites are magnificents. Are you unable to PFUDOR because you are dying? Then maybe you can replace the exquisite powers to magnificent plates, if you have those.
Also, how aggressive are you with using items? With Cure, Full-Cure, Health Potion, and Health Elixir, you should not be cornered as long as you have sufficient spirit. How about deprecating spells? Do you have their abilities slotted? And do you use auto-casts?
Maybe I will try to record my gameplay after all, then you can make some comparison with your play rotation
EDIT: Here it is. Again I'm no veteran, so anyone else feel free to roast me. I'm not used to playing on PC, so I use no keybinds and am a little unused to hoverplay here, hence the slow gameplay. Also ignore the fact that I don't realize I got ejected from stance earlier in round 2. Also in round 3, I switched from weaken to silence because I want to get channeling to cast regen. Stopped early since gameplay is really the same with more mons, just longer startup to weaken/silence everyone.
