{{Anchor|Attack}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Attack
|description = Attack with your weapon of choice
|syntax = SLASH <target>
|detail = The above syntax is an example and may differ between weapons.
Additional syntax: PROBE <weapon>
As any commoner knows, it is a simple affair to attack with a weapon, however attacking skillfully
with one requires a bit of knowledge. To attack with a weapon, first you must WIELD it, and then by
using PROBE on your weapon, it will reveal a number of attack commands that you can use with it.
A longsword, for example, will state you can slash with it. So in order to attack someone, you
would SLASH <target> to make use of it.
Using different weapon attacks is generally no different between each other, at least not at this
stage. It does however change how it looks when you attack with the weapon.
|cooldown =
|target = Both players and NPCs
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Proficiencies}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Proficiencies
|description = Gaining proficiencies in individual weapons
|syntax = PROFICIENCIES
|detail = With this ability, you will find yourself able to specialize in specific weapons, such as
the longsword, broadsword, javelin, halberd, flail, and many others. In order to gain proficiency,
you must first seek out someone with the knowledge to teach you that specific weapon. Once you have
located such a person, you must then ensure that you have enough lessons to persuade the teacher to
teach you. If you do not have enough, the teacher will inform you how many you need.
The syntax that you will want to use to learn a weapon proficiency is:
LEARN PROFICIENCY IN <weapon name> FROM <whomever>
After you have given your lessons to the teacher, you must go out and practice with the weapon you
are seeking proficiency in. Simply go out and use the weapon as it was intended, and eventually you
will master it.
You can read HELP PROFICIENCIES for a list of teachers, where they are, and what weapons they teach.

|required =
}}
{{Anchor|WeaponProbe}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = WeaponProbe
|description = Learning of venoms or magical effects on weapons
|syntax = WEAPONPROBE <item> or WP <item>
|detail = Using this ability, you will be able to see the weapon stats of an item, along with any
venoms or magical effects that are present upon it. You can also check a weapon within a shop.
Reading over HELP WEAPONRY will tell you little more about each stat.
It will also work on armour and other minor items with effects upon them.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Technique}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Technique
|description = Visualise how a weapon would look in action
|syntax = WEAPONTECHNIQUE <weapon> or WTECH <weapon>
|detail = Ever pondered what a weapon might look like if you make use of it? These command will
show you exactly how it will look for each individual default attack the weapon can make. You can
also check a weapon within a shop.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Honing}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Honing
|description = Hard work and dedication
|syntax =
|detail = This ability is passive.
The benefits of hard work and dedication can only be appreciated by those who know no other path.
As such, those who possess no class skills will find that their ability to use a weapon has become
more honed.
It will provide the following benefits when using a basic weapon attack:
- Increased damage against adventurers.
- Increased damage against denizens.
- Increased limb damage when targeting a limb.
- Faster balance recovery when using a weapon.
- Can throw a weapon from one room further away.
|cooldown =
|target = Both players and NPCs
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Weaponbelts}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Weaponbelts
|description = Wield weapons with ease
|syntax = SECURE <item or weapon> [SCABBARD]
|detail = Weaponbelts are an ingenious Troll invention that let people wield secured items quickly
and with ease. By securing the item before you plan to use it, you can WIELD it without losing any
balance, providing you are proficient in the weapon.
Note that only one weaponbelt is wearable at once, and weaponbelts will only hold eight items.
Therefore you must be strategic if you plan on using multiple items.
You may also wear a single scabbard. This will be able to hold a single sword or dagger. Specify
the SECURE with SCABBARD appended to secure the desired weapon into a worn scabbard instead of
weaponbelt.
While it is generally used for weapons, it can hold other items too:
- Throwable Enchantments
- Bombs from Bombcrafting
- Archivist Codex
- Sickles for Herbalism
- Scalpels for Apothecary
- Divine Icons
- Artifact Bolas and Boomerangs
Items that are not weapons do not require any proficiency to wield without balance loss.

{{Anchor|Envenom}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Envenom
|description = Coat a weapon in venoms
|syntax = ENVENOM <weapon/LEFT/RIGHT> WITH <venom>        WIPE <weapon>
|detail = With this ability, you may layer venoms on an edged weapon. Each time that weapon hits
somebody, one venom will poison your opponent, and disappear from the weapon.
Venoms work on a last-on, first-off basis, so if you put xentio on a weapon, and then put voyria on,
the voyria would come off first, and the xentio second. You must possess a rag with the venom in
order to apply it to a weapon.
In order to get rid of the venoms on a weapon, simply WIPE <weapon>.
You can also in-line envenom your weapon as you attack. For example, SLASH <opponent> XENTIO will
slash them with xentio, providing you have a rag with the venom of course.

{{Anchor|Quickwield}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Quickwield
|description = Fluidly switch out your weapons in battle
|syntax = QUICKWIELD <LEFT/RIGHT> <weapon>
|detail =        QUICKWIELD BOTH <weapon> [weapon2]
If you already have something wielded in your hands, you can fluidly swap them out for another
weapon. If you are attempting to wield a two-handed weapon, or two new weapons at once, you need to
use QUICKWIELD BOTH.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Armaments}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Armaments
|description = Gauge the effectiveness of arms and armor at a glance
|syntax = WEAPONLIST [weapon] [IN <SHOP/ROOM/container>]        ARMORLIST [armor] [IN
<SHOP/ROOM/container>]
|detail = Your instruction with a myriad of weapons and armor has made you capable of identifying
their characteristics and workmanship. As such, you can see a full listing of stats at a glance,
along with variety of extra information.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Parrying}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Parrying
|description = The ability to parry attacks
|syntax = PARRY <body part> or PARRY NOTHING
|detail = This ability allows you to parry an attack aimed at one of your limbs, providing you
wield a weapon or item that allows you to do so. You can parry your head, torso, left or right arm,
and left or right leg.
You will be unable to parry if you become prone (see HELP PRONE). Being fallen is excluded from
this list.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Decapitate}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Decapitate
|description = Hack the head from a player's corpse
|syntax = DECAPITATE <corpse> and PIKE <head>
|detail = Provided you have an edged weapon in one of your hands, you will be able to decapitate a
corpse. You may then do whatever you like with the head, including buying a pike and then piking it
for all to see.
Note that heads, being organic matter, do not tend to stick around too long, and if put on a pike,
the pike will also decay away when the head does.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|Targeting}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Targeting
|description = Aiming your blows at specific body parts
|syntax = TARGET <body part> and TARGET NOTHING
|detail = With great accuracy, you are now capable of targeting specific body parts with your
weapon in the hope of dealing trauma and breaking them. You can target the head, the torso,
left/right arm, or the left/right leg.
It is also possible to in-line your limb choice when attacking. For example, typing SLASH
<opponent> LEFT LEG will strike their left leg if you have a capable sword.
Because this requires more precise timing on your part, the sheer damage you can do is reduced when
striking a body part.
See HELP LIMB DAMAGE for more information on this subject.
|cooldown =
|target =
|required =
}}
{{Anchor|ShieldStance}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = ShieldStance

{{Anchor|Throwing}}

|cooldown =
|target =

}}
{{Anchor|Archery}}
{{Skill_detail

  SHOOT <target> [type/venom]
  SWITCH <type>
Using a quiver:
  INSPECT QUIVER or IQ
  INQ <amount> <type> ARROWS
  OUTQ <amount> <type> ARROWS
Use a longbow to shoot someone in a line-of-sight location from you. First you must find yourself a
longbow, some arrows, and a quiver. Place the arrows you wish to use within your quiver using INQ,
and then while wielding your bow, you can SHOOT a target within line-of-sight of you. You can use
SWITCH to choose which of your arrows you will shoot by default.
In addition to the regular venoms, you may also use the sumac and loki venoms with a bow.
Note: While you may store enchanted arrows within your quiver, this skill does not grant the
ability to use them.
|cooldown =
|target =

{{Anchor|Bowstance}}

{{Anchor|Brainsmash}}
{{Skill_detail
|skill = Brainsmash
|description = Using a blunt weapon, smash your target's brain into pulp
|syntax = BRAINSMASH <target>
|detail = Much like behead, you can try to kill a prone opponent with a blunt weapon, should they
remain in a prone position after a few seconds. This action requires your full attention, if you
perform any actions during this time you will fail to brainsmash your target.
If your opponent remains in the same location as you, and you are not hindered in any manner, you
will destroy his head in a shower of brain matter and leave a pool of blood upon the ground.
