==Fighter Skills==
+
==Class Caps==
===Fighter Weapon Skills===
+
On each server there is a class skill cap for humans and non-humans. It is different on each server and utilized to multi-class a character for different combinations depending on what the player chooses.
To become a lethal fighting machine, a fighter must first develop weapon skills. The higher the weapon skill, the higher the attack strength will be when a weapon of that type is wielded and the more damage it will inflict.
+
  
There are four fighter-based weapons:
+
===Regular Server (Reg)===
 +
*Human Starting Maximum: 150% (up to 200% via Versatility Shrine)
 +
*Non-Human Starting Maximum: 125% (up to 200% via Versatility Shrine)
  
'''Axes'''
+
===Player Death Server (PD)===
*Damage Type: Slashing
+
*Human Starting Maximum: 150% (up to 200% via /remort command at Level 75)
*Stat Dependent Damage Optimisation: 75% str / 25% dex
+
*Non-Human Starting Maximum: 125% (up to 175%% via /remort command at Level 75)
*Special Rage Attack: CLEAVE - temporarily reduces the target's AS, DEF and MR, and also causes the target to bleed at a rate of 5% HP for 5 seconds (for a cumulative total of 25% HP). (Note that the target will not be able to heal while bleeding, though the bleeding itself will not kill the target.)
+
  
'''Longswords'''
+
===No-Grind Server (NG)===
*Damage Type: Slashing
+
*Humans Starting Maximum Skill Cap: 425%
*Stat Dependent Damage Optimisation: 50% str / 50% dex
+
*Non-Human Starting Maximum Skill Cap: 350%
*Special Rage Attack: FLURRY - an instantaneous burst of 3-5 hits that will randomly hit targets adjacent to you.
+
 
+
'''Maces'''
+
*Damage Type: bludgeoning
+
*Stat Dependent Damage Optimisation: 90% str / 10% dex
+
*Special Rage Attack: THUNDERCLAP - the target and targets in adjacent squares all suffer a shockwave that confuses them.
+
 
+
'''Polearms'''
+
*Damage Type: Slashing (mostly)
+
*Stat Dependent Damage Optimisation: 90% str / 10% dex
+
*Special Rage Attack: BLOODBOLT - sends a non-magical bolt of chain lightning through the target and on to other nearby targets. (Note that this bolt with thus effect even magic-immune targets.)
+
 
+
Note: A minimum of 90% in a weapon skill and 100% rage is required in order to execute a special rage attack with a weapon matching that skill type. For further details on special rage attacks, refer to:
+
[[Combat#Special_Rage_Attacks|Special Rage Attacks]]
+
 
+
And for a complete list of the various weapons availble as well as their respective weapon types, refer to: [[Items#Weapon_types|Weapon Types]]
+
 
+
===Tactics Skill===
+
The tactics skill gives a fighter an additional boost to Attack Strength and Defence. It increases when attacking with any fighter weapon or while Unarmed.
+
 
+
===Block Skill===
+
With a shield readied, a character will automatically attempt to block hits that are taken in the direction he or she is facing. The chance to successfully block an attack is based on the fighter's block skill as well as the type of shield used.
+
 
+
===All Armor Types===
+
The figher is the only class that can reap the full benefits of all 4 grades of armour: unarmed, light, medium and heavy. Essentially, gaining defence from light, medium or heavy armour is subject to having skill points in fighter. Specifically, if your highest fighter skill is X%, then you will only gain X% of the total defence afforded by light, medium or heavy armour.
+
 
+
So for example, if your highest fighter skill is 50%, and you are wearing 10 defense worth of light, medium or heavy armour, then you would only gain 10 * 50% = 5 defense.
+

+
Please refer to the [[Priest]] manual page.
A priest is able to use maces that have been blessed as proficiently as a fighter can use normal maces. Thus, via the blessed maces skill, a priest gains all the same abilities as a fighter would when using the mace skill.
+
 
+
Note: the specific weapon type a priest must wield is "blessed mace" and not just "maces".
+
 
+
For details on the mace skill, refer to Maces in the [[Class_Skills#Fighter_Weapon_Skillss|Fighter Weapon Skills]] Section above.

*Special Attack: SLICE AND DICE - an instantaneous burst of 3 hits on the target.
+
 
+
'''Foils'''
+
*Damage Type: Piercing
+
*Stat Dependent Damage Optimisation: 0% str / 100% dex
+
*Special Attack: DISARM - against monsters, this will cause melee monsters to have their Attack Strength halved and magic using monsters to be 50% less likely to cast for 5 seconds, while against other players this causes the target's weapon to become unequipped, with the target not being able to re-equip for 5 seconds.
+
 
+
'''Ranged'''
+
*Damage Type: Piercing (with bows and crossbows) and Bludgeoning (with slings)
+
*Stat Dependent Damage Optimisation: 25% str / 75% dex
+
*Special Attack: POINT BLANK HEADSHOT - inflicts extra damage and causes the target to bleed at a rate of 5% HP for 5 seconds (for a cumulative total of 25% HP). (Note that the target will not be able to heal while bleeding, though the bleeding itself will not kill the target.)
+
 
+
Note: A minimum of 90% in a weapon skill and 100% rage is required in order to execute a special rage attack with a weapon matching that skill type. For further details on special rage attacks, refer to:

+
 
+
And for a complete list of the various weapons availble as well as their respective weapon types, refer to:
+
[[Items#Weapon_types|Weapon Types]]
+
 
+
===Lockpicking===
+
With the use of lockpicks (available from provisioners), this skill allows rogues to unlock doors and chests.
+
 
+
Depending on your skill, a lock may be too difficult to unlock. However, with practice, almost no lock can stand between a rogue and whatever is beyond said lock.
+
 
+
Lockpicks also have a high tendency to break, so it is recommended that a ample supply are handy when off "exploring"
+
 
+
Note that the shortcut key to use lockpicks is: '''j''' + dir.
+
 
+
===Trap Detect and Disarm===
+
Many chests, locked or not, may also trapped. By Using the search function (i.e., '''s'''+dir) a rogue will attempt to examine a chest for a trap. The trap (if present), may be detect by a rogue if he or she has sufficient skill.
+
 
+
Traps may also be present on the ground. And as with chests, searching the ground may show up a trap if one is present.
+
 
+
In order to disarm a trap, use a probe (also available from provisioners) on the trap by using the command: shift+'''j'''+dir
+
 
+
===Stealth===
+
Stealth is the art of moving silently and without being noticed. You can attempt to first hide by pressing '''H''', then moving while hidden. Success in either hiding or moving while hiding will improve your stealth.
+
  
Once hidden, you can attempt to backstab. You must have a shortsword or dagger equipped to pull off a backstab. Backstabbing success is determined by your stealth skill, the target's level, and for player targets, the lightness of their armour. It's very hard to BS a player wearing plate armour, for example.
+
==Necromancer Skills==
 +
Please refer to the [[Necromancer]] manual page.
  
Note:
+
==Druid Skills==
*The chances of hiding and moving stealthily are greatly reduced when wearing medium and heavy armour.
+
Please refer to the [[Druid]] manual page.
*You cannot hide when there are players, monsters or NPCs around which can see you, or if you have a light source.
+
  
===Light Armor===
 
Just as the fighter is able to fully benefit from all forms of armour, so too can a rogue benefit from light armour. Essentially, gaining defence from light armour is subject to having skill points in rogue (or fighter). Specifically, if your highest rogue skill is X%, then you will only gain X% of the total defence afforded by light armour.
 
  
So for example, if your highest rogue skill is 50%, and you are wearing 4 defense worth of light armour, then you would only gain 4 * 50% = 2 defense.
 
  
And for a complete list of the various armour availble as well as their respective armour types, refer to:
