Been a LONG time...

[Kafungus]

Okay, so I just reactivated my account after feeling nostalgic...

I have 30 days to figure out how I want this warrior to work. Last time I played him was after the brawling weapon introduction, think it was 2001-2.

35 days remain until the annual FIXSKILLS is to be granted, on 05/20/2011.

Your 30 day migration period will begin when you choose to degrade a skill.

So the question is, how bad are my stats and skills? I haven't played this game in almost 10 years; I need to relearn everything.

And what builds should I try over the next 30 days?

Personally I would drop the shield use, arcane symbols, ambush, survival, first aid, disarming traps, and lower swimming to 5. Train in two weapon combat. When you know both one handed edged and brawling you can use a hybrid weapon called katars, they are pretty boss. Also train in multi opponent combat. Once you get up to 30 and higher you can start focusing multiple strikes on a single opponent which is what katars are made for. I've seen a few warriors do this, Vilkea comes to mind and she is pretty awesome when she's dropping 8 swings on some mob. Give it a shot.

Edit: Katars can be bought at trade shops (shops.krakiipedia.com) or from Graktor's Cart in the Landing, go out the main gate, go one north, go path, order.

I think the best way to relearn the combat system would be sword and bored. (PUN intended, grammar nazis.) Good luck with the reintroduction.

Okay, after playing for 6 hours on my old warrior, I have come to several realizations.

1) MStrike is too awesome for words.
2) Swinging two katars in 5 seconds is righteous.
3) Swinging two katars at two enemies in 5 seconds is even more awesome.
4) Drew gives good advice.

Thanks much.

Nice, it's even more exciting when you get 30 ranks and can do 4 swings on a single creature in 5 seconds.
