Subject: Re: Piercing or blunt? (Q about weapon skill)


I used to try to max my piercing and 2h staff until lv 8, when i lost my
snake fang to death bug. I try it again at a 12 lv and i tryed to max it
again. IT DONT MOVE i lost hours fighting a blue yellow and even red when
some group leave me to try and nothing i never get any advance anymore ?? i
also get one cracked staff but with skill 0 i never got any advance. so now
i have 2h blunt at 36 and dagger at 20 1h blunt at 0. and i dont have any
wish to invest a skill points in this :)
