Combat Maneuvers is the primary skill for [[SMR|SMRv2]] offense with physical maneuvers, including [[Weapon Technique]]s, [[Shield Specializations]], [[guild skill]]s and the maneuvers below. 1x is the baseline expected training for effective maneuver use. Further training provides diminishing returns, with 2x providing a 15% increase in effectiveness.
Training in this skill also boosts effectiveness of various [[guild skill]]s and combat maneuvers from the list below. Training in the skill also helps defend from the skill, which is why many [[pure]]s will pick up Disarm Weapon to prevent them from losing their [[Runestaff|runestaves]] or other defensive weapon. One rank in a skill trained in via the CM list below counts as 10 ranks in the skill, for the purposes of guild skill training. Therefore, a character that masters a skill via the CMAN system is treated as if they have 50 ranks, while a character that mastered the skill via their guild will be treated as if they have 63 ranks in the skill. There are many more skills available on the list below than those that are available as guild skills, and many skills do not even follow a progression like that listed above (i.e., [[Precision]] or Specialization).


Combat Maneuvers also provides SMRv2 defense against all maneuvers. Training in a particular maneuver also helps defend against that maneuver, which is why many [[pure]]s will pick up Disarm Weapon to prevent them from losing their [[Runestaff|runestaves]] or other defensive weapon.
⚫
The skills below can be trained in using CMAN points. A character earns 1 CMAN point for every rank they train in Combat Maneuvers, so a character with 150 ranks of Combat Maneuvers will have 150 CMAN points. Typically, it takes 20 or 30 CMAN points for a [[square]] to master a skill, but there are some exceptions. [[Enhancives]] do not provide CMAN points. As of August 2020, character level no longer limits how many points may be spent on a single skill. For [[semi]]s, CMAN skills require 50% more points to train in, while pures have to spend 100% more than a square.<section end=introduction />

Combat Maneuvers are skills with multiple facets and applications, including attack, defense and utility. Training grants access to the list of combat maneuver skills (also known as CMAN or CMLIST skills), boosts melee attack strength and provides defense versus most maneuver-type attacks.

Type Square Semi Pure
Profession Rogue Warrior Monk Bard Paladin Ranger Cleric Empath Savant Sorcerer Wizard
Max Ranks Per Level 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 - 1 1
Training Point Cost 4/4 4/3 5/3 8/4 5/4 6/4 10/8 12/8 - 12/8 12/8

Combat Maneuvers boosts physical attack strength (AS) by +1 for every 2 ranks of training. This bonus does not apply to attack spells which generate AS through the Spell Aiming skill.

Combat Maneuvers is the primary skill for SMRv2 offense with physical maneuvers, including Weapon Techniques, Shield Specializations, guild skills and the maneuvers below. 1x is the baseline expected training for effective maneuver use. Further training provides diminishing returns, with 2x providing a 15% increase in effectiveness.

Combat Maneuvers also provides SMRv2 defense against all maneuvers. Training in a particular maneuver also helps defend against that maneuver, which is why many pures will pick up Disarm Weapon to prevent them from losing their runestaves or other defensive weapon.

The skills below can be trained in using CMAN points. A character earns 1 CMAN point for every rank they train in Combat Maneuvers, so a character with 150 ranks of Combat Maneuvers will have 150 CMAN points. Typically, it takes 20 or 30 CMAN points for a square to master a skill, but there are some exceptions. Enhancives do not provide CMAN points. As of August 2020, character level no longer limits how many points may be spent on a single skill. As of the 2021 PSM3 update, skills costs are the same regardless of profession choice and no longer increase for semis and pures.

Combat Maneuver Factors

  • The biggest factor is the attacker's and defender's bonus in Combat Maneuvers.
  • Level difference plays a factor, and a difference of more than 10 levels has a major effect on the outcome.
  • Many injuries or even scars penalize a maneuver attempt. Limb wounds and scars are especially penalizing.
  • Encumbrance provides a penalty to any combat maneuver attempt.
  • Almost every maneuver takes the attacker's stance into account, and most also take the defender's stance into account.
  • Many maneuvers take the relative height and/or size of the attacker and defender into account. Some, like Bull Rush, are easier if the attacker is larger than the defender; others, like Hamstring, are easier for smaller characters to use against larger opponents.
  • Each rank of a given maneuver gives a character up to +15 to defend against that maneuver.
  • A stunned target has -10 to defend against any maneuver, which appears as a bonus for the attacker.


Encumbrance Penalty Formula

There is a one point penalty per one percent encumbered body weight.

Penalty = round up(encumbrance weight ÷ Body weight) × 100

Example

Character body weight = 200 lbs
Encumbrance weight = 23 lbs

Penalty: round up (23 ÷ 200) × 100 = 12

Armor Penalty

Heavier armor will negatively impact your ability to perform and dodge CMANs. The effects are highlighted in the following table based on Armor Sub Group (ASG)

ASG 1 2 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
CMAN Penalty 0 0 0 0 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 5 5 6 7 8 10

Additionally, There is also an additional penalty of 20 for each second of untrained RT Adder which stacks with the AP penalty. With 0 armor ranks the full plate RT Adder penalty is 240 (12 sec untrained RT) plus the action penalty of 10 for a total penalty of 250.
