Weapon Technique is a maneuver system under the Player System Manager similar to Combat Maneuvers for warriors, rogues, and paladins. Unlike the other systems, Weapon Techniques are granted automatically when Weapon Skill requirements are met. The WEAPON verb provides access to this system.
Types
There are five types of skills available:
- Active Buff - Active Buffs are skills that must be activated via use of commands, and assist the user with either their attack or defense.
- Attack - Attack skills utilize and enhance the user's normal attack.
- Martial Stance - Martial Stances are a classification of skills that provide a significant "passive" benefit.
- Passive Buff - Passive Buffs are skills that are automatically active once learned, and assist the user with either their attack or defense.
- Setup - Setup skills are meant to disable a target, and may incur damage as a result of the skill's use.
WEAPON verb
The WEAPON verb is used to train in and activate Shield Specializations. The various skills can be trained via SHIELD LEARN. Skills may be unlearned via SHIELD UNLEARN, and the lists of skills to learn can be viewed via SHIELD LIST. SHIELD HELP {Specialization} provides detailed information on each of the skills.
