Question Lord : Dual Weapons???

On page 39 of the user manual under Appendix B: Character Classes its states that a Lords Learning Bonuses are Weapon,armor,and shield skills and Addditional Skills/Heraldry are Medium Dual Weapons;Heavy Armor;Heavy Shield and Inflict Wounds hearldry.
So anyways i'm a Lord and i can't dual wield at all! Yes i made sure it was medium weapons i was using. So I'm kinda confused, hope they do something about this in an upcomming patch. Thanks for reading.

You will need to learn the skill first as you don't get it automatically.

If I remember correctly you need to have a medium weapon skill of 3 (5?) first before you can learn the skill. Similarly in order to learn medium dual weapon, you have to have learned light dual weapons up to level 3 first!

I think he looks like a lean mean fighting machine :-) In other words he should be a very good Fighter.

I think it may be a Typo in the Handbook. As far as I know only the Marauder Class (Fighter) can use Dual-Weapons.

The information in the handbook, religiously copied and not checked by GameBanshee is incorrect. A character must get the light duel weapon skill before proceeding to medium duel weapons. Only Maruaders and Samurai get light duel wield. Only Deathlords get medium duel wield. There are apparently some problems with equipping weapons in the offhand too. I've seen this firsthand with light duel and others have reported it with medium duel.

So, sorry dude, looks like you must stick what you've got.

BTW, how did you get to tier 3 at level 13?

Well Frodo1 it's quite simple really, I just did the fighter guild quests really fast they are simple you know. plus i have alot of gaming experience in rpg's such as this one. You shoulda seen me do ulm castle at lvl 5 that was a pain in the butt! I was a knight at lvl 7 after i did Ulm. i went in as a plain fighter. Hope that helps.

If someone tells me how to make an in-game screenshot, I will show you. I tried the "PrintSCrn" button but apparently that doesn't work or, if it does where is the Pic?

Here's how u do it. When you are in-game hit the print screen button then alt or exit the game. Go into an art program such as paint or photoshop (I used photoshop6) or if u have a scanner, the art program that came with that should work too. Just paste it, then reset the image size until it reaches the upload max. Same goes with your avatar if want to have one.

Thanks Axis,

I did partially go for the Samurai Armour even though I don't follow the Path but, the Strike/Parry Bonuses are pretty useful.
