Fencing

Fencing grants the ability to use fast striking weapons.

• All fencing weapons, including two-handed weapons such as spears, can be poisoned using the Poisoning skill.

PvM: Fencing Weapon Special Attack

• Only works against creatures, not other players
• Players have a 10% chance of inflicting a Fencing Weapon Special Attack against creatures.
• This chance can be further increased via the Arms Lore Skill, Water Aspect Armor, or Mastery Chain Links.
  • The melee damage dealt on an attack that triggers a fencing special is increased by 50%
  • Cripples the target for 8-16 seconds (increases chance for target to be hit with attacks by 10%)
    • Cripple effect duration scales based on weapon speed (slower fencing weapons have longer effect duration) and creature difficulty

Training

• Fencing is trained through combat with a Fencing weapon equipped. See the Weapons Chart for a list of Fencing weapons.
• Up to 50.0 skill can be trained by an NPC weaponsmith.
• Skill gains for Fencing up to 70.0 are accelerated in the New Player Dungeon.
• 50-70 fight creatures in the New Player Dungeon.
• 70-100:
  • Method One:
  • Melee fight creatures in the world.
  • Method Two:
  • Purchase Wooden Training Kryss from any NPC provisioner vendor.
  • Use a 2nd account as a sparr dummy by attacking it with the character who is training.
  • Then toggle war/peace on the 2nd account dummy character.
    • Note: If training against another player, it is best to be in the same guild or else form a party where both members check "Flag Green to Party" in order to avoid being flagged as a criminal.
    • You will need a way to heal the second account character.
