Bug Slapper/Swatter...

[Anemathis]

Personally, I would absolutely LOVE to see a crappy damage and extremely fast 1hb (and other skills) added to SoD. I think it would be a really good and easy way for those casters that never get the chance to skill up! And to eliminate from constant use, make it a No Rent item that must be purchased from a "Healer-Like" NPC. The player can then use the weapon to skill up and it disappears after logout. I would really love to see a Fly or Bug swatter :dance:. Something with little to no damage at all, useless for hunting, just skill up (e.g. 1dmg 5dly). And perhaps add a skill-up mod to its specific weapon type. That may be going too far tho... I know that as a Shaman (at least right now) I don't get the chance to hit the mobs as much as I would like to in order to skill up. I would also like to add that most players don't have the money to spend 5pp+ per skill point on melee GM training.

Anyway, sorry I rambled on a bit there

Thanks for reading!

Not sure on some of the weapon types but there are atleast 3 very fast and somewhat obtainable items for this.

I dont know what your doing as a shaman but I have ample opportunities to be hitting things on pretty much all of my played characters, you also have haste for yourself. If you have someone else taking the hits for you it should not take to long to max out your attack skill.

Fast weapons do not let you skillup faster. Skill-up chance scales with delay.

That must be new then. I can remember using the 3/9 and 2/7 daggers and maxing piercing from 0 in a day or so. But it took me 4 levels to get the same amount of skill ups with 40-delay 2hb.
