[ICNRP (in character, non RP)] Skill-building duels

[Akantha]

With the new feature of weapon's skills going down without maintenance, I am hoping some of our citizens who are interested in keeping martial skills sharp or improving beyond 75% might wish to form a sort of sparring group. With this, we would know who is willing to duel, and contact them for practice. Is anyone interested in joining? Please post weapon proficiencies equal to or greater than 75% so we know what you wish to improve.

Weapon Proficiency:
Hand to Hand: 75%

I'm currently working on Staff as well, but I prefer to improve through training for now.

[Morghain]

I would be interested. Perhaps we should also mention which stat range we are in so that we do not end up with entirely unsuitable match ups?

Weapon Proficiency: Dagger: 16% Sword: 76% Staff: 75% Axe: 75% (With Way Bonus: 95%) Hand to Hand: 75%

stat range: 250-500

[Aithne]

Count me in for that sparring group.

Weapon Proficiency:

Dagger: 75%
Sword: 75%
Staff: 75%
Axe: 75%
Hand to Hand: 75%

I have duelled with a friend twice now.. I was wondering why there has not been any increase in my axe proficiency.

[Morghain]

I belive it may also have something to do with how difficult your opponant is. When I have fought people weaker or more equally skilled as me, nothing happened. But when I fought someone significantly stronger, my proficiency increased. I'm not sure whichskill range you fall into, Aithne but would you fancy an axe duel? Plain axes, basic clothes, no armour or extra accessories and to injury?

[Aithne]

Ahh. My friend is weaker than me in terms of proficiency. What I found funny is that in our very first duel to first blood, I ended up killing him

An axe duel sounds good. I am not armoured or have got any accessories on. I'm up for it.

[Morghain]

I shall strip off my extras and meet you at the duelling ground at sunrise Although should I feel bad about duelling you on your honeymoon? congratulations btw!

[Aithne]

Thank you

I would like to apologize for not showing up at sunrise, I had a wedding to attend, as you can see ^_^
[OOC: Apologies, school wouldn't let me get back home in time to accept your challenge before reset took place]

And don't worry about duelling me on my honeymoon. I have a brand new husband to nurse me back to health should I suffer any injuries ^_^ He did promise to be with me in sickness and in health!

Minerva pays a visit and looks at everyone.

This is an ooc thread in an RP thread since this is about IG mechanics. I'll rename the title as ooc and will treat everything in this thread as ooc as well.

Should you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message.

Thank you.

Minerva returns to join the discussion.

After consulting the Mages and Elder team, it has been deemed that this thread is ICNRP (in character, non RP). In other words, though there is no RP in this thread, everything here will be treated in-character.

If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message.

Apologies for the confusion.
