training weapons

[Guest zev]

Can anyone give me some tips on how to train weapons better? Specifically third/fourth attack. Right now I just dual prac weapons and sit at the minotaurs for days on end. There has got to be a better/faster way I haven't though of. Right now I'm trying to train in the low 30s. Would it be better to wait until 41? 50?

I rarely get involved in pk pre 50 anyhow, but I'm worried I'd condeath from being jumped constantly trying to train weapons at 50. I hate training, and rarely pay much attention to the screen while I am. I almost always end up with a few deaths pre-50 from being killed while training.

well one way that I did it was get some weapons that are elemental based go to a mob that is immune to it and fight. You still attack it and will train it as well but at the same time wont kill it so you can keep fighting and only really reason to flee is to rest/eat and since it seems you are a warrior you wont get hit that much.

Hope this helps.

Weapons are the skills named after weapons... i.e. staff, sword, polearm, etc. Third and fourth attack are skills that give you that number of attacks per round. Mastering weapons is something you'll generally need to actually do through training... third and fourth attack will just go up as you rank. Unless you really want to spend a ridiculous amount of time sitting at low ranks fighting mobs, just pinn. It'll go up the last bits as you fight and gather eq.
