1. # Nobody is out to kill you, don't walk into an enemy village's back yard and you won't be killed.2. # Only spiders do more damage here, lions and such are the same.3. # Your biggest problem will be hyenas, not BL as they have better things to do4. # You can catch up to peoples fighting to a reasonable point, there is a huge wall at 60 where it is very hard to get that .01 more fighting (killing two bears with sickles gives you .01 at 60)5. # You will not get to 70 fighting by shafting pigs. That will get you to 10 max.6. # Fight things around your level for opitmal skill7. # The forums is not where the battle takes place, that is where the idiots and people who are drawn into idiocy fight, the real warriors kill you, post logs and are done.8. # You do not need to train fighting 24/7, it helps sure, but not a requirement. Do what ever you want, let the fighters fight, you can do your smithing, carpentry as it all helps the town/warriors.9. # Horton does eat noobs, that is not a myth10. # Silron does not suck

; Battles- : A skirmish on an area with no guards, no token to drain, just WLvsBL warriors going at it. ; Raids- : A quick attack on a small village or homestead, pull the guards, drain the token, take what you can before the guards respawn.; Sieges- : An overwhelming force tries to take down a large village, Get on deed, take everything, give them nothing, drain token, harass them (through game mechanics) profit; Giggle fights- : You show up, taunt the people on deed and mess up their outside facilities, destroy their farms, cows etc.; 1v1- : obvious

1. # Numbers matter, 3 20 fighting with 20ql axes can take down a 60 fighter with appropriate weapon skill2. # Armor counts, If you dont have 5:1 numbers, don't bother engaging, you will die. Without armor you have no chance of hits glancing off and having your opponent do no damage to you.3. # The killing hit is a foot, leg or thigh shot, If you are hit in the foot, you are incredibly easy to zerg, as you will be outnumbered quickly.4. # Archers are very important, its painfully hard to get archery up, but shooting someone in the leg from a distance with a 50ql arrow is a killing blow, they also take care of alts and other people leading trains of animals into you. === Battles === Simple: The side with the most elites win. Elites are people who have been playing for a long time, have fighting so high that only other elites will catch up to them and have body stats and weapon skill to back it up. Numbers do matter, but not so much if you have 5 people with superior fighting to 10 people with minor fighting. The following formulas will help you: 5e vs 10n = 4e | 1e vs 10n = 8n | 5e vs 2e 8n= 2e 4n

=== Raids- done === Done by a medium to small sized force, one or two catapults and a couple of mauls. Due to the dumb update where you cannot spawn at allies deeds, it is very hard to defend your own homestead or small village. Have someone skilled in a catapult break the wall down (i have no idea how this is done) and make sure you have a cart to transport ammo (iron ore or copper is better, as they can repair walls with stone rockshards) Pull the guards by someone aggroing it, the tank attacking one when the guards are returning to deed and everyone else attack the guard that is pulled. Very easy to take out the guards, get on deed, drain, take what you can and leave. 

=== Sieges- === With the current playerbase, you must get everyone from your kingdom to do it correctly. You need superior numbers, many catapults and mauls. 2 people making bricks and repairing stone houses can do alot. Expect reinforcements coming, but they will take a while, but will be fully armed and armoured. Make sure the siege force is best possibly equipped. Pets are a plus, but take an awful long time if not bears. They secure the fact that reinforcements will do nothing, unless they have pets of their own. Fire iron and other ores at the walls, as the defending town can use rockshards to repair the walls. Try to attack from all directions, as that will make it harder to repair. If done correctly, a siege force will break through a large village within two hours. If the defending town only has one gatehouse, focus all your catapults on that one, lockpick it, pull the guards and kill the inside repairers, which will buy you precious time. Make sure to have one person harass the outside enviornment, cut down all their special trees, kill cattle etc. === Giggle Fights === You do not have the power to go on deed and fight the guards, so try and convince the opponent to come off deed by flattening his farms, messing with terraforming, raiding the mine etc. Chances of someone dying is small, unless some leads a train of animals into that attackers. The defenders can simply walk back into their gatehouse, which will trigger the guards on you if you are attacking. === 1v1 === It is a who has the most fighting and weapon skill, plus a bunch of small things.

 The tree: Aggresive beats normal, normal beats defensive, defensive beats aggressive Stamina My reasoning behind this. Aggresive will beat normal for the fact that you will get alot more hits on the normal person while they won't do enough damage to kill you, but will most likely wound you pretty bad if your skills are close and you are using axes (stamina does not matter much here). Normal beats defensive by blocking their slow hits and attacking at a good enough speed to lower the defensive persons stamina (defensive burns stamina faster)  Shields are good for when you want to outstam the person. Defensive will slaughter aggresive for obvious reasons, you can block alot of aggresives attacks while aggresive cannot take care of your blows effectivly, large axes have no chance against a defensive person with longswords. 

Minor Things: Update 040815:Fighting now affects stamina. Make sure to fight well rested or you will defend much worse. Which means if you are weak, you will not fight as well as 100% stamina. Luck matters, but cold hard skill is the main force. If your opponent has very weak armor, target his weakest spot, this will kill him much quicker. Giggle Fights: You do not have the power to go on deed and fight the guards, so try and convince the opponent to come off deed by flattening his farms, messing with terraforming, raiding the mine etc. Chances of someone dying is small, unless some leads a train of animals into that attackers. The defenders can simply walk back into their gatehouse, which will trigger the guards on you if you are attacking.

1.# Body control - your accuracy and dodge rate, block rate to raise: fight, smith and mine/wood cut2. # Mind speed - accuracy, dodge rate, parry rate to raise: Fight and yoyo3. # Overall body - how much of a beating you can take, helpful if you need to waddle to the safety of your group if you get hit in legs4.# Body stamina - For 1v1 and tanking guards

* Dual longswords for defensive* Normal fighters should be the maulmen, to take out plate and chain* Aggresive should use two large axes, or two longswords if you are scared of dying* Tank should use large shield and shortsword, you will have close to none DPS and should switch to dual longswords when fighting players not guards, defensive is a must.

any Any other combo is not reccomended, but a longsword + maul is good for the fighter who wants to be ready in all situations.

* Studded leather is best, rest is useless* Chain - its better then nothingplate * Plate - good for tanking guards, you will move very slow, very low dps.* Cloth - for insult to injury* No armor - consider yourself dead unless you have 5 more people with you against one.

Pets: * Trolls are best for pvp, but zombie spider > dominated troll. A troll is useful because it can dish out those high damage hits easily, but are a pain to dominate. Hard to kill, as the owner can pull it back and have it regen a 203 severe in 1 minute.* Spiders are found everywhere, and are useful for everything* Lava fiends are very threatening, and have normal dps.
