'''Train your selected weapon skill''', the The easiest way to train your weapon skill is to simply go out and chop down alot of tree's with it. This will work until 20 weapon skill. Only bladed weapons apply for this method (as in no mauls, and the exception of a short sword), any other weapon must be trained through combat with other creatures.
'''Create your equipment''' The easiest and simplest armour type available to make in wurm is the cloth armour. Its light, and provides some protection but not a huge amount. It would be suitable as your first set but it would be advisable to move up to Leather Armour or Studded Leather Armour as soon as you can. You can generally imp cloth/leather armour to 20ql with 10 in the related skill.
