New recruit reporting

[Laura Isaias]

Greetings,

I am honoured to be accepted as a trial member in the ranks of the Duchy. I look forward to using my sword and bow in the service of Wessex.



(Hello everyone,

I'm happy to be part of Wessex, and can't wait for the moment when I can order and join you all in Darkfall! I'm from Belgium, and was a beta tester for a week. I'm a guy so my real name is not Laura, you wouldn't be able to pronounce the original (Laurent), but Lawrence is what I go by when talking to english speakers.

My favourite weapons in beta were knives, but since they are not commonly dropped by monsters at all, and two-handers seem to rule the battlefield, I will specialise in Greatswords. Oh, and I'm playing a Mirdain by the way.

I have one question about the next step in my career; when joining the military, is there a real difference between being a footman, a bowman or a seaman? Or is there only a roleplay difference?)



Signed,

Laura Isaias

footman and bowman have practical differences - seaman isn't really relevant to the duchy anymore since we're land-locked.

If you like knives - I can make you some, though - 2 handers seem to be better choice for PVP - knives keep a lower profile are good dps for pve.

[Laura Isaias]

Thank you. Does this mean applying as a seaman is no longer possible, or that I can apply as a seaman, but effectively function as a footman?

edit: Thank you for your offer, but I think I wouldn't want to be a burden on the clan relying on my weapons being delivered. Still, I like the uniqueness knives give you as they are very underused. I'll think about it.

Thank you,
Laura Isaias

The navy doesn't exist any more as far as i know, so there are no permanent naval positions.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up.
