NAME wield - wield a weapon in your hands SYNOPSIS wield wield in right/left hand DESCRIPTION A weapon will only do you good if you wield it, ie. hold it in your hands to use it in combat. A weapon is just about anything that you can make use of to strike your opponent with, most commonly swords, maces or staffs. To read more about the different weapons, see 'help weapontypes'. In Kingdoms you are able to wield weapons both in your right and left hand. If you wear a shield though, it is automaticly placed upon your left hand, leaving only your right hand open to wield weapons in. Thus you cannot both wear shield and wield a twohanded weapon. Wielding two weapons at the same time, one in each hand, will heavily penalize your combat abilities if you are not highly skilled in the two_weapon skill. This skill is not available to all guilds though, since only certain guilds have learned how to master the ability to wield two weapons at the same time and fight effectively. See 'help unwield' on the command to drop your wielded weapon. SEE ALSO weapontypes, wear, two_weapon, unwield
