Melee

Getting started

Start with hoglets near town; carry food and choose enemies you can handle.

Stronger weapons give each successful hit more power. The Smith sells gear; Smithing lets you make it.

Why train it?

More Melee improves weapon damage. Your weapon and character level matter too.

Sell spare loot and supplies; keep equipment and food you need. Walking and combat skills help expeditions rather than paying coins directly.

Maximum level: 99. Open Skills in the game to see your current XP and next goal.
