== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Overview==
'''Sword''' is typically one of the first combat skills a new player finds, along with [[Unarmed]]. Predictably, it requires a sword to be equipped in your main hand. Sword focuses on damage and rage reduction, with a side of armor shred. A well-geared swordsman can completely block a monster from using Rage attacks!
[[Calligraphy]] serves as the secondary skill for Sword, and provides various sword combos and special insights.
=== In-Game Description ===
Expertise with swords, rapiers, and the like. Swords are very damaging, and can reduce an opponent's Rage.
=== Training {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}}===<!-- A list of methods to learn and level the skill -->* New players learn/obtain Sword by picking up the starting backpack on [[Anagoge]]* [[Nelson Ballard]] teaches Flashing Strike 1-4 and Precision Pierce 1-4* [[Malvol]] teaches Decapitate 1-4, Thrusting Blade 1-4, and Heart Piercer 1-4* [[Janet Lews]] will unlock levels 51-60, 61-70, and teaches level 51+ abilities* [[Pegast]] will unlock levels 71-80, and teaches level 71+ abilities'''* Levels 81-90 are unlocked by [[Emersil the Ever-Gloating]] deep beneath [[Povus]]. == Connected Skills ======= Sub-Skills: =====* None===== Secondary Skills: =====* [[Calligraphy]]: Calligraphy is Sword''' s secondary skill. Every time you level Calligraphy, you will learn a new recipe. Performing these recipes will give you a combo: if you execute that combo, it will have some extra effect. For example, the first recipe is a "Pain: If you execute SwordSlash + SwordSlash + ManyCuts in that order, the final step deals 5 extra damage." Some recipes have passive insights that will be applied for the duration - Pain+ increases all your Direct Slashing damage by 1.: The duration of Calligraphy effects can be extended by performing them on Calligraphy Benches, learned through [[Carpentry]].===== Related Skills: =====* None===== Synergy Levels: =====Bonus [[Synergy Levels]] for [[Sword]] can be obtained from the following skills and levels::; [[Bladesmithing]]:: Level 25, and Level 50, and Level 75:; [[Calligraphy]]:: Level 25, and Level 50, and Level 75:; [[Goblinese]]:: Level 15, and Level 35:; [[Hoplology]]:: Level 40:; [[Knife Fighting]]::CategoryLevel 42:Combat Skills|combat skill; [[Orcish]] :: Level 35 {{:{{msg:BASEPAGENAME}}/Abilities}} == {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Mechanics ===== Weapons ===<dpl> category = Items/Sword reset = categories columns = 3 mode = userformat format = ,\n* {{Item|%PAGE%}},, allowcachedresults=true</dpl>=== Equipment===<!-- Special equipment that is received very early in intended to be used by the tutorialskill goes here, after looting including belts. -->{{belt|Belt of the body Swordsman}} increases Base Damage dealt with Sword by 8%.

{{belt|Belt of the Gladiator}} increases damage dealt with Sword damage is actually quite good, the main hurdle to get over is to find ways to manage the Power Cost of abilities (ed: it may and [[Psychology]] combat skills by 6%.
