The skill of Maiming is the central one for any Berserker. In it, the warrior learns how to properly use a longsword and a shield for both offense and defense.


Slash
Syntax:
BLADE SLASH <target> [toxin] 		This is the basic sword attack of the Berserker. It can be used in conjunction with another Maiming

attack.

When used against another player, you can optionally specify a toxin to envenom the blade with before attacking. This requires you to have a vial of that toxin and the Envenom ability.

Changelog:

{{{AbilityChangelog}}}


Combo
Syntax:
COMBO <list of attacks> <target> 		This ability allows you execute multiple attacks at once, within the same command. The attacks will be executed in the specified order against the chosen target, who can be a player or a mobile. Note that some attacks only work on players, not on mobiles.

If the attack supports inline envenoming, you may specify the toxin immediately after the command.

Attacks can only be combined in the following order: Blade attack -> Shield attack -> Warchant. Any of these can be omitted. Some attacks cannot be combined with another.

Examples:
COMBO SLASH SMASH SHOUT target
COMBO STRIKE <toxin> SMASH <rage modifier> SHOUT target

The individual attacks are each still subject to effects such as aeon or stupidity.

Changelog:

{{{AbilityChangelog}}}


Raze
Syntax:
BLADE/SHIELD RAZE <target> 		This attack uses the sword or the shield to strip an aura of rebounding or a magical shield from the target.

Syntax:

Changelog:

{{{AbilityChangelog}}}


Trip
Syntax:
SHIELD TRIP <target> 		Use your shield to trip your opponent to the ground.

This will prone a mobile, stopping it from attacking or moving for a short period of time.

Changelog:

{{{AbilityChangelog}}}


Posture
Syntax:
N/A 		You are now capable of effectively wielding heavier shields than what your strength would otherwise allow - your strength is considered to be higher by 2 for the purposes of determining penalties.

This ability is automatically in use.

Envenom
Syntax:
ENVENOM <weapon> WITH <toxin>
ENVENOM <amount> ARROWS WITH <toxin>
WIPE <weapon> 		With this ability, you may layer toxins on an edged weapon. Each time that weapon hits somebody, one toxin will poison your opponent, and disappear from the weapon. They work on a last-on, first-off basis, so if you put aspartame on a weapon, and then put cyanide on, the cyanide would come off first, and the aspartame second. You must have the selected toxin in a vial in your inventory. In order to get rid of the toxins on a weapon, simply WIPE <weapon>.
Changelog:

Strike
Syntax:
BLADE STRIKE <target> [toxin] 		This attack is similar to the Slash one. It causes more damage, but is somewhat slower.

SHIELD SMASH <target> 		A smash with the shield causes damage and inflicts one of the following afflictions - the first one that the target does not already have is given: nausea, clumsiness, weariness.

If the attack is used on balance (without a preceding blade attack), or when used on a target with less than 60% health, it does more damage and gives two afflictions at once.

Should the target already suffer from all these effects, the attack causes a special time-cured effect that increases the potency of the sensitivity affliction.
