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

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.
