| Re: New Warrior but a little confused. Axe and Shield is good, Great Axe is even better though. You should be able to find both fairly cheap from an NPC. Starting on Marksmanship with a crossbow and bolts is a good idea as well.
EDIT: You won't be able to use a shield with the Great Axe since it's two handed, but Shield Break is such an awesome weaponskill (-40 evasion to the enemy) plus you get more of a STR and DEX bonus for using a 2 handed weapon. |
