Class skill and spells #

Item Repair #

Class skill · free · usable in town

Choose a worn or carried item to repair it, for free, anywhere (also in town). Each repair step restores level to 2 × level − 1 durability but permanently takes max(1, maximum durability / (level + 9)) from the item's maximum. Steps repeat until the item is whole.

If the maximum durability reaches 0, the item falls apart.

The Warrior learns spells from books. Reading a book teaches its spell or raises it one level, up to 15, and each level makes the next book of that spell need 20% more Magic. Staves and scrolls cast spells too. See Spells.

Gear #

Every Warrior also starts with 100 gold in the purse.

On depth 9 lies the Fallen Champion. Searching the body gives a Warrior a magic Breast Plate.

Tips #

• Strength is his damage: the bonus is level × Strength / 100, and his chance of a double-damage blow equals his level (30% at level 30).
• He gains 2 life per point of Vitality, the most of any class (only the Necromancer matches it).
• Maces deal +50% damage to undead and half to animals; swords do the reverse. His spare Club is a mace.
• Item Repair costs nothing but shrinks the item's maximum durability. With Item wear off (the default), gear never wears out.
