   Sorry if this sounds real noobish but I cant seem to find a weapon that will let me skill up my actual Piercing skill..  Everything I've been able to find uses the crushing skill but does piercing damage.  I probably dont need to max the Piercing skill but I'd like to just for the hell of it hehe!Can anyone point me in the right direction?/salute<div></div>

<P>theres a 2h spear of all things that is piercing, some junk loot, think its awakened scalelord spear.  There is no class restrictions on it, so we can use it.</P> <P>Other than that, the only other weapons i know of that we can use are the twin calamaties.</P> <P>I spent three nights grinding that out on green mobs...</P>

<P>Unless they've changed this since LU24  you are unable to  skill up  piercing or slashing.   It is all crushing with brawlers.  We can use piercing weapons but it works from our crushing skill.</P> <P>still counts as piercing though.</P>

<P>Notice the +Piercing and +Slashing skills that were added to our offensive and mixed stances?</P> <P>Equip something the TCs or Ancient Velium Claws and watch your attack rating plummet if your skills aren't maxed.</P> <P> </P>

That Ancient Velium crap isn't even worth refering to.I used Rav claw - slashing and that questable 1 hander from some ignoying quests in SS - piercing (cost 2cp when you are done with all the quests). I was bored and ya never know what the devs will do next, so I gottem up.<div></div><p>Message Edited by Thail on <span class=date_text>06-20-2006</span> <span class=time_text>05:49 AM</span>
