Yes, been posted before. Rather than practicing swinging a weapon, it would be better to go 1 hander and learn a martial art that specializes in takedowns, because that's all that really matters in that sport.

I remember running for my life.

It's one of my most useful techniques, even to this day.

1.) The first time I played, I climbed up a ladder on siege in my linen tunic with a yellow practice shield + hatchet to get spammed to death by a 2her in a kuyak. I had no idea what was going on the whole time.

2.) It took me 2 weeks to get my first legitimate 1v1 kill in melee as a 21/18 2her (nodachi with the full red samurai armor).

Worst admin ever, horrible person, rude in chat, griefs in game, threatens with kicks and bans if you don't praise him in his admin thread, doesn't worship the goat, and worst of all, uses a crossbow, I suggest instant removal of admin rights and crucifixion.

Now that is a friend of mine and not myself, but it rings very true all the same. Horribly frustrating business this game is.

As for myself my first few rounds were in siege, I had a scythe and stones. I recall elindor and red death treating my person with particular violence. I was hooked immediately of course.

Three practice shields and a club, trying to figure out the best way to suck up all the xp and gold my teammates were dropping before I got run over by a horse and instakilled.

So I quit because I was a loser and came back a year later, and everything had changed.

It was back then when the Antarian Empire was active and ran around in their shiny tincan Armors and Flamberges. I was playing with my Native buddies and they told me: "youll never become this big" :D

Haha, that's pretty bad :D. I had those 3 shields to be safe from Gnjus and his Mercs... Just to be alive long enough to gain xp and proximity bonus :P

I still remember my first battles in cRPG, that Sea Raider map from the native singelplayer map and a big open field with a river in it. I remember going for mostly STR a hammer and a shortbow like I guess most of us had some 2hander and a shitty bow back then

went to native to practice and got banned on one server for calling the admin a bundle of sticks, the dude was pretty good tho, bet he still plays his name was Lisen(i think) or lesin? anyhow, something like that :D and I raged the chat full cause I couldn't block and he chambered me and I was like "you fucking bundle of sticks cheater you cheat my attack with your own attack"
and thus i returned to c-rpg to humbly ask for help instead of calling everyone cheater.

good fun i had, am still banned there to this day. :D

I don't really get why people think being a newbie is frustrating.
When I started playing, I was so amazed by this mode and by everything I saw around that I didn't care much about how often I die. Watching other guys play was no less entertaining.

It's much more frustrating now, when I fail in easy situations even though I played this for more than a year.  :)
