-This is how it appears on my warrior, I am unsure how to proceed with the quest at this point.
Gaining the Skill
I checked the Warrior's Guild in Palanthas fairly thoroughly and did not discover any hints, speech activated mprogs, or any other expected way to start a quest. Checking on OOC got me few responses, most from people who had no idea about the skill. Potentially useful (or misleading) comments are posted below:
- Lysathara OOCs 'umm i believe the quest and such is in place for clavers ;)'
- Lysathara OOCs 'yea well when they got 30k diamonds and 3 leaders that keep up on that kinda stuff... its to be expected'
- Loror OOCs 'I already have the skill.'
- Loror OOCs 'yeah Chislev Gave it to me'
Other Responses:
- Penumbra OOCs 'i don't think adv comb aware is in yet'
- Falkore OOCs 'anyone know where casters gets combat awareness'
