Hand-To-Hand Combat In W101

I was just thinking, wouldn't it be something, if we could find an enemy hand-to-hand as well? It kind of makes sense, too -- since some of our weapons are swords, axes, hammers, etc.

It would be great, if we could engage an enemy directly with a sword or axe.

You approach an enemy, and you are given the option of Wizard's Duel or Hand-To-Hand, if you have a bladed weapon.

Once it starts, it's just you and that other enemy, until someone wins. If you have a sword, axe, etc, you can directly engage any enemy that is similarly armed.

Otherwise, why do we have anything other than wands and staffs?

um... no, this is WIZARD101, not hand2handcombat101
the point of the game is to use MAGIC, hand to hand would most likely distroy that purpose

I for one, think it's a great idea. :?

That is not the point of this game. If you want that go to WOW or something

If not, then they ought to remove the bladed weapons.

It's stupid to have them, if we cannot use them as they are meant to be used, and a tease. There are some really awesome bladed weapons, and they cannot be used as anything other than another kind of wand?

It's silly.

How many people here would actually like to USE their Valor Swords, for example, instead of just waving them at the enemy, like you don't know what a sword is for?

The bladed weapons should be more than just eye candy.

And a hand-to-hand thing would be set up to have all its own magical rules and stuff. It could be just as magical as a regular duel.

We got to think outside the box.

You do, you swip at them (when using the cards from them) and the magic creates an air slice
