Name
Name of the currently selected weapon.
Skill or Experience Needed
This is the level of skill needed to use the weapon. If Rynn’s skill level is below
that required for the weapon, the text appears in black type. Bows will require a
minimum Archer skill level. Armor and shields require a minimum Experience
level, and all other weapons require a minimum Melee skill level.
Damage
This is the damage level the selected weapon can inflict. Damage is measured
from 1– 40. AP indicates whether a weapon is armor piercing. AP weapons inflict
full damage on armored opponents.
Durability
As Rynn uses a weapon, its durability is reduced. The number on the left is
durability remaining. The number on the right is the maximum durability
of the weapon. If the weapon wears out, it becomes unusable and must be
repaired. Armor cannot be repaired once it has worn out. While using a bow
and arrow, this rating tells the number of arrows remaining.
Speed
Lightweight weapons are easy to handle and fast. Heavier weapons are
harder to swing and take more time to deliver multiple blows, but usually
do more damage.
Price/Sell/Repair
The Price/Sell/Repair listing appears when you are dealing with a shopkeeper
and the item is available for sale. To see if you have the gold to purchase the
selected item, look at your gold account at the lower right of the menu. Press
the √ button to purchase the selected item. You may also sell items in your
inventory using the same procedure if the item indicates a “Sell” price instead
of just “Price.” Press the Ω button to sell the selected item. Weapons may be
repaired from within a store for the price indicated after the “Repair” label.
Press the ≈ button to repair the selected item.
