Melee

Combat, and fighting in general, is arguably the largest part of Frost Blades. Players can battle different monsters as well as each other in activities and the wilderness. Fighters buy the food from cooks, potions from herbalists as well as weapons and armour from smiths and crafters and so drive several markets in the Frost Blades economy. This guide is about melee combat, meaning to fight with weapons and armour hand to hand. This Guide includes; Attack, Strenght & Defence. When you are engaged in combat you will see your character using the wielded weapon (or just his or her fists and feet) to attack the opponent and vice versa. Damage inflicted on each other will be shown as splash numbers showing how much will be deducted from your life points. The amount of damage each combat participant has taken is indicated by a horizontal bar above their head. If your bar is entirely green you are not hurt; it will turn red as you take damage.

As you deal damage, you will also take damage, damage can be recovered by eating pieces of Food. As your character deals more damage, they recieve experience in these specificied skills, as the experience increases, your character's skill level will increase, your Combat level will also increase. A player's, monster's, or NPC's combat level indicates the difficulty in defeating them in combat.
