Weapon skills and abilities allow a character to equip and
use a weapon from it's weapon family. For example, having the Blades ability in
Hibernia allows you to use short swords, scimitars and bastard swords. But
remember, having the ability lets you use it, having the skill lets you train
and become better at it! Also, when training in weapon skills, different
classes receive different weapon techniques, called Combat Styles. The more
skill you have in a weapon, the more advanced Combat Styles you can perform.
