Knives?

[Erlan]

Hello!

While peeking about the Classes thread, I noticed that Thieves and Assassins both had access to swords(and bows, in the case of Assassins), but not knives. Have knives been, for lack of a better term, abolished, or were swords perhaps made into an umbrella group for all similar bladed weapons?

I was thinking of making a Thief, but if knives are unavailable I may need to reconsider how I approach the character creation bit. What can I say? I like the little, pointy things. In certain characters' hands, they just feel so right.

Knives have indeed been put under the umbrella, so to speak, of swords.

This allows thieves and assassins to use swords if they want, making them more able in open combat, but if you want to RP your character to only use smaller daggers and whatnot, you are perfectly able to. Consider all normal weapon tiers and subsets to still apply.

Ah, alright. Thank you very much for the prompt reply!
