Q: I have rolled a berserker and have 2 items on from TOA that add +3 to all melee skills. However, I have NO pluses to my Left Axe ability. Why is Left Axe not considered a melee skill?
A: From the Item Mistress: ) The Melee Skill All bonus is intended to increase a weapon skill when training in one usually excludes the others. For example, players are unlikely to be trained in both Sword and Axe and therefore will really only receive an effective bonus for one skill. However, training in Axe does not preclude training in Left Axe or Parry, since the player is likely to use both or all at once. If we had included any of the dual wield skills, we would have been giving those players a double bonus. A player trained in Left Axe always has another weapon trained, so increasing both was not a viable option.)
