The skill Unarmed Combat allows you to punch things. While this is a weak attack, with high strength, and many points in Unarmed Combat, it can be deadly. Since you don't need to place skills in Melee Combat to increase your chance to hit, it's a cheaper form of fighting.

A higher unarmed combat skill increases the effectiveness of your most basic defensive maneouver, "Dodge". For very new characters an unarmed combat skill of 10 or better can be a lifesaver while learning to hunt.

Enables the use of "Punch", "Slide!", "Jump!" and "Charge!"

Punch damage is 50 * sqrt(str / 10).

History and Legends

A notable character that used Unarmed Combat was Tubai. He was the first to punch a bear to death. After seeing this feat, many followed in suit.

Another epic story is when the two highly powerful characters Rift and Raephire fought. Rift was able to kill Raephire by strangling him, which is another unarmed combat attack.

In-Game Text

"Unarmed combat is the skill of fighting without crutches."

Unarmed combat is the skill of fighting without the aid of a weapon. The body can, through training, become a formidable weapon in and of its own.
