Wrestling

Wrestling is the skill in Ultima Online which allows a player to fight empty handed. It therefore is a favourite amongst mages, who have penalties on weapon usage, and can use it while still holding their spellbook.

The skill determines the frequency of attacks and damage dealt. At 70 skill, the player can Disarm an opponent and at 90 Paralyzing Blow is added. Tactics is needed as well.

Training
Training is the same for all weapon classes, even for unarmed combat. First, buy training from a Dimethro The Wrestling Instructor in New Haven for 40 points. After that, only real battle leads to improvement. Therefore, here are the best battlegrounds for the varying skill levels.

Some places exist where training can be purchased without much danger:


 * Jhelom pits, hire a 6gp wrestling NPC and train up to 65, next hire a 8gp wrestler NPC and train to 80-85.
 * After that, one can summon a daemon to wrestle to legendary.
