They have a good general grounding in the arts of fighting.}}<br /> <br /> ==Preferred Species==<br /> [[Mountain Dwarf]], [[Minotaur]], [[Gargoyle]], [[Troll]], [[Armataur]], [[Revenant]], and [[Formicid]] are the recommended races if you pick a Fighter Background.<br /> <br /> ==Starting Equipment==<br /> Some [[species]] may receive different items based on their unique restrictions.<br /> *+0 [[weapon of choice]] ([[rapier]], [[flail]], [[war axe]], [[trident]], [[long sword]], or [[unarmed]])<br /> **[[Formicid]]s can choose to receive a [[quarterstaff]] (as it is one-handed to them).<br /> *+0 [[scale mail]]<br /> *+0 [[buckler]]<br /> *2 [[Potion of might|potions of might]]<br /> <br /> ==Starting Skills and Stats==<br /> Adjusted for your species&#039; aptitudes:<br /> *[[Fighting]]: 3<br /> *Chosen Weapon&#039;s Skill: 2<br /> *[[Armour (skill)|Armour]]: 3<br /> *[[Shields (skill)|Shields]]: 3<br /> <br /> Choosing Fighter adds 8 to your starting [[Strength]] and 4 to your starting [[Dexterity]].<br /> <br /> ==Strategy==<br /> While Fighters may seem weak or &quot;generic&quot; compared to the more exotic [[backgrounds]], remember that your background is only your starting package. Unlike, say, [[Berserker]]s, Fighters are free to choose any [[god]] they like, like all those you cannot start the game with!<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> *Prior to [[0.33]], fighters started with only one potion of might.<br /> *Fighters were unchanged in the mostly-global background buff of [[0.29]] (they already had a potion of might).<br /> *Prior to [[0.28]], fighters started with a [[kite shield]] instead of a [[buckler]].<br /> *Prior to [[0.27]], [[kobold]]s (and [[halfling]]s) started with a kite shield instead of a buckler.<br /> *Prior to [[0.14]], fighters did not start with a [[potion of might]] and most starting weapons were of a lower tier: [[short sword]] instead of [[cutlass]], [[mace]] instead of [[flail]], [[hand axe]] instead of [[war axe]], and [[falchion]] instead of [[long sword]]. They also started with 20 [[gold]].<br /> <br /> {{backgrounds}}<br /> [[Category:Backgrounds]]</div>
