In the end, Steven chose the spear as the starting weapon, because Kezan, the warrior who used the spear in this commissioned mission, had a bye. Although the sword warrior can also fight in place of the spearman, it is best to have the spearman configuration.
But he also carries a fixed blade, and Nathan gives him the freedom to decide which weapon to use in combat.
Steven did not have a spear, so Nathan specially equipped him with a spear and lent it to him.
Steven was familiar with the characteristics and fighting methods of this spear at the training ground in the afternoon. Kezan explained the key points and precautions when fighting with the spear from time to time. He praised Steven's choice and thought he was the same.
, we rely on our brains to fight.
This spear is the standard weapon used by the mercenary group when fighting against monsters. The total length is 3 meters. The spear head is made of fine steel with a ribbed triangular tip. The length of the spear head alone is almost 35 centimeters. The spear handle is made of vines and willows.
Specially made from lower branches, this wooden pole is not only tough and dense, but also has a certain degree of elasticity and will not break easily.
The hunting bow used by the mercenary group is made of bow arms made from high branches of willow trees. It is characterized by better elasticity and toughness, and is suitable for making various bows and crossbows.
Later in the afternoon, two outsiders were already in place. One of them was a carriage driver, responsible for driving the carriage and taking care of the horses of all operatives. The other was a cook. In addition to cooking, he also had to carry items and other chores, because
This mission will not take too long, so we only hired two outsiders. They are all acquaintances who are used to working with the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group.
Steven signed a temporary employment contract with Ms. Lei Lisa of the Internal Affairs Department together with two outside workers. Steven is also counted as a outside worker. Their remuneration is a basic salary of 10 silver francs per person plus a maximum bonus of 20 silver francs for task completion.
Yinlang.
The basic remuneration for the mercenary group to accept this commission is 100 silver lang. Even if the task is not completed, the employer needs to pay the fee. If you kill and bring back the body of the monster, you can get 300 silver lang. In addition, if you obtain the missing hunter
There will be additional bonuses for clues, and the amount will be negotiated separately with the employer.
As a short-distance mission, the reward is already very generous!
Not to mention that the corpses of the captured monsters belong to the mercenary group! This is truly huge wealth!
The pelts of Warcraft can be sold for high prices, and even the meat of Warcraft, many people are willing to pay high prices for it! The real profit of the mercenary group actually comes from the Warcraft itself! The commission for task entrustment is only the cost of the mercenary group.
Steven was also very satisfied with the fact that he could get up to 20 silver francs, which was much more than hunting ordinary animals to sell their skins and meat! He was satisfied with his choice.
Soon the afternoon was coming to an end, and with the help of Kezan, Steven completely mastered the fighting style and usage skills of the spear.
The members of the mercenary group participating in the mission were notified to set off tomorrow morning. All personnel participating in the operation will stay overnight at the station tonight. The mission is planned to be within ten days.
Steven decided not to bring a steel-armed hunting bow for this operation. The deputy leader Edith was the long-range attacker. In addition, Linton, a long-range attacker and scout, also participated in the operation. This way, he would have nothing to do. He only
Just be responsible for melee attacks.
The usual fighting style and personnel configuration of a mercenary group that hunts World of Warcraft is as follows: a large shield warrior or shield ax warrior is responsible for attracting Warcraft, which is called drawing hatred, and is understood by Steven as a tank.
Another great sword warrior is responsible for assisting the tank. If the aggro is lost, he will assist the tank in remediation. A spear warrior will sneak attack on the Warcraft under the cover of the tank and the great sword warrior.
This is a dangerous position!
Usually the fatal attack on Warcraft comes from the piercing attack of a spear. Most Warcraft are thick-skinned and equipped with protective armor. It is difficult for ordinary swords to cause fatal damage to them, and long-range attacks can only cause harassment.
It is also a slight injury to the monster. Of course, the poison of the wood element controller is not included in the calculation.
But usually, we try to avoid using poison in battle. The poisoned monster meat cannot be sold, which will result in the loss of a lot of money.
Moreover, most Warcraft have strong resistance to poison and can continue to fight for a long time even after being poisoned. Warcraft with the wood element ability can resist most toxins produced by humans, so at this time, they can really cause harm to Warcraft.
It is often the spearman who is fatally injured.
But the spearman is also the most vulnerable to attack in the death counterattack of Warcraft! Warcraft is often very intelligent, and it will focus its hatred on the person who caused fatal damage to it, so it is often difficult for the spearman to escape at this time.
Being attacked.
And the spearman cannot carry a shield to participate in the battle, and the protection is close to zero. The only advantage is to keep a distance to prevent the crazy monsters from attacking.
The sword warrior can also replace the spearman to cause fatal injuries to the monsters, but what the sword loses at this time is the distance advantage. Although the sword has a certain protective ability, its advantage in combat is always inferior to that of the spear.
An emerging combat method is to add flintlock rifles to long-range attacks. Although this kind of long gun is slow to load, it is very powerful. Some monsters with less protection can easily be seriously injured or even fatally shot by the lead bullets fired by the rifle.
However, the limitations of the rifle are also very prominent, and the decision whether to use it should be based on the specific situation.
The night passed quickly, and early the next morning, all the members of the mercenary group who participated in the mission set off after having breakfast at the station.
The personnel participating in this commissioned mission are: the captain of the shield and ax warrior Nathan, the deputy leader of the long-range attacker and healer Edith, the long-range attacker and scout Linton, the spear and hunter Qiu Qi, and the great sword warrior Ters
, Camp, Steven as an external combatant, and two external service personnel.
Edith serves as a long-range attacker and doctor, and Steven serves as a spearman. These are two insurances that exceed the standard establishment. It shows that the risk factor of this commissioned task is relatively high. Nathan also considered this before doing it.
Adjust accordingly.
The combatants each rode a horse, and the cook sat next to the driver's seat of a covered freight carriage driven by a coachman. The carriage of a two-wheeled freight carriage pulled by two horses was loaded with spears, spears, and shields that were inconvenient to carry.
As well as expendable feathers and arrows and other equipment, as well as more food and some sundries, half of the carriage was piled up.
In addition to the main weapons carried by combatants at each position, long-range attackers are also equipped with daggers, and melee combatants are equipped with a dagger inserted into their leg guards. All personnel wear combat uniforms, and melee combatants need to wear additional leather armor during combat.
, now these leather armors are temporarily placed on the carriage.
Captain Nathan took the lead, leading the team out of Murphy City and galloping toward Chesan Town in the southwest. The steel shield he used was placed on the carriage and the hatchet was slung on his back.
