EVerquest - Melee Disciplines

[Detomah]

24 Melee Disciplines
In addition to the many automatic skills and abilities that characters will receive past 50th level, we've added player-controlled fighting "disciplines" to the repertoires of the pure melee (Warriors, Monks, and Rogues) and hybrid (Paladin, Shadowknight, Ranger, and Bard) classes. These disciplines are listed on the combat UI screen which you can bring up by hitting Ctrl+C. You cannot use any other discipline until the reuse time of the last-used discipline has expired. The window will show which disciplines you have learned as well as the reuse times for any you have used.

Some disciplines, particularly the ones with long duration, have a disadvantage in addition to the advantage provided by the discipline. In all cases where this happens, the disadvantage is less severe than the advantage. For instance, where the Evasive Discipline allows a warrior to be hit by his opponent less by a factor of 35%, the warrior will also hit his target less, but only by a factor of 15%. In the interest of exploration, further formulae will not be provided.
