I'm a soldier I think. I use a spear and that fire resistance shield to poke at the enemies. Sometimes i cut them with a scimitar, or shoot at them with a bow. Are there clearly defined upgrade paths? I thought you just upgraded the stats you needed to use the weapons you wanted.

Well I'm no weapons expert, but I'd say the short spear is good for tight spaces, and the broad sword for multiple enemies. Soldier is supposed to be one of those well-balanced classes, but I'd suggest focusing on the strength stat since the class is actually a bit more melee based.

There are upgrade paths...the most basic uses hardstone and sharpstone which can go up to plus10, but those don't really yield any bonuses to your stats. But depending on what level you reach, (say for example, Short Spear plus4), the other upgrade paths start to unlock by blacksmith ed. Some examples are Sharp, Quality, Crushing. I'd recommend Crushing for a soldier class, which I think starts at plus3 or something. It gives a bonus to Strength.

To be honest there are too many weapons in the game for me personally to know what's best for you...I'd suggest you check out Wiki for information on all the weapons...and upgrades.

Aha, you mean weapon upgrade paths. I thought it was character related somehow.

I like the fact that the spear alows to attack from a bit of distance and that it penetrates armour. I can also attack multiple enemyes with it, as long as they are lined up. Not so good for fighting in the middle of a crowd at all. Plus you can attack while holding up the shield, so the window for a counter is smaller.

Anyways, I'm at the verry beginnin as I didn't find many weapon or shield types yet. My initial feeling was that there aren't that many, so you have to upgrade to make a normall weapon a great one. I want a katana :P.

Q: Can one sell equipment or recycle it somehow?

nope. any item you find, you either store it or forget about it.
