I'm looking for someone to help teach me PVP - advice in terms of setting up a system, and offense. I'm thinking shadowlord in the Ebonguard, ATM. Anyone interested in doing a little volunteer work? Merci en advance.

I'm not really in the position to teach anyone PvP, but I feel a strong need to warn you:

If you're new to Lusternian combat, or IRE combat in general, and really want to play a warrior, please DO NOT play a Shadowlord Faeling. And if you do anyways, you must become a Bonecrusher for your weapon's spec.

With how little of an effect dexterity has in knight combat, a SL really doesn't have anything going for them most of the time except for their balance recovery advantage, and most other classes have enough ways to hinder your ability to attack that you won't be hitting any faster than any other warrior. Unless you have a lot of finesse and develop top notch curing, chances are you will be far, far better off as a human or taurian, or some other likewise high STR race. Bashing/hunting will also be painfully slow for a long, long time as an SL.

Bonecrusher will give you the best variety of afflictions and tricks to use in conjunction with your extra speed and weaker-than-average hits should you still want to be an SL.

And you spend all of that time listening to other people who've never tried it telling you how awesome that combination is!
