Battlegrounds currently has five classes that combatants may choose to enter.
-How the weapon listings work-
If a level allows you to use two of the same weapon, the weapon in question will be followed by (Dual). If a level allows you to use two different weapons at once there will be a / between the two listed weapons such as “Sword/Dagger”. If it is listed as “Sword,Dagger”, that simply means you could use a sword -or- a dagger, not both at the same time. Also, only a level seven martial artist can hold the blades of their own weapons, so take care when wielding things such as the blade-staffs that you grip the weapon by it's handle only.
