Is it possible to get a one-handed sword from the Knight near the castle?
I have saved just befire encountering him but I don't want to fool with it if I am only going to get two-handed swords. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/question.gif" alt="" />

Do you mean the night near the warriors guild?

I´ve never tried it out, but you could do...
...save beforhand and work it out.

Would be intereting, although in most cases the weapon/item drop is randomized...

Good luck! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

No I mean the Knight who insults you in a cut scene near Stormfist Castle. He call you names and if you fight him he drops armor , helmet and sword.

Oh sorry <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />
didn´t read the thrad title completely...

This knight...
...I would fight him anyway because he behaves in such a rude manner <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

In my case he dropped a (two handed) Sword which was quite nice but nothing special...

If you are interested in two handede swords go for the sword of Chaos. Usually it´s the best 2H sword in the game.
but as you said it seems that you prefer one handed blades. A nice one is the nobleman´s blade which you can gain after completing a quest.

My first answer was polite, but the second response was basically a choice between killing him or groveling. I would have let him live, if he wasn't such a nocando. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> Also, I would have needed the experience points and the sword to let him live. And an apology. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />
The game uses the armour class of the area that is hit when calculating damage, so loss of a shield is not as much of a disadvantage as it is in other games.

Well I was afraid of that. Really wanted a one hand sword. Well, there is always that Singing Sword in the sewers. Thanks everybody for your help. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

when i got nobelmans sword it was crap 21 - 51 damage and durability of 15/15 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" />. the moral of that is to save BEFORE u identify unique objects. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> what happened to my avatar? does it have anything to do with lariancom.stiteprotect.net? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" />

Yep. You get exp. points if you don't.
There are more "situations" like that in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> btw.

But I know you're not there yet, so I'm not gonna tell you where and when. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I passed by that place but and I have met the rude guy. I also met a party of wild people (the one was with no hair and very fat) and they asked me to let them pass the road. I am a noble warrion in the game so politely let them go through the way. I gained many exp. points with that move. And I liked it very much. Good job again Larians <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

I like the idea of having a reward when I am nice... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

I killed him and gave me 742 xp. Boars give the same -maybe more xp- and I always try to be polite. Killing this rude knight doesn't effects your reputation, but who want to kill a knight even he is rude? I think he is young and want to kill someone but after some war he will be wise and become better man. And killing gives you some armor and bastard sword. I have enough gold and don't need this sword or armors. So I didn't kill him.

The real power is not to harm someone while you can.
