Gloria Victis Gameplay

If you’re starting out, doing the main quest line is a good way to level up, get some starting silver and start getting into the games combat mechanics.

Dueling (bottom left of your minimap, click the cross) is one of the fastest ways to level up, if not the fastest if you can win consistently.

You can always bind your directional blocks and attack to specific keys Incase clicking and dragging is not working for you.

Joining a clan is one of the first things you should do, they usually help new players with gear and straight-up sparring lessons.

If you are planning to use axes, ignore dex they get no bonus from it. Go fully into str and con and wear heavy armor. Axes are perfect for tanks. Swords are kinda how you have set up now. They get a small bonus from dex and a med bonus from str so taking strength tell it cost 3points then go dex and con in a solid move for swords. Bows and dagger go full dex with con. Str is not needed as it gives little to no bonus to bows and daggers.
