Editing Scratch:Fencing Skills

'''fencing''' ( fighting SP):
Fencing skills use a well-balanced, one-handed blade which can cut and thrust. You may use a buckler, shield or other weapon in your other hand. Some fencing attacks do piercing damage, which is more effective against padded armor which does not deflect thrusts.

:*healthy: 2 attacks, 1 damage each (cut) or 1 attack, 2 piercing damage (thrust).
