hello, i wish to build a pure wrestler, for the fun and roleplay matters, but i would like to understand a bit better the mechanisms to be at least a bit effective.
That's what i've found for now on the official uo website :
<blockquote><hr>
Using Wrestling
Your Wrestling skill is checked automatically each time you attempt hand-to-hand combat. The skill determines the frequency of your attacks, as well as the amount of damage you deal when striking an opponent.
Hint: Mages not interested in gaining Wrestling skill would be wise to keep their spellbooks in their hands when in battle, rather than in their backpack. To use your Wrestling skill, enter War mode with nothing in your hands and double-click an opponent.
Special Moves
The special wrestling moves may only be activated using a macro to place your character in the appropriate wrestling "mode." While in this mode, you may attack as normal, but every 10 seconds, you may attempt a special move. Each attempt to perform a special wrestling move results in a temporary loss of 15 Stamina.
# Disarm — Characters with a high skill in Wrestling and Arms Lore may occasionally attempt to disarm opponents during combat. If successful, the target’s weapon or spellbook is removed from his hands and placed in his backpack. Use this attack by configuring an Arm/Disarm macro.
# Stun — Characters with a high skill in Wrestling and Anatomy may attempt to stun opponents during combat. If successful, a stun punch stuns the targeted opponent for four seconds. Use this attack by configuring a Wreststun macro.
Additional Information
Professional Title: Wrestler
Skill Used by: Automatic when fighting hand-to-hand
Trainers: All NPCs
Secondary Skill (may improve while wrestling): Tactics, Anatomy
Handy Additional Skills for Wrestlers:
Anatomy — A high Anatomy skill can give you a special attack that’s absolutely “stunning.”
Arms Lore — With a high skill in Arms Lore, you can disarm opponents with a simple flick of the wrist.

Now, these informations are generating more questions than they are answering...
First of all, from when are the infos on the official website, and are they still correct nowadays ?
Then , there are some points which are really not clear for me, for example about what they say about the special moves. if i understand correctly, it's not working like the classical fighter skills (sword, fencer, mace). you lose stamina instead of mana when you use a special move ? and you "enter in a mode" by a macro (which macro ?) which allows you to use a special move every 10 seconds ? it's really not clear. Or maybe it's just like the other skills ,but it's explained so badly that i get lost ?
Then, i have some questions too about the complementary skills : armslore, anatomy, tactics... is it still correct, and are there any more precise datas ?
how armslore does help in disarming ?
how anatomy gives "stunning" attacks ?
do you have to have tactics to use the special moves with wrestling ?
and then one more question :
does bushido help to parry without shield when you fight without weapon ?
i thank you for your help
