6388, practicing two-worded skills using an item
Posted by Conjurer on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Apologies if I'm just a dunce. Figured this would work like healing at healers, e.g. "heal heal {item}". Tried "prac conjure archon {item}" and got "You can't practice 'conjure archon {item}'". Then tried "prac 'conjure archon' {item}" with the same result.

PRACTICE PRACTICES PRACTICING LEARNING
Syntax: PRACTICE
PRACTICE <skill|spell|supplication|power>
practice '<skill|spell|supplication|power>' for '<object>'

PRACTICE without an argument tells you your learned and effective ability
level in all the skills and spells available to you, as well as how many
practice sessions you have remaining. You can check this anywhere. Doing
so in the same room as your guildmaster will also show you the cost for
practicing each skill/spell/supplication. Your effective ability level
will appear in parentheses after your learned ability level.

PRACTICE with an argument practices that skill or spell. Use the full
name of the skill or spell, and you need not include quotes. Example:

practice detect invis

Your learning percentage will be at 75% once fully practiced at a guild
master. You must be at a guild master to practice and (after level 10)
must also be able to pay for the practice time. Guildmasters in your
hometown will teach you at a lower cost. Practicing effects your learned
ability level, not your effective ability level.

If you do not wish to pay in cash, you may attempt to barter an object for
the service. Example syntax:

practice 'detect invis' for 'jeweled broadsword' or
practice 'detect invis' for broadsword


The higher your intelligence, the more you will learn at each practice
session, and the faster you will improve skills while adventuring. The higher
your wisdom, the more practice sessions you will have each time you gain a
level. Unused sessions are saved until you do use them.
