Throw. I can throw objects, but I don't have the skill. I read the helpfiles, and they said that people without the throw skill in thier lists will be able to throw objects, but nothing about the improvement of skills, or anything like that.
So, my question is will I get better at throw if I play darts, gamble, or throw daggers at gith? Even without it in my skill list? After throwing darts enough will I maybe 'branch' and get the skill later?

No. You might get this skill from branching if you are the right guild, but that would obviously be dependent on you mastering another skill, not using the throw skill.
just a comment
Darts has its own skill and I think everyone has it, not so sure.
Most skills can be used even if the skill is not on your skill list. However, you will never improve if that is the case. This simply represents the facts that anyone can try to perform some physical feat, but only experts can get extremely good at it.
Also, whenever you "throw" something it does indeed use the throw skill.
This is kinda along the lines of Hand to Hand, or at least 'missing' skills and I've been wondering about that for awhile. I know alot of people practice h2h, but I've Never seen it in my skill lists, unless I'm just a complete ass...
Will 'boxing' improve a hand to hand or at least weaponless combat skill that I'm unaware of?
If not I think this is a glaring flaw in our combat system, along with the 'Throw' problem. I've played darts alot, and I know that after a few weeks of playing regularly, you ARE going to get better, unless you're trying to NOT get better...

There is no Unarmed Combat skill. Fighting unarmed will improve your combat ability in general, but not your unarmed combat ability in particular.
I saw someone throw a rotton petoch fruit at someone else, and it didn't initiate combat. I thought that was the coolest thing, from the elven thrower. Good job for risking the unknown.
I think as long as your not throwing an acctual coded weapon it won't do acctually damage or start combat. But thats just my guess.
Can you know throw items into other rooms or is that still not done?

I tried to throw a travel cake, but couldn't.
Dang!

I would just like to protest the lack of spoiled cheese in this thread.
Down with false advertising!
I think you can throw things into other rooms as long as you're throwing them at someone. I'd check to make sure, but the mud's down right now.

I think that kinda suks because a builder in rl could learn how to paint if he did it long enough, how about if we made it any class can branch any subskil,l it just might take longer than the guild that can branch it....hope that makes sense.
It does make sense guest, but in the end this is a game. In a game, you need balance. If my warrior could learn to backstab, I would never make another assassin. There are some skill combinations that are simply sick when put together. Now, that is not to say you can't get these, it just isn't going to be handed out to anyone who can spam a skill enough though. Just like in the same way you need to show you can be trusted to run around with a magiker, you need to also show the same thing if you want to run around as a back stabbing warrior. In other words, you need to talk it over the the staff or get a special application.
