	You can go into combat to gain ~~items~~ and Reputation. ~~There are also some~~ tasks ~~that~~ require you to visit the combat areas to seek out those unfortunate to have become lost.		Once you have met [[Masters & Skills#Melee Combat - Jogon\|Jogon]] in [[Rivermoor]] you will be asked to go to [[Poppyhill]] to acquire a [[Swords\|sword]].
			You will then be able to take part in a [[Jogon Tutorial\|combat tutorial]], or just dive in to any accessible combat zone.

			You can go into combat to gain loot (monsters parts and some ore) and [[Reputation]] in the [[Dark Forests]]. Some tasks require you to visit the combat areas to seek out those unfortunate to have become lost.

			Combat is only for adults, so it is only possible once you have completed the [[Prologue]], by which time you would have grown up a bit. However, as soon as the Prologue is over, you will be able to visit Master [[Masters & Skills#Melee Combat - Jogon\|Jogon]] in [[Rivermoor]] to learn the basics and unlock your first important [[Masters & Skills#Melee Combat - Jogon\|Skill]].

			The Bow is a handy weapon that causes light damage but stuns monsters, buying valuable time.
			The Bow can be gained from [[Masters & Skills#Ranged Combat - Moon\|Moon]] in [[Drownhill]] as part of the [[Seek the Grandmasters]] story task.

	~~Combat is for adults only~~, ~~so it is only possible once you have completed~~ the ~~Prologue, by which time you would have grown up a bit.

To enter into combat, pass through the archways and you'll be taken to the [[Combat Loadout]] screen.
