longsword, broadsword, javelin, halberd, flail, and others. In order to gain
proficiency, first seek out someone with the knowledge to teach you that
specific weapon (HELP PROFICIENCY TEACHERS). Proficiencies cost 100 lessons
each.
To learn a weapon proficiency:
LEARN PROFICIENCY IN <weapon name> FROM <proficiency-teacher>.
After you have given your lessons to the teacher, you must go out and practice
with the weapon you are seeking proficiency in. Simply go out and use the
weapon as it was intended and eventually you will master it.
