The Man-at-Arms — Chivalry: Medieval Warfare Walkthrough

Master the Man-at-Arms in Chivalry: Medieval Warfare. This walkthrough details their fast attacks, dodges, and role in disrupting enemy lines.

The Man-at-Arms is the agile duelist, specializing in fast attacks, quick dodges, and effective counter-attacks. They have medium armor, making them more durable than Archers but less so than Vanguards or Knights. Their strength lies in their speed and ability to quickly flank enemies or disengage from unfavorable fights. They are excellent for disrupting enemy lines and picking off isolated targets.

Recommended Builds:

• Sword & Shield Duelist: Primary: Broadsword/Arming Sword, Secondary: Heater Shield, Tertiary: Throwing Knives. This build offers excellent defense and quick attacks. Use the shield to block and parry, then counter-attack with fast slashes. Throwing knives are great for finishing off low-health enemies.
• Flanking Dagger: Primary: Dagger/Short Sword, Secondary: Buckler, Tertiary: Throwing Axes. Focus on extreme speed and flanking. Daggers are incredibly fast, allowing for quick stabs and slashes. Use the buckler for quick parries. Ideal for hit-and-run tactics and assassinating Archers.
• Polearm Harasser: Primary: Spear/Halberd, Secondary: Short Sword, Tertiary: Throwing Axes. While less common, a Man-at-Arms with a shorter polearm can use their speed to maintain distance and poke enemies, then quickly retreat. This requires good spacing and awareness.

Playstyle: Use your speed to your advantage. Flank enemies, target Archers and Vanguards, and avoid getting surrounded. Master the dodge mechanic (double-tap movement keys) to evade attacks. Your role is to be a disruptive force and a skilled duelist.
