I just have a few questions, since I'm new to adventurer mode. I read that while wrestling you can gouge out enemy eyes if you have a grip on their head. I've done that, but I don't see an option for eye gouging. Help?

Also, how do I equip items? I dropped my iron 2h but I picked it back up, and idk how to equip it again.

Are you grabbing the head with your hand specifically? It won't work if you grab with, say, your upper arm or lower arms.

2 conditions must be met for eye gouging
1.It has to be done on a humanoid, eg a human, elf, goblin, demon, etc
2.you must grab their head with one of your hands, not a lower arm or something. If you do that you should get the option to gouge, assuming the creature still has eyes.

Oh okay thanks, I've just been wrestling with wolves. Also, how do I re-equip my sword?

It's not letting me /w/ear it.

you need to hold it in your hand, the "wear" command is only for armor and clothing. There are two ways to do this. You can /r/emove it from your container which should automatically put it in your hand if you have an open hand or you can drop it and then pick it back up.

Remember though, you'll always wield what is in your good hand, so if you don't know which is your good hand it's best to just drop everything in your hands then pick up your sword first.  Otherwise you may be bashing with your shield and trying to block with the sword.

Are you sure about this?  I'm pretty sure I've done it to a wolf.

You can't. Believe me, everyone tries that their first time playing and then makes a post about how they can't do it. I've done it and I've answered dozens of questions about it. Unless something has changed recently you can't.

Really? Thats odd...what version are you playing on because I'm positive you couldn't back when I started playing.  Maybe that was changed when I wasn't looking.

huh, that is weird. I've been too involved with mods to really get any of the new versions so I guess I never noticed. Very weird.

You can't lock limbs on non-humanoids, but eye-gouging and pinching - Yes you can.

Gouging out their eyes and then pinching once or twice makes them pass out. Pretty easy tactic.

Well you can gouge out eyes on the verrsion that's been around since september 2008!  So you really need to update if you don't have it YET!

One thing that should be stressed is that you hand must be empty - that is, you cannot have a weapon or a shield in that hand if you want to gouge out eyes or pinch with it.
