	Thrown weapons are unusual in that they do not use standard ranged weapon calculations. Rather, they use melee calculations. This sets them apart from standard ranged weapons but also causes some problems, making them more susceptible to shield and armor than standard ranged weapons. However, light thrown is still an extremely powerful weapon class, able to dish out worthy damage. Additionally, some of the loss in standard performance is made up by light thrown's versatility. The skill can be used as a multi-pronged attack (throwing blades), a magical aid (throwing naphtha to severely increase the damage from fire-based attacks), disabler (dirt thrown to lower perception) or a standard attack.

			==Throwing Dirt==
			Dirt can be foraged and thrown by any player, regardless of guild.

			This must be done from melee range. Dirt can be in the right hand (simply 'throw') or the left ('throw left'). It will give a perception penalty to the single enemy effected.

			Sweeping your hand in a wide arc, you fling a cloud of dirt straight at the ship's rat's face!
			The ship's rat seems taken by surprise by the cloud of expanding dust!
			Swirling brown dust envelops the ship's rat's face. As it dissipates, it seems disoriented.
			Roundtime: 2 sec.

			Thieves have a pair of ambushes, [[Ambush Screen]] and [[Ambush Choke]] which use dirt.
