Can't use my Thunder Ability, Please help.

HI guys, first time poster.

My class is Warrior and my 2nd class is Knight. My warrior is level 12 and my Knight is level 15.
My thunder ability is on the warrior class, It says i need a one handed weapon and some rage built up to use it, and it is to be used on a weak opponent. Why can't I use it? I've tried multiple times with multiple weapons and multiple enemies.

Please help guys im a super newb at this :( lol

one of your other skills puts a "weakened" debuff on the target. only when this debuff is active can you use thunder. sorry, I don't have the skills right in front of me to look it up, but it may be something like "open flank" iirc.
my r/p can outdps r/m. your name is stupid.

mages should stack dex. word.

Quite a lot of warrior skills set up a debuff that the next skill needs. Examine your available skills and try to build combo's to increase your dps.

For example:
Skill
Description
Resulting Debuff
Probing AttackCauses ___% main hand weapon DPS and makes the target Vulnerable.Vulnerable (debuff given)
Open FlankWhen the target is Vulnerable this brute force attack causes ___% main hand weapon DPS to the target and Weakens it.Vulnerable (debuff removed)
Weakened (debuff given)
ThunderTo be used when the target is in Weakened state. Causes ___% main hand weapon DPS with an additional ___ second Stun.
(For players this effect lasts for ___ seconds.)
(Requires a one-hand weapon.)
Weakened (debuff remioved)

Thunder is the 3rd hit in a sequence of hits. 1st use probing attack To put debuff on target so you can use open flank which puts debuff on target so you can use thunder.

Edit: Got beaten to the punch

Thanks a bunch guys! I understand that now! My knight has a skill like that as well but with the "holy seal" it was much easier to understand the proper order lol

Thanks for the help. Can I put anyone on speed dial for my next questions? I seriously have like 20 more about the game lol and it's all stuff I couldn't find with Google research

Oh, lookie! I got Starred. :)

Warrior is a class that generates a lot of questions and whilst I do not consider myself an authority on the class, I'm happy to answer questions whenever I can.

Here's one before you ask it:
To generate Rage, you must be within 'Attack' range of your target. A lot of your regular skills will have a slightly longer range than this and so to get close enough to generate Rage, you should hit 'Attack' pretty early on in the fight to allow your character to move close enough.
Of course, it's much easier to take more damage when you're closer so make sure you have a decent stock of health potions and herbs.
Running the minigames for Phirius potions is also a good plan.
