Please correct any wrong assumptions.
Best guild = Warrior Best subguild = Protector
Do stats matter? If so: Strength?
Does height or weight matter?
I had a warrior with slipknife: Subdue works while hidden. Super Cool.
Can you "hold" an object still while subduing?

No need to double up warrior/protector. Warrior gets everything that protector has built in IIRC. It appears that height/weight/strength all matter. I believe that you drop held/wielded items on attempting to subdue, but I can't recall.

Warrior for subdue skill cap and the strength bonus on character gen. If you wanted to go for pure subdue success, going for Ruk strength buff would be the best choice. If you want to have the most fun with it, Whiran flying lets you drag people off cliffs and then throw them while in the air. This is fun because they land in the sit position and are stuck in it until the being thrown delay wears off. In other words, they fall the full distance with no chance to stop the fall. Not sure if it still works or not, though.
Height and strength are key, weight doesn't factor as far as I know.
You can subdue from hiding, but it breaks hide before the subdue attempt is executed. There's no benefit besides scaring the bejesus out of people.
All wielded/held objects are automatically dropped when executing a subdue attempt. If you attempt to hold or wield (or do pretty much anything but move), it will automatically release the subdue first.
You release your victim automatically before aggressive commands (kill, sap, kick) are executed.

The good 'ole subdue/kill combo. Used to keep your weapon out so you could get a big damage bonus, I think I was one of the players who got that changed..
however just for those not in the "know" the "hit" damage type that all humanoids have from unarmed does ridiculous amounts of stun damage so if a HG or a mul or even a strong dwarf subdues and uses kill with bare hands they can usually knock you out anyway and eventually kill you.

I thought of a new exploit using subdue. Kill almost anyone, even in the city, even with soldiers about.
