Object-Oriented Python - last challenge

Stuck on the last part of the last code challenge.

"When Warrior is converted to a string, the string should be like "Warrior, <weapon>, <attack_limit>". Update your class to produce this string using values from the instance."

It's just telling me to try again and I just can't get what's wrong with my code. Help?

warrior.py 
from character import Character

class Warrior(Character):
  weapon = 'sword'
  string = 'Warrior'

  def rage(self):
    self.attack_limit = 20

  def __str__(self):  
    return  "{}, <{}>, <{}>".format(string, weapon, rage())

Hey wiltterii,

You are really close with your __str__ method. You just need to add the self to reference the variables.

Also the rage() method sets the attack_limit variable not returns it.

So your code should look like this:

def __str__(self):
    return "{}, {}, {}".format(self.string, self.weapon, self.attack_limit)
