Throwing proficiency too low?

[Turkhammer]

I get throwing proficiency too low line on the screen at every spawn.  My wpf is 80 for throwing.  What's that notice trying to tell me?

[Mala]

That you have too less wpf in throwing compared to your throwing skill.

[Braeden]

I'm told you need 13-14 wpf per powerthrow, in addition to 10 wpf per Horse Archery, and you need more if you wear heavy armor.

[Kafein]

Iirc you can go up to 9PT and have enough wpf with decent armor.

[Turkhammer]

I have 5 PT and 80 wpf in throwing.  Seems to be in the correct ratio.  I have a brynie and Sarranid helmet, nothing too much.

[Phew]

With the recently-added "weapon proficiency affecting upkeep cost", this additional requirement needs to go away. If I want to pay huge repair bills and not be able to hit anything more than 3 ft away, I should be able to have 10 PT and 1 throwing wpf and still be able to pick up throwing weapons.

Poor proficiency with a weapon should increase the chance that you break it. That's realistic and balanced.

It shouldn't prevent me from being able to reach down and pick one up.
