[STATS] Revise stab damage for a lot of weapons, examples in here

If you take a look at various weapons you'll see a lot of inconsistencies concerning stabs. Some weapons have a stab, while they don't even have a clear point. Others have a stab, but similar pointed weapon's cant stab. I would just like the balancing team to take a look at these and make them make more sense. Buff or nerf the swing damage or speed if a added or removed stab unbalances the game, but this doesn't really make sense.

War axe has a 19c stab

Shortened voulge, clear tip, but no stab. Same goes for the 2h bardiches. The Great long bardiche however has a 18p stab. The Long voulge has the exact same blade as the shortened voulge and has a 18p stab.

Long iron mace, a 20b stab, really? That's a pretty damn good stab. Same goes for Studded warclub. Ever tried thrusting a baseball bat? Even if these weapons deserve a stab, why doesn't the barmace have one? Or the morningstar which is pointy.

Clear point, a 16p stab.

Barely pointed, a 19p stab. Should be cut damage or removed. Same goes for the Hafted blade. The Voulge has a similar tip, but lacks a stab.

Stretching your arms with a tip heavy weapon like this? Has a 10b stab.

A better stab than the katana, just saying.

Honestly I wish the Hafted Blade was replaced with a model of a Svardstav, basically a danish "great sword"-ish tip on the end of a polearm shaft (this is a true Polearm of history btw)

.........instead of the Hafted Blade which looks kinda like a Falchion on the end of a long stick

Long iron mace's stab is really silly. Same for all the axes's.
Just remove all stabs with all sorts of axes, so one doesn't have a "better" stab than another wich seems, though, to have a "better"  metal-end.

I like some of your changes, but really buff katana stab? It does not deserve or need it.
I'm not retreating, just advancing in another direction!

Please note that the katana only got mentioned because it has a clear tip and only a 16p stab. As with all of these weapons it's not that I want the weapon buffed per say, I just suggest that the ingame stab does not reflect the stabbing capabilities that the model suggests. If it had been up to me I would've changed the katana's stab to 20p and I wouldve left the swing damage at 35c. With the 37c swing damage the katana doesn't need a buff at all.

hmm well if all the weapons had a stab, especially the lower tier ones, they would become a lot more powerful because of the pierce dmg (its only 1 direction sure but it's a powerful attack)

I do see what you're saying and im not sure whether I wanna agree or disagree because I see pros and cons on both sides.
