Actually we have plans for nerfing katana damage vs armor once we get ot make damage types more interesting. At the moment we are stuck with cut, pierce and blunt, so the katana shares its damage types wirth other swords. I'd like to differentiate the drawn cut of curved swords from the hewn cut of straight swords or even axes. The first should be pretty bad against metal armor while still being strong again leather or cloth protection. The latter should stay somewhat effective even against maille.

Anyway personally I think katana damage is a bit too high now. Used to be 35c but Thomek lobbied Fasader into submission. Word is on the street that he got bribed with a cabbage. I don't judge him for that. If it's boot soup for you seven days the week, you haven't said no either.

You guys should nerf the greatswords they seem to be overpowered. I don t want a damage nerf i want a speed nerf because who the fuck can swing a greatsword so fast? And if we comparte the longsword and the katana then the longsword is better so no need to nerf the katana!

this is unnecessary, and though the notion of drawing a sword, swinging quickly, and putting it away probably was put to use - I don't think warriors were doing this in big battles.

Ten shots of prayers, ten shots a day
A shot of thrill to hide the pain.
They can`t win, they just don`t cry,
The troopers know they live to die.

Long and heavy weapons should all have longer recovery times when you miss a swing (ie. not successful and not blocked).
