Cut should work best on leather or light armor.

Pierce and blunt should be best for tincans or heavy armor.

But in reality pierce is super efficient against everything while blunt can suck at times against low armored opponents (you think you'll kill them from one hit and that sometimes don't happen). Pierce is godlike and good against everything.

Pierce weapons are bodkin arrow, pikes, bec, xbows, lances... basically everything that seems OP to you and that kills you in no time is pierce weapon :wink:

High numerical damage is best for very low armor values. It's when you start adding 40~ armor when blunt/pierce tend to take the lead in damage output. The problem is that 40 armor is fairly low, especially when you consider looms.

This is because of the soak factor for each damage type. Armor weighs heavily on cut damage, and not so much on pierce/blunt. Armor isn't a static number that reduces all damage at a flat rate(Aside from horse bumps I think).
