The Torch is a fiery weapon of destruction and needs to be...

Nerfed some more because a wooden stick not on fire is cooler anyways
Buffed because it should at least be a semi menacing weapon
Torches are lame because fire is lame

Torch improvements!!

Ok so everybody likes the amazing torch and what not, what im asking for is that it do extra damage to shields. Since apparently we can no longer sheath the torch(its on fire!) Then it should catch shields on fire and since i doubt anyone can actually show that then it should at least do extra damage to them. Or at least have them sheathable until you pull them out for the first time ( you have to light it first!) And maybe some burn damage to people in cloth! I dont know if any of this is even possible but id like some feed back or something :D

I for one support this. It'd be cool to burn down a building too. TO be able to smoke people out. I am fine with just extra damage to shields and people though. People do not do well with flames when it is applied to their body repeatedly.

You won't really notice the difference between being beaten by a stick or being beaten by a stick on fire. The difference comes when you hold it against someone.

Besides that, it's nearly impossible to set a shield on fire with a torch unless the shield is made of very dry straw and you push the torch against the shield for a longer period of time.

The torches do make excellent archery targets on night maps though. That's a bonus on it's own.

The problem is even if you are number 1 in NA you are still only number 467 in EU or the worst in AUS(number 17)

Oh pshaw on all that! If they wanted realism in Crpg than I would have asked for it besides its more than a stick on fire it has oil on it you can blind your enemies with! And its not really my fault no one can see the fire on my torch everyone turns of particle effect because the rain is annoying...

So the new response to ranged ragers is not "get a shield", it is "learn to chamber ranged nub!"

Instead of doing shields, why not allow torches to do large damage against structural things like doors in siege or deployables.

Ok maybe I should clarify on this torch buff or not even that just make it more useable than it is right now. The people above have clearly stated that a torch would light shields on fire and well they wouldnt and they wouldn't light cloth of fire either unless he stood still and waited to be burned by the torch. What I'm saying is just make it some what fun to use by making it sheath able again or increasing the speed or damage on it. Right now I believe the wooden stick or club has the same exact look and does more damage and is faster than the torch and he only difference is its not on fire

and it should stay that way, torch is to have light, or scare away animals, burn  buildings, not for combat, since crpg dousnt support setting stuff on fire, it will serve the purpose of light: deal with it, and downvote this post to you sad person.

I was just offended by how callously you dashed away my hopes and dreams by statingmy serous and desperate attempt to make this mod better was trivial. So at least give me my chance to have a better torch!
