Possible new feature: different hilt/blade damage

[NuberT]

second hit should almost bounce off in my opinion, especially on heavy armor, there is not much momentum in that swing.

[Dach]

Me like! Also the other video you posted about ranged being able to disarm is CRAZY!!!!!!!!!! WANT WANT WANT!!! 

Also add overhead stab for spear like weapon pls! 

[Moncho]

Maybe this has been brought up, but could maybe the hilt of the weapon have some stagger and low damage, whereas the end is the one that does a lot of damage?
A bit simulating that when using a polearm (most affected weapons by this), if the enemy gets too close, youll try to grab him and get him to back off to be able to use your weapon decently.

If that feature is going in then polearms would get a significant disadvantage which is ok if compensated correctly. I'd set the blunt damage for hilt hits of head-heavy polearms rather low(15b-ish) so getting into infight is really bad for them.  In compensation I'd make it so that polearms suffer less from the turn limit than 2h because of the wider grip that gives more control over the weapon.

If 2h axes get the hilt hit thingy too than they'd need a buff. I'd really like to have an additional damage type(like pierce-cut or blunt-cut) for them so they don't have to use the same (drawn) cut damage type of gaytana or scimibah.

blunt pierce dmg on bec ith knockdown and some normal dmg ^^
love it

making that future deserve full loom point reset
because you can fuck up soo many peps really hard

What if both 2h and Polearms get this:

- for polearms the hilt part does less damage, but blunt
- for 2h the hilt part (and some of the blade close to the hilt) does less damage, but remains cut

This would be a slight buff to polearms compared to 2h.

But it makes no sense for 2h sword to do less damage close to the hilt, if it's the blade?!?!?

USE YOUR BRAIN VIBE PLS

USE YOUR BRAIN VIBE PLS

Ofcourse it does, smaller swing arc = less swing speed at that point of the blade

[Xant]

Yes, but the blade is closer to you so you can use more force?????????
