Item Balance: Wakizashi

In my opinion, this weapon is too expensive to be usable with the current stats. Comparison to similar weapons:

Short Falchion:
Both weapons have the same speed. Wakizashi is longer and has a stab, but 1 cut damage less. Upkeep difference: 442

Italian Falchion:
Same stab damage and lenght. Wakizashi is faster, but has 5(!) cut damage less. Upkeep difference: 214

Nordic Short War Sword:
The Nordic Short War Sword is better in every category except for speed. Wakizashi has only 1 stab less, while all other stats are significantly better. Upkeep difference: 260

In conclusion, the Wakizashi is totally overpriced for its stats. Please buff its stats within reason or make it significantly cheaper.

Have fun and good games!

Dude, it is not just some kind of wakizashi. This is a 1000000 times folded wakizashi from another dimension where it is a prized weapon of god of war.

If you wanna be a weaboo, you gotta pay for it.

You're right, the wakizashi is grossly underpowered compared to its cost.  To solve this I think they should completely remove all weaboo gear from the mod -- It's the only thing to do.  Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

1 handeds are OP, buffing more is the wrong way to go about balancing

Maybe those weapons are too cheap? Wakizashi is pretty good already.

Wakizashi is probably the most useless item in the whole 1h category.

I consider my MW Wakizashi a fashion item. Certainly can't be called weapon :P

Give it one more cut please. Otherwise it is weaker than the Short Falchion but it costs 6 times as much...
