Cleave Damage
Controls the damage done to all targets hit in a swing except the first hit target, gaining a higher value, allow a higher damage done to targets except the first target hit in a swing
First Target
Controls the damage to the first target hit in a swing, heavy or light. weapons with this modifier usually do much higher damage than average to first target
Defences
an extra modifier than affects mobility modifier, while also other factors as how much a push use stamina, and stamina used while sprinting
Penetration

Attack Types
Vanguard
Wide angle swipe, either horizantal or 45 degrees sweep, used to deal damage to multiple targets at once, best used against hordes or multiple enemies.

Relentless
Similar to Vanguard, Wide angle swipe, either horizontal or 45 degree sweep, but focuses on staggering targets rather than damaging targets. those attacks do higher stagger, and aims at crowd control more than crowd removing.

Strike down
Attacks that are based to engage a single target, mostly are top down attacks, that are aimed at the head of the enemy, most attacks in strike down does extra damage, due to its constraint to single target damaging.

Assassin
Attacks on single target, that gets higher damage multiplier when targeting a weakspot, or a critical hit, or even both.
Combos
Each weapon have its own combo or chain of attacks in melee, some weapons aims at being more of a single target damaging, while other at horde control and distribution.


Those attack patterns are predefined, a player can infuse the light and heavy attack pattern together, as per picture.
First heavy attack is relentless, aimed at hordes, yet following in combo is strike down, if a player want to clear hordes, use of Heavy Attack + Light Attack would allow to reset the combo back to the relentless attack, therefore the player created an infused combo.
Catachan Swords
Named after the planet itself. These swords is common baseline swords of the game, available to all human sized personal, they lack anything special about them as they are the jack of all trades and traditional, therefore they share a huge pool of blessings, their special attack is parry, which blocks the enemy melee attacks even if an attack is unblockable, as in mauler top down attack or crusher top down attack, while also sends out high stagger to the target and damage.

@Happymartin
Sadly I discussed the same thing way before nearly a year ago, and didnt receive happy feedback, as you are trying to make the game easy, and you are removing weapon distinction and making every weapon the same, although it would be just as "Red weapons" in VT2, but yeah.



It seem steam didnt alert me about messages, and just random check on the guide i noticed the comment.
Happymartin 2024 年 5 月 27 日 下午 5:02 
Just a gentle criticism: "A weapon basic stats is based upon 5 modifiers , those modifiers are scaled from 0%->80%, a max weapon modifier score would be 380 points, with 80% in 4 of the modifiers, and a 60% in a modifier. so a perfect loot weapon does not exist."

I mean in that context a perfect loot weapon DOES technically exist. Just your favorite weapon with 380 points and 80% in 4 modifiers and 60% in one. Do what you want with it, I'm just pointing it out and being needlessly "UMMM WELL, ACHTUALLY..."
