Same. XD My apolagies

No idea. Don't own it.

WOTC compatible? I'm making a collection for when I get the DLC ^^

To have sword attacks almost always hit sounds op though the increased damage makes sense!

the mod doesnt seem to be working for some reason. Still seeing the base damage of the regular sword at 3-4 damage.

@pjgary88 No, it does not. This only modifies the vanilla swords. Any weapons added by mods are not affected.

does this work with the lightsaber/jedi mod?

Hello,

You've said that you'd update the description on the 8tf of february with exact number.

Could you do it someday ?

Thanks

You should prolly mention somewhere that the sword has armor piercing per tier equal to that tier of upgrade.

***\Steam\SteamApps\workshop\content\268500\619477247

where's the config file for this mod?

Gotcha, I was wonderig because you said this is a step down from the previous version and didn't list the armor piercing in the new description. Thank you for clarifying that.

No, but there is a vanilla UI bug with pierce. If you attack a dude with Armor greater than your weapon's Pierce value, it will only ever display their full armor value in the damage display, and not the amount of actual stopped damage. I've already reported it in the 2k forums.

Did you remove the armor piercing from this with the new update?

Sorry about that, it seems steam/modbuddy are frequently unhappy with my VPN. I'll have a description back up shortly.

As with the Gay Witch, seems the dmg increase is gone. as is the description.

Also it seemed just now that the damage increases from this mod were no longer applying, but I cant verify that at the moment since no description. In game just now my sword damage value was (3 - 5)

description disappeared!

@Evernight
LOVE your idea!
That would make much more sense to give these "bonuses" in smaller parts from the existing perks.
To really build a melee class.

I am with some of the other comments asking to make this park of Blademaster and Bladestorm. These changes are bordering on overpowered but if they require investment into blade perks. Either way - great mod - thumbs up.

That's a definite possibliity. I have a few other projects I'm working on though, so this is admittedly low priority. But it's something I've had on my mind as a part of a larger rebalance/tweaking mod though, but that will definitely be further down the road.

May I ask, if enough people desire it, that you also have a seperate mod involving the changes tied into the assault's melee skills? I understand this increases conflict possabilities that a lot probably want to avoid to ensure mod compatability. For now though I will give it a whirl to see how it feels and I appreciate what has been made. As I cannot for the life of me make a simple mod including europe, oceana and south america for possible starting locations.

I'll look into it. I'm currently keen on keeping it overall because a) it makes swords still viable for scouts, and 2) in it's current form it keeps it light weight enough that someone can disable the content without potentially damaging their save game. If you delete the content folder of this mod it won't break your game.

what neo said is what I would love to see as a sword change

@Respec so Blademaster adds damage and chance to hit to these values.. and Bladestorm adds armor pierce and crit change?

All I know is the vanilla values made swords next to worthless at end game.

afaik, yes

With 100 aim, does that mean you will never miss?

I think a better idea would be to buff the sword perks, like blademaster damage. This requires you to specialize. Rather than take the shogun perks anyway and just have a stronger sword.

really like this
i like the sword skill tree for the ranger but the damage was never really enough, especially near the end of the game

been playing with this on for a little now in a new game, and I think that maybe the starting sword does not need a damage boost
when combined with the blademaster skill at early levels it is a little too strong

I'll update the description with the exact numbers from changes, but crit chance was doubled, and each tier does two more damage than the last, and the starting blade does +1 damage over vanilla. I'm actually going to be starting a new game soon, so I'll be able to get a better feel for how it works from the ground up.

Can we get some numbers on the changes, please?

Some people prefer to click subscribe and have that updated without the effort :)

ldejder there is really no need to have a mod for this.
Go to the XComGameData_WeaponData.ini and just edit the numbers your self.
I doubled the damage of all melee weapons to actually make them playable.

Would you be willing to post the details of what you changed? I am curious how much you buffed the numbers and crit.
