Hello! As per our previous discussion, I'm ready to give my general thoughts on how the weapons numbers should look in order to provide a balanced experience with them compared to vanilla weapons without completely making vanilla weapons worthless.

Knife
• Work: 30
• Material: 30
• M. DPS: 6.5
o Penetration: 18%

Short Bow
• Work: 40
• Material: 30
• M. DPS: 4.5
o Penetration: 13%
• R. DMG: 11
o R. Downtime: 3s
o Range: 23
o Accuracy: 75% / 65% / 45% / 25%
o Penetration: 16%

o Accuracy: 75% / 60% / 35% / 10%

(Notes: You have to put in these accuracy values, same as any ranged weapon to maintain balance or it treats them as 100%)

o Range: 15
o Accuracy: 80% / 75% / 55% / 30%
o Penetration: 25%
o Stopping Power: 1.0


FINAL NOTES

These numbers make each and every weapon a viable option with its own unique position in the weapon chain without making any one individual weapon, especially those of pure ranged or pure melee, worthless.

I forgot to mention. All the stats here are based on material used being "Steel" assuming the weapon had a material variable.

BTW: Material on the javelin should be 60 not 630... lol
