Buffs and Nerfs for weapons: a quest for realistic handling

[Terco_Viejo]

Considering dimensions, weight and materials, I have gathered the weapons and organized them by groups modifying a few handling values (which should be checked imo). I have not included bows and shields for obvious reasons. I consider the javelins to belong to the 90-109 value group.



Edit: I share the unedited image with you so that if you wish you can modify the handling values at your discretion.

Nice work, as always
Having crushthrough in mind, this clearly shows why the Northern Maul, and especially the Highland Spiked Mace with its speed, are way too unbalanced at the moment, i had damage outputs in 1 crushthrough hit, while on foot (no horse acceleration boost), of up to 92 damage with these two weapons on 50 value of armor enemies.
Although i believe crushthroughs should be either very very rare ir non-exsistent using any other 2-hander other than those 2 (or any future mauls and hammers added).
This image and thread should be pinned in my opinio, so it can ve revisited anytime with ease, especially after each patch.

Thanks my boi.

As in other threads I have commented, there are inconsistencies between the handling-type of construction relationship. I am not a crush supporter but I could understand it in the following scenario:

A heavy menavlion nerfed as I comment around values 47-48 of handling being swung in such a way that it would impact against the blocking of a 1h sword; here I could understand the effect of this crush action.

There are a lot of inconsistences, in special with maces.

They should never be more manageable than a one-handed sword; basically because of their point of balance. The 1h maces (imagine the 2h...jessss) have their Pob at the opposite end, where all the mass is concentrated and therefore its recovery is much slower after a swing because it needs more energy. On the other hand a 1h sword (and 2h too) has its pob normally above the wrist.

Well the truth is that we have cases like western hammer with a surprising 95 handling and western mace with 94. This is madness XD.
