It is such a relief to know my favorite mod is still alive.
Also, I am here to offer some advice about item balance. I would say it is good to converge into simplicity since it would be easier to maintain balance comparing with 0.27+ version. However, I do notice there are still some items missing the twitch. For example, the native great axes have less swing power, slower speed and shorter reach than a lot of 2h swords, which doesn't make sense at all. In this case, I would suggest either reduce the dmg/reach/speed of those swords or change the axes dmg type from cut to pierce to match the fact they are better in armor penetration than swords (if not used to thrust). Similar things happen to some non-native polearms. It does not make sense to be able to swing a 4m solid pole at the speed of daggers unless it's for the sake of balance.
Anyway, thanks again to provide us this great mod and be willing to keep going. Please let me know if I can get to help with the progress.
