All,
After the joy of having a finely crafted axe in the statting kit twice over the summer, I had proposed to up the weapon(s) in the human/seanchan statting kits.
The offensive bonus and damage on the quarterstaff have been upped. As a compromise, its parry has been removed. Its weight already was low, so it's not going to do well when bashing.
Additionally, the quarterstaff has been added to the warrior and rogue statting kits.
At least now, new players will have an easier time statting.
