You can make a waster to train with... that hits for 6.

Or you can make a stick which hits for 2, and costs alot less... with much less chance of accidental injury.

Surely a waster should only hit for 1?

why not simply train with sticks?

I think that was his point, that the wasters should have thier damage reduced.

Indeed, my point was that wasters should be 1 to make them more useful. Otherwise... why not train with sticks? Cheaper, and less damage... quite simply better.

Wasters are too powerful. Who would have thought I would have ever said that? They are solely training weapons, and should have a value of 0 or 1 to reflect that.

The difference should be in usage based deterioration. Sticks should deteriorate rapidly if used for battle training.

And don't you deal less damage with a bare fist than with a waster? It would be much better if barehanded fighting was a different skill (at least partially), then if you wanted to learn to fight with swords, you would have to use wasters.

using waster costs only 5% tiredness (i heard so)

Another option may be getting padded wasters... Waster + fur/cloth + 1 day labor = padded waster which does the same damage as a stick, but is better for decay reasons.

Then you heard incorrect - it uses the generates the same amount of tiredness as any other weapon

I should let Surly have his way every once in a while. I can't promise when we'll get to it (should be soon, but I get yelled at for making brash with the database. ), or what exactly we'll do, but there is no reason it will upset the balance of the Cantrian universe.

So... come on RD..

I would, but I'm still worried that I might accadentally ruin something in the game.

Plus wichita hasn't told me i could yet *looks around suspitiously*

Hey Wichita, thought about it enough for one of us to go in and change it?

Yay for the ever efficient RD!



Sorry guys, but seriously... what is there to think about once its been accepted?

It now hits for 1. Whack away.

Thank you.

This is especially good for those of us whom karma has a substantial loan
