I am thinking of grouping all standard weapons into one general type. Each weapon classification would have a preferred damage type. Swords would be slashing, bows would be piercing, hammers would be blunt, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then assign a preferred weapon damage type per class. When a class uses their preferred damage-type weapon they get a bonus for its use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A standard troupe fighter for example would get at least a 10% damage bonus when using slashing weapons. This could extend to penalties for using opposing damage types like blunt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The penalty could be greater than the bonus to help reinforce the use of appropriate damage types. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This could lead to a mastery system where a character could take additional skills\/training to improve or learn new damage types without a penalty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not to get off track, iron out the basics of the system first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Basic weapons would be listed under General. Basic Armor would follow this same path. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each weapon or armor would be assigned a class preference. When matching that class preference the character would enjoy a bonus. When not matching, the character would receive a small penalty for its use. If the item is in opposition, they would receive a severe penalty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All general weapons and armor would be under the same arch type. The bonus\/penalty would be assigned directly to the item in use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, how to make it work in RPG Maker \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Update: 05\/27\/2023 All weapon types will need to be grouped into their basic damage type. Blunt, Slash, Pierce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
