[MA] Light Tomahawk - Rendar - 12-11-2014
Okay so, this skill is kinda awful currently.
So, as it stands this skill does
WPN PWR + STR + X ( Where X is 10/13/16/19/22-Torso Weight ) for 10/12/14/16/18 FP.
This is kind of ludicrous. The damage is paltry and unless you've got a healthy bit of FP, you aren't going to use it at max rank for almost double the cost and 12 extra damage.
I suggest that it be changed to something more like.. this.
WPN PWR + (40%/50%/60%/70%/80%) STR+ X ( Where X is [MAX BW- CUR BW + 2/4/6/8/10] ) at 8/9/10/11/12 FP cost. Meaning that while it scales properly, it won't absolutely murder your FP reserves to use it.
Discuss.

Because BW is tied to STR, this effectively gives Light Tomahawk up to 180% STR scaling. For an Autohit that only costs 12 FP, I think that's too much.
e.g.
Rank 5 Light Tomahawk
20 Power Fist Weapon
50 STR
BW 5/55 (50 STR + Rank 5 Packrat with a 5 Weight Weapon and 0 Weight Torso.) (Fist Weapons are fairly lightweight and the BW reduction from Fist Expertise, etc.)
Damage:
WPN Power + STR * 0.8 + (Max BW - Current BW) + Rank Bonus
20 + 40 + 50 + 10
120 Physical Damage.

Hrm. Maybe make it tied to CEL then?
WPN PWR+CEL*0.8+(MAX BW-CURRENT BW) without a rank bonus?

Nah, let's not have a trend of defensive stats also being able to deal damage.
Re: [MA] Light Tomahawk - Ranylyn - 12-12-2014
I agree that as it stands, Light Tomahawk isn't anything special.
However, tying it to BW also isn't a good idea, because as stated, that can get utterly ridiculous.
I propose simply lowering the FP cost ever so slightly. Using your 8-12 suggestion over the current 10-18 is a good idea.
