[Fern]

As far as I can tell the only people 'salting' over the mere idea of balancing this weapon like a normal sword are you and Fern

I've already said I don't mind adding STR to its scaling, such as 25% STR 50% SKI 25% LUC. I am not salting over the 'mere idea' of balancing a weapon, but I have to say that this comment of yours did irritate me a little. And just in case, if you are also accusing me of having an overpowered build from the Raijin... well, I don't even know where you're assuming that from besides just trying to give input on the thread.

Personal reaction aside, I just don't like the idea of it using high STR due to people that stat'd for it. They shouldn't just burn money or waste hours (days depending on situation) grinding over a scaling change. At least I believe so.

Money or time might not be worth much to you, but it is to others.
