I keep on looking at the horizon and seeing a nice planet which i would much rather live on then kenshi. does it got a name or anything

I have no problem destroying enemies with spiked clubs and heavy jittes.

Sure, they are maybe 10% less optimal than the minmax stick, but that really applies to every weapon in the game.

The low speed can be canceled by working up your MUSKLES. At high strenght they aren't slow at all. You can wear heavy armors like crab armor with dex penalties because you don't need dex.

You also often read about them being low damage.

Meitou heavy jitte has 2.60 blunt damage.

Spiked club has 2.00 + 0.66 = 2.66 damage

For compairson:

Nodachi has 2.64 damage

Naginata has 1.76 + 0.40 = 2.16 damage

Longsword has 2.20 + 0.30 = 2.50 damage

Horse chopper has 2.20 + 0.50 = 2.70 damage

Cleavers tend to hit a bit harder though.

So that doesn't seem too bad.

Also blunt damage is better against armor, spiked clubs have additional 30% armor penetration and heavy jitte has +8 defense which is pretty strong.

The non-leathal damage is very great too. You can capturing bounties alive, getting a lot of prisoners for training various stats, selling your enemies into slavery, keeping high rank enemies like Tengu as a living trophy, and most importantly, you get to peel the skin off your enemies while they are alive and in agonizing pain.

Am I missing something here???

I've seen a couple different types of Iron Stick in the vanilla game - the rusted PoS ones used by the Fogmen, that's easy, but I've also seen some Skeleton Smith ones in Scraphouse too. Is there any definitive list of what Iron Stick qualities can spawn in the base game? All the page says right now is "not all."

Is there a way to train Melee Attack above level 100 without using mods or FCS? If so, what is the maximum level?
