Quality and its effects
In the section Quality and strange moods it is mentioned that quality affects sharpness (base quality has "50%" sharpness, for example). I can't find any source for that, and it's a bit confusing. Later, on the Combat formulae section, that sharpness percentage is no longer used. In that section, I interpret that the used value is the raws number (divided by 10.000) and the weapon quality multiplier. If my understanding is correct, then either the sharpness % is not used (in which case I don't know why it would be there) or there is something missing to understand it correctly. --Jose96xd (talk) 14:10, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
