Tinkering Mods Mod

Currently adds 6 new tinkering mods. The goal is to add mods unique to each weapon / equipment type.

Razor sharp / Razored
Requirements: short blade, not already sharp
Effect:
+2 to +4 base penetration, -2 to maximum penetration

Provides +2 below fullerite, +3 from fullerite to flawless crysteel, and +4 at zetachrome

Example:
(at 16 strength)
steel dagger
<- 4/7
razored steel dagger
<- 6/6

My take on a 'dexterity weapon' for caves of qud. The goal is to abstract a weapon sharpened but fragile and lightweight. Direct dexterity to penetration is too strong to exist.

Hefty
Requirements: cudgel
Effect:
+1 damage die
+1 slam distance

Example:
steel mace:
<3 2d2
hefty steel mace:
<3 3d2

The "sharp" equivalent for cudgels, instead raising damage consistency over potential. I might make it increase weapon weight at a later date for flavor.

Multinocked / Nocked
Requirements: bow with physical arrows
Effect:
+1 to +2 arrows fired each shot
firing weapon costs 10% more energy
arrows gain a minor spread pattern

+1 arrow below tier 5, +2 arrows at or above tier 5

Energy cost increase means you lose 1 turn every 10 turns on average at 100 quickness. This does not mean you lose 2 turns every shot, unspent energy carries over.

Originally planned for a mod splitting bows from rifles, which was taking far too long

Recurve
Requirements: bow with physical arrows
Effect:
Weapon no longer wildfires in melee range

Does what it says on the tin

Gorget / Gorgetted
Requirements: head armor
Effect:
Helmet takes up both head and face slot
Cannot be decapitated, face cannot be severed.

Friction grip / gripped
Requirements: hand armor
Effect:
+2-5 to saves against being disarmed

Formula is 1 + Tier / 2

Bayonet-fixed
Requirements: rifle
Effect:
After making a ranged attack in melee range, make a single short blade melee attack as if it came from your primary limb.

Damage / penetration is equivalent to a dagger 1 tier lower than the rifle.

Gyroscopically stabilized
Requirements: chest armor
Effect:
Adds power cell socket
Drains charge from power cell to prevent prone, knockdown, knockback, and other forced movement.

Yes, I DID just lose a 30 hour run to a Galgallim, why do you ask?

- Slowly add the WIP mods
- Add some user suggestions, if any catch my eye

Any element of this mod can be used without credit or permission, so long as you are not charging money for it.
