The Lightsaber

@najibes
You gotta find the mod in the steamapps/Workshop/content file first. Kenshi is 233860. The mod is 1590013305. Once you find it, copy it to the Mods folder in the Kenshi exe file. From there, rename it to the inside contents name, launch the game to let it run, Close the game and then go back into FCS and it should be there to edit.

how do i edit the stats? i have nothing in my mods folder except for the readme.txt

All swords give too large debuffs, is is more profitable to use other weapons os the type blade 1 and higer class.

I feel like lightsaber should be the one weapon which drastically changes performance with wielder's skill level. In hands of someone with barely any dexterity or training it should act sort of like martial arts, hurting the owner in the proccess. But near the skill cap it would absolutely shine, outperforming everything, even falling sun. I wonder how difficult it is to implement.

Love the mod ! Good job on it ! Though since the light saber lacks the damage of a actual light saber I just duke my swords and melee attack to about 600 on blades and 1200 in attack . I actually edited my stats with a alternate editor just to be able to feel like a real light saber . It is nice to have it balanced though As a user I can always edit my own game attack and damage to my own flavor . Its like a good gumbo with very little salt . People want more ? Here is the salt add more if you want it . :-D

@iBenToxin Then just open the mod and change the stats, takes 30 seconds.

I would've downloaded this but the stat decrease is dumb as hell. We are looking to download a lightsaber without some weird attempt to balance it.

@Yuricon how did you cancel the negative defense?

It doesn't make sense that a light saber reduces its holder's defense. In Star Wars, a Jedi can even use lightsabers to block bullets... So I canceled the negative-defense property when I was using the mod. Besides that, the mod is amazing.

It would be cool that instead of starting with them that you could find them out in the world and take them from whoever has them.
