Hi! I was just thinking that maybe could be viable to make Unarmed for a melee combat option, like a monk style.
Making the damage based on 10% strength rather than 10% dex. And having a percent of the damage based on your arms values, in Skyrim i think they made based on the armor value, but i think the arms weight more realistic. The havier your gloves more damage it will cause. Blocking should be viable too, as long as you are wearing both plate arms.
This way to deal more dmg people could use heavy plate arms and have to use light armor to balance weight. And if there will be fist weapons in the future probably they are going to have a diferent skill, since fist weapons are slashing and piercing attacks and more dex based, and unarmed punching is just blunt.
