Weakspot Improvements

[Deleted member 44]

Weak spots should be doing the maximum damage of a damage variation range. It makes no sense that I can weak spot a target in the head for less damage than a normal head shot.

I disagree. Weakspots are not critical hits, they're amour penetration procs. Your weapon skills tighten the min damage variation you're seeing. Assuming you're talking about archery, at 100 archery on a dummy I get variance of around 1-2 damage (obviously dummies have 0 mitigation).

Also, afaik weakspots on archery is not 100% pen. It's 70% however, I'd argue your over-dramatizing doing less damage on a weak spot and if it is, then this is a bug or you're not maxing your archery.

Let longbow ws for like a stagger or if you hit a mounted and ws on the head they get staggered and they lose contol of the mount for a two to three seconds. Stagger on FF would be maybe 1 second.

LOL No. My archery is max. I'm saying that it should be have a penetration effect while also having the max damage in it's range. Essentially the same effect that riposte has after a parry without calling for the extra bonus damage.

Please no. Long bows are already devasting enough. Also, you can weak spot with long bows if you use broadhead arrows, but I don't know why you would ever do that considering long bow arrows boost damage by like 20.
