Just because that's the highest you see in the game, doesn't mean that's all it can go.

Plus each "Rank +" doesn't even boost significantly for some skills or at all, because it's in a broken state.

I think its because since thats the highest POTCO goes, it makes us feel like it is the perimeter which we cannot pass, so we tihink (whether we realize it or not) that anything with more than +5 must be overpowered and unrealistic.

They could always change the damage values for all weapons in skills though.

Instead of rank 8 for "Sweep" skill dealing 5k damage, they could easily make it weaker with a future update.

The future update could reduce its damage to 2k, like it was on rank 5 in the past, but call it rank 8 anyway.

This is hard to example, so I put another example here:

Patch 1020:

"Viper's Nest" (+5): 5000

Patch 1100:

"Viper's Nest" (+5) = 3500
"Viper's Nest" (+8) = 5000

See how they could easily change the damage and still call it +8 even though it has +5 old damage at +8?

Cutlass of the Atlantic
Type: Legendary cursed blade
Gold selling: 2000

Attack: 130
Special Abilties:
Mariner's Look


Mariner's Look: The wielder of the sword slashes the enemy in slow motion, and along with it, you will see an hologramic image of a coral reef, blooming with fish, and kelp, and you can see a manta ray in the back. When the slash is over, the image is also. The damage is 2500.

It also has a ability of Suffocation.

Suffocation: When used, the player brings up the sword , and swings it like a bat. The enemy then is cursed by a Suffocation curse, which makes him suffocate, like he is underwater. The enemy also has animation when this happens. The enemy grasps his throat and doesnt attack for 10 seconds. Then the curse stops. Each second, it does 100 damage.

It can only be found while FISHING.

The sword looks like a rusty old sword, and you can see the water on it (Like when you see the water riples on the side of something in the water) flickering about.

Give these new weapon ideas creative abilities like:

Take out (name goes here) with a 2% chance of boosting your pirate's strength and health points.

/idea

Make them creative like that. Don't just stop at "stun" and "Damage". We already have tons of weapons in the game that are like that D:

Kunai
Famed Cursed Throwing Knives

I like the kunai, and the staves are an arc about 100 degrees wide, and slightly longer than wither's range.

I wonder why there aren't any voodoo staff enemies. Those would be real cool.
