Damage -2?

I know right? what do the negative damages mean-it's on several other pages? Null^(T-C) 15:58, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Argueably?

I knew someone was going to do this as it is hard to actually give a definite worst but in this case there really is no arguement. No weapon attacks slower or does less damage. --Moxxy 18:31, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Continuous swing, but now that I think about it, it's not arguable. I'll revert that. Null^(T-C) 18:33, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Quick question, would weakest or worst sound better? --Moxxy 18:36, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Probably weakest. Null^(T-C) 18:40, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

No Damage Modifiers

I just added that no damage modifiers other than "Broken" can be applied to the Wooden Hammer. This is strange and I've never seen it on any other item with damage, which makes this pretty unique. I tried some 500 times and never saw anything, so while not confirmed by anyone but me, I would appreciate a confirmation all the same. Thanks.

Answering myself, after modifying the Copper Axe, I came to realize that this happens because of the very low base damage. The modifiers have limits, even though they can change slightly to compensate for rounding. To change this item from 2 damage to 3 or 1 damage would be a difference of 50%, which is beyond the limits of any modifier other than "Broken." This is just my theory, of course, but it seems to hold true. Anyone want to verify or comment?
