There are 6 types of weapons in game. In the most cases two weapon types are assigned to one type of armor (katana is the exception) however there are 3 (4 with samurai) heavy armor classes and all of them are sword users (except samurai of course) so i came up with the idea of second weapon type attached to heavy armor classes. This would also make opportunity to add some new heavy armor users. I actually got two ideas anyway here they are.
The first one is Clubs:
example of T0 Club
These would be slow but hard hitting weapons. Upon hitting it would create a small splash (like the ones created by candy rock but smaller) instead of shooting regular projectile
And the second one is Axes:
example of T0 Axe
Im not sure about these maybe something with lower dmg but longer range.
Sprites are not perfect they are here to make the post more interesting.
