I'd second Bastige on the bash, it does feel a fair bit worse than a heron medium/long for bashing, even after it has had its weight upped, which seems silly it being the abs version of a heron, could just be anecdotal though, unsure if you can see any given weapons bash stat, if such a thing even exists, or if it is just tied to the weaponsclass as a whole.

The bash stat for a weapon is:
((Weapon Weight * Player OB * 10)/150) + (Player PB/4)

The rest of bash calculation depends on level and bmi and opponent db, but the higher that above number is the better.

Malf is the best bashing weapon. KSword is second best.

The club bonus probably puts clubs over the top, but I'm not 100% sure. The best bashing club is a steel warhammer. Mauls are actually pretty poor bashing weapons.

Have to agree, unless they were changed tremendously, I could only ever stomach using a warmaul as a mounted abs master (+ mounted bonus + master bonus)

have to say I always felt I bashed way better with a maul than with malf, but thats all anecdotal I guess, malf never really felt that impressive bash wise. Also make malf a chain again!

How did you come up with that formula Zarth?

Naw, correct is:
(Weapon Weight/50) * (Player OB/3)) + (Player PB/4) - (Player PB*3/2)

You also forgot about clan bonus, which is substantial - same mod as mounted vs unmounted. Disappointing, Zarth.

So outside of it's relation to OB, STR doesn't factor into bash?

All of that is irrelevant. Bash is based on BMI. If your BMI sucks then nothing else matters.
