About The Pull Request

Using the tonfa is a nightmare. I understand it is intended to be used as a backup currently, but it doesn't do enough stamina damage to knock someone out usually requiring upwards of 6-7 hits.

Changing the value from 25 to 30 should make it actually be viable against unarmored targets instead of being a brig knockout joke. This is star far below the stun baton which deals 40 each hit.

Custom stamina damage to limbs and head is unchanged, due to my wish for it to be used for combos where you aim for chest then limbs for advantage instead of always aiming for head/limbs making you use it slower and depending on actual skill.
(limb stam is about ~18 against 30 on chest)

There is a bigger rework that I had in mind, but that will have to wait for a good coder. I also want everyone's thoughts on this and if you believe this will even make it viable.

Why It's Good For The Game

Makes alt batong decent again.

Actually the other hits deal even less than punch damage, this is kinda hilarious

Changed to reliable baton or a good backup. I would rather have player choose only one, but there will always be a way to have both due to plenty of normal batongs, so I decided against.

Without any protection,
4 hit stun to chest, 5 hit stun to other areas with arm being stunned after 3 hits and leg being stunned after 2 hits. Knockout is only usable during stamina knockout and is unchanged.

With protection add 1-3 hits depending on stamina value. (Syndie requires 7, Traitor requires 5/6 Which always is about 1, sometimes 2 more hits than regulat charged baton.)
