MonkeyWrench

• Extracted from: RustyMods' Almanac Class System

MonkeyWrench lets you temporarily convert two-handed weapons into one-handed weapons, making them usable in a dual wield setup (or just one-handed play). This is done via a key press when equipping, applying balance adjustments and a new skill.

Features

• Convert two-handed weapons into one-handed form using a configurable key (L.Alt).
• Converted weapons:
  • Use one-handed animations based on weapon type (sword, axe, club).
  • Apply damage modifier scaling (configurable).
  • Adjust stamina and eitr costs (configurable).
• MonkeyWrench skill increases weapon effectiveness when wielding converted two-handers.
• Tooltip indicator shows when a weapon is MonkeyWrenched.

Notes

• Only applies to non-dual items (excludes special items like Skoll and Hati, Berzerkr axes, etc.).
• Press the configured Keycode while equipping to convert.
• Unequipping resets the weapon to its original state.
• Balance factors are customizable via config:
  • Damage Modifier
  • Stamina Modifier
  • Eitr Modifier
• Conversion is blocked if the weapon’s required skill level (configurable) is not met.
  • Example: Sword Skill 5 < Required Level 10 → conversion blocked

Conversion Logic

1. When equipping with Keycode held:
   • Weapon type is overridden to one-handed.
   • Attack animations and chains are reassigned depending on skill type.
   • Damage is scaled by both the damage modifier and MonkeyWrench skill factor.
   • Stamina and eitr costs are multiplied by config modifiers.
   • Skill type is reassigned to MonkeyWrench.
2. Tooltip is updated to display ❖ MonkeyWrench ❖.
3. When unequipped, weapon stats and animations are restored.

Example (Skill 50)

• Damage Modifier: 0.75 (75%)
• Stamina Modifier: 0.8 (80%)
• Eitr Modifier: 0.8 (80%)
• MonkeyWrench Skill: 50 (≈ 50% = 0.5 SkillFactor)

Calculation:

1. Base damage = TwoHandedDamage * 0.75
2. Skill scaling = (BaseDamage) * (1 + 0.5 * (1 - 0.75))
   • = TwoHandedDamage * 0.75 * (1 + 0.125)
   • = TwoHandedDamage * 0.84375

Result: At skill 50, you deal ~84% of the original weapon’s damage one-handed.

Example (Skill 100)

• Damage Modifier: 0.75 (75%)
• MonkeyWrench Skill: 100 (≈ 1.0 SkillFactor)

Calculation:

1. Base damage = TwoHandedDamage * 0.75
2. Skill scaling = (BaseDamage) * (1 + 1.0 * (1 - 0.75))
   • = TwoHandedDamage * 0.75 * 1.25
   • = TwoHandedDamage * 0.9375

Result: At skill 100, you deal ~94% of the original weapon’s damage one-handed.
