first off: I'm not a weaponsmith, so I hope you don't mind me offering a quick suggestion:

- a list of every weapon with how good it can commonly get without extra enhancements or uber resources and the like, just what you could find at the weaponsmith next door.

I know having tried 7 differentcombat disciplines and more different weapon types, I would have greatly appreciated being able to check here what to look for on a vendor, and if I should buy it there or look for another vendor. It saves me long searches and browsing many empty and crap-quality vendors, and it saves weaponsmiths many questions they get every four minutes.

How good can a long vibro axe get? Im 2013 Pikeman now and I still don't know. After trying to find curved swords, two handed curved swords, a scythe, power hammers, vibro lances, vibro knucklers and at least 5 different kinds of ranged weapons over the course of my game-time, I have simply given up trying. I know getting the high-end weapons would get me there quicker, but I can't bring myself to finding the good vendors anymore. Not after finding that the only decent quality vendors I had found were now gone or empty.

While most players who ask the annoying questions will not visit the forums for answers, it will be a great help to some players like me.

It sounds like a good idea at first but it would probably irrelevant to many as resources vary greatly between servers. Someweapons were (or still are) even uncraftable on certain servers. It might be something you could get an ambitious WS on your particular server to post in the forums and keep updated along with prices or something. Hmmm.

People are not interested in average from my experience. Then to add to that some weapons have averages that do not read right. The average dh17 will do min damage of 38 because it is the novice weaponsmiths choice. When infact without loot components and some effort you could get a minimum damage of a hundred. Though if your server never got a decent conductivity oq metal you will never see a base dam 100 model. On sunrunner its feasible and common to make 120 min damage scatter pistols. While if another server never got any good doonium you might be looking at 112 being the best.

So keeping these things in mind servers will have different average and high stats. So you would need to post different stats for each server change it regularly, and maybe even put in a note about the focus the community is putting towards this or that weapon.

Sounds like a good idea but in practice its a nightmare, as a combat part of your fun is becomeing familiar with what a good weapon is. Lets not try to distill the entire game down to rudimentary equations.

points well taken, I wasn't aware of the various resource spawns that might not even be on a server. The main idea was to get a feel of what to look for. I don't actually know any weaponsmiths, so I need to find weapons by scavenging around vendors or bothering weaponsmiths personally. If I'm standing at a vendor where they have LVA's 50-200, I could come to the list and find that 100-350 is quite doable, ergo, I don't buy from that vendor and move on.
