Weaken is a stun that slows movement to a crawl and prevents fighting back, which we might have problems with if it can be applied repeatedly. A different system like recoil can apply slowdown, while also having a capacity to disarm someone. It might be preferable here.

Flat stat check? Shouldn't there be a Prob()?

I would usually agree with it, but we should avoid any kind of RNG in PvP (it is PvP). This is fine currently, or the damage can just start to decrease after certain VIG (so example: godlike req (80 iirc) at 40 VIG it starts to decrease, at 60 VIG damage is halved, at 79 you get like 2 brute; The mace barely grazes you!)

Making the weapon have no effect though is definitely not fine.

Changelog
🆑 Cheesepizza2, Doster-D
add: Added a new mech weapon: the NT "Warhead" mace! In its mace mode, it will absolutely obliterate structures and people. Using it in hand will convert it to a flail that does less damage but has a longer range and weakens + knocks back targets.
add: Added a new mech weapon: the BFG! After a lengthy charging period, this massive cannon shoots a massive bolt of plasma energy that does loads of damage in a wide radius.
add: Added a new mech weapon: the mounted crossbow! Insert in materials to load as crossbow bolts - the harder and heavier the material, the more armor penetration and damage it has respectively.
