== Item Identification (Arms Lore) ==
'''Important:''' None of the material, quality, or innate combat effects will apply if the gear is not identified. A character must successfully use the ''Arms Lore'' skill (or an Item Identification method) to reveal the item's properties. If a weapon or armor lacks the "identified" attribute, it will behave purely as a basic piece of equipment, granting zero bonus damage, extra defense, or special procs.

== Innate Weapon Effects ==
Regardless of the material they are forged from, certain weapon types possess innate baseline bonuses that reflect their combat style and shape. 

* '''Staves''' (Quarter Staff, Black Staff, Gnarled Staff, Shepherd's Crook): +10% Weapon Parry (Block) chance.
* '''Forks''' (War Fork, Pitchfork): +15% Weapon Parry (Block) chance.
* '''Dagger:''' +5% Critical Hit chance.
* '''Fencing Weapons''' (General Fencing): +9% Critical Hit chance.
* '''Kryss:''' +13% Critical Hit chance.
* '''Spears''' (Spear, Short Spear): +15% Critical Hit chance.

== Crafting Quality Bonuses ==
A weapon's crafted Quality directly enhances its combat capabilities. As the craftsmanship tier increases (from Regular to Exceptional), weapons gain scaling bonuses across the board.
