I already have a couple of volunteers who are helping out, and for anyone else who would like to contribute, I'd like to offer a primer on how to test and submit data to me if you wish.
To start with, I need the following information:
1. Race, Lvl, Str, Dex, Con
2. Prac% for weapon and shield parry if using one - for both, the higher the prac% the better
3. Specify posture if a Master, ride level if riding, H/H status of weapon, total weight
5. The weapon's weight, whether it is 1-handed, 2-handed, or 1/2-handed (some may have changed).
6. If you're feeling generous, you can include things like rent cost, item value (how much it sells for in rent), keywords, and ground description, though these are secondary concerns for now.
For less ambiguity, have all items either worn or in worn packs, then take stats in all 4 moods with no weapon wielded.
Then wield it and take stats in all 4 moods again.
I've got a spreadsheet set up that I use to derive the weapon stats from that, so just send me the raw stat command output for those 8 things for each weapon.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and thank you in advance for any help offered.
Thanks for contributing!
