Thread closed. Nothing kills them. Even fire is hopeless to these beasts. But can someone explain how whips smash limbs off?
Whips usually don't smash limbs off in my experience, but when they do it's because they have an incredibly small contact area. Whips have a contact area of 1, while scourges have 10. This gives whips 2.5x the mass/contact area as warhammers, which, practically speaking, makes them more like spears than hammers.

Also, you neglected to answer my question earlier  ???

They are unkillable. Nothing kills them. Only slows them down.

can't you like make a thing that resembles a hammer, but has a relatively small contact surface ( example: 1 cm square) ? and add another blunt attack that uses the other part of the hammer/thing that has a bigger surface are.

then (as far as I understand it) you have a weapon that can sever off limbs (or something, still considered blunt attack (if you specify it) by the raws) and that can smash bones)


alternatively make a dwarf man portable weapon that shoots ammo the size of a necromorph.
