Curio's should get the weapon stat treatment

By that i mean theres been talk about a curio rework in the future and I think its high time it comes around. Being able to ensure your curios are actually maxed out opposed to being stuck in the old (and somewhat still around) ‘decimal issue’ kinda sucks.

Like its already a pain enough as is to get a maxed out curio (3 stam, 17 toughness, and 21 ho respectively) but getting a 3 stamina curio that doesnt actually get 3 stamina because of a decimal error is pain. Mister E describes it better in this video but basically darktides stat system is based on percentages. Which is okay and all, but the problem comes when it still takes into account the percentages between the percentages, aka decimals.like something being 30.456% instead of just 30%

This leads to rounding issues and stats not lining up with what they actually say they are. Is it a very minor difference? Yes, maybe. But at the same time, its still a pain for anyone looking to max out things to their absolute most. Or anyone who has crippling ocd (like me)

Not to mention it would be nice to be able to actually upgrade curios stats opposed to just having them be this really weird percentage value (like 21 or 17) even if i dont exactly know what a 500 stat value curio would look like as ive only found 430’s at absolute most.

Yes, yes they should.

Particularly since another class is coming out so there’s plenty of exposure to the pain of acquiring curios again…

Even sharing them across characters would be a boon.

TBF the stamina base is the only one where missing out on the max role is felt whatsoever, which could be fixed pretty quickly without the need of a rework.

I dunno like you’re right, this should be improved at some point, but even as someone who likes reworks as content I think they might wanna focus on some actually new stuff (that isn’t paid DLC) round about now.

See even the word rework itself is starting to feel weird I’ve read and typed it so much over the past year.

For reference, FS was supposed to change the curiosities along with the crafting system, but they missed some time and said they’d finish it later. Let’s be honest - they forgot and don’t care. And even if they remember, they’ll release this update AS A MAJOR PATCH, even though they’re actually overdue for it and it’s not a new patch, but a refinement of an existing one, just like the promised weapons for veterans. But we all know the outcome.
