Chopping weapons should do extra damage to grilles. - Danger Noodle - 07-10-2025
Certain weapons have the tag "Chopping" this causes them to deal quadruple damage to doors and all windows, this list includes: crash axes, fireaxes, scrap machetes, breaching hammers, csabers and a few others you typically won't see in a round. Notably as far as I know they do not deal increased damage to grilles so your crash axe can break a reinforced window in 4 hits and it'll take about that 5 to get through the comparatively weaker grille underneath it. The window damage was added so that breaching weapons would be more useful in scenarios with windows but making them the exact same as anything else vs what is underneath every single window is a bit odd. This shouldn't impact balance at all, if you have wire cutters you can get through one in less than a second so I don't see how this'd be a problem.
