CC and Throwing capped to 200%

[Strike]

Close Combat and Throwing skills are both combat (support) skills, not actually main skill for anyone (else than CC/thrower characters). This suggestion is not to boost either skills, it just seem that 300% is too much for skills that doesn't use long range as main weapons skills (SG,BG,EW)

And also, you could give little extra range (+5 range) for all throwing weapons. Thanks for reading.

As a fan of Throwing, I'd appreciate bigger range for it. Throwing at the current state is kinda.. well, hard to play with compared to BG or EW or even SG.

Honestly, throwing is a joke. The only reason it is a tag skill is to take up space on the list. The best (and only) real use it has, is to finish off downed npcs to save ammo. You don't even need 50% of the throwing skill to level up to 3, killing rats. Dynacord was a nice attempt to even it out, but it is still so lacking that no body wants to touch it.

Either 1, do like strike suggested and cap it at 200 (or less) as a support skill,

Or 2, make some new throwing items that could balance the skill. Maybe smoke bombs/Tear gas, which would add the blinded status for a few turns or 10-15 seconds real time.

Thanks for pointing that out Strike, hopefully it's reworked next session.

I still hope melee and throwing will be viable one day.

As a support skill throwing would rock if there was a hotkey for throwing items.
Like, press G for grenades and you get the untargeted throwing courser without the need to equip them.

Already done, wait for wipe.
