Heroic weapon idea
What if there was a heroic version of every melee weapon that allows you to change the defense and the stats to your liking, obviously have restrictions based on defense, like block weapons have lower speed for example, and then you can adjust the stats just a few points to your liking. So hypothetically you could have a power sword with 18 strength 10 speed and 2 cleaving potential on fencing. Or 20 strength 3 speed and 17 cleaving potential with block, all while being 1 weapon.
Just a thought to really add to customization
