Gauntlet Weapons by Nanonaitor

What this mod adds

• A complete gauntlet tier path that mirrors vanilla metal progression: Crude, Copper, Iron, Thorium, Cobalt, Adamantite, Mithril
• Proper crafting bench integration:
  • Crude is crafted at the Survival Workbench
  • Higher tiers are crafted through the Blacksmith’s Anvil under a dedicated Gauntlets tab
• Tier stats and recipes scale like vanilla weapon progression while preserving gauntlet-specific combat identity

Core combat style

• Fast, responsive punch loops designed for close-quarters pressure
• Per-click punching behavior for high APM melee play
• Shield attack (guard bash) that deals damage and launches enemies backward for spacing/control
• Charged strike system that lunges you in a straight line and can register up to 4 hits:
  slowing movement during contact helps all hits connect for massive burst damage
• Ultimate reworked into a healing payoff:
  activate at the right moment to recover health and turn fights around in a high-risk, high-reward playstyle

Gameplay instructions

• Primary Attack (Left Click): rapid punches for close-range pressure
• Guard / Bash: use defensively, then counter with knockback to reset spacing
• Charge Attack (Hold, then release): dash forward and multi-hit enemies in line
• Ultimate: consume full charge for a clutch healing swing in dangerous fights

Why play Gauntlets

• Ideal for players who want a relentless melee brawler experience instead of standard sword pacing
• Strong mobility + burst potential when charge timing is mastered
• Clean integration with existing crafting progression for smooth survival-to-endgame scaling
