So, I’m thinking I’m not doing something quite right. I’ve used the grindstone a few times now and, while I’m not successful every time, I end up coming away with a sharpened blade evidenced in my melee weapon damage stat on my character sheet (Inventory).
Well, I was clicking around in the inventory because I discovered there are a lot of tabs that I never use, and I found the statistics tab. I wondered to myself, “Gee whiz, I wonder what the game tracks!” So, I started reading, but became confused when I got down to the Honing Attempts statistic. It seemed fine at 12, I haven’t tried much on this playthrough, but then the Weapons Sharpened Statistic was 0 (Zero).
I’ve received bonuses for sharpening it, but… am I doing it wrong? Can someone help clarify for me? Have I never fully sharpened a blade?
