I'm trying to come up with a weapon that uses agility instead of strength, without making it have to give the character a whole ton of extra agility.

Say I have a whip, the whip's damage formula is:

Code:
a.agi * 4 - b.def * 2
But I want the whip *itself* to have a strength of 20. If I add +20 to ATK, it doesn't do anything with this formula. If I add +20 to AGI, I outspeed and oneshot everything, plus that +20 doesn't show up in shops.

It seems to me the best solution would be if I could:

Set the whip's ATK to +20.

Then have a damage formula something like:

Code:
(a.atk - (base attack)) + a.agi * 4 - b.def * 2
Where (base attack) is what the character's ATK would be if he weren't equipped with anything. This would shift the +20 ATK of the bow to AGI when attacking. Though I don't know if such a variable or script call even exists?

Alternatively, if there is a variable for the ATK rating of the equipped weapon, I could do this:

Code:
(a.agi + (weapon.atk)) * 4 - b.def * 2
But once again, I don't know if a variable or script call for weapon.atk truly exists.

If I'm totally off the wrong track and y'all can tell me how to do this using things that actually *do* exist, I'm all ears.

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
