I honestly do not know if this should be here, please tell me if it is in the wrong place.
That said, I do have a query. I have been looking and I have found some good plugins that will serve my other characters very well (the equip skill system by Moogle_X does what I need for them very nicely), however, my main character, (and another to a lesser degree), has a different type of skill set. Basically she has no skills, not even basic attack, but each weapon she gets, gives her a different skill set.
For instance, one might be ice-based, and give her mainly 'slow' def buffs for the enemy and uses ice/blizzard attacks. Another might be wind-based, and give her 'haste' buffs for the party and wind/tornado attacks. It goes without saying that the weapons also give basic attack and defense as well. Also, as she levels up, she can access more of the weapon's skill set, like at low levels, she can only use a singe ice attack, but level up to mid-10's maybe, and she can use an aoe ice attack.
The other may or may not be applicable here, now that I think about it, basically as each weapon he gets gets stronger, the greater the amount of life-steal he receives and maybe a stronger dark-attack. This may just be overcome with stronger life-steal on his weapons in the database though...
But the main character definitely needs the weapons for her to even have a skill set. If there is anything out there like that, by either a plugin, or by simple database manipulation, please direct me to it, thank you.
EDIT: Just thought of this. Instead of getting skill points, like the rest of the characters who can use the SP/JP or whatever to equip their skills, she will get weapon points, and level up her weapons in the same way.
