i have no idea really, i would also have to set up a fifth weapon slot for the weapon of choice, or i could have 2 blue mana weapons or something but i still have no clue how to do that, theres a neoworm resource on here with a dragonclaw for the fighter, and i kind of got it to work but all of the other weapons listed came up as errors, so maybe the dragonclaw could be another new weapons ? i mean i still have to figure things out so it works properly in the mod

Well, Carnage Galore did it that way, having two weapons on each slot, so it does work. I have seen that resource, personally I find the Dragonclaw to be quite fitting for the fighter, but it is one of the most often reviled additions in mods for some reason because "the fighter can't use magic" or whatever. But yes, I think it could work.

yeah i dont understand that, he CAN use magic, he just has a smaller amount than the cleric and mage so i dont get it really. i think it would be a good weapon

If he couldn't use magic, none of his weapons would be able to fire projectiles. It is indeed a silly way of thinking, but yes, it could be a good weapon: Weak but fast, ideal for taking down afrits, gargoyles and priests.

i personally always thought that the attack sound of the dragonclaw was extremely loud and obnoxious but it has grown on me, and tbh its the perfect ranged weapon considering how accurate it is, it might as well be a medieval sniper rifle

It's accurate so long as you know how to use it. Both it and the Elven Wand fire a pinpoint first shot, but the longer the attack button is held and the more successive shots are fired, its accuracy diminishes.

Its accuracy is indeed all over the place, if you go trigger happy with it. Try shooting and leaving about half a second between shots, aim straight at what you wish to shoot and you'll see that it's actually a very good weapon.

It's the same with the Dragon Claw: Short bursts, 2 or 3 shots and you'll get near pinpoint accuracy. And neat, do you intend to use undead knights as well, and small golems, and other monsters?

Just like the Bride said on Kill Bill: First move one finger, after that, the rest are easy.

Or, barring knowledge on pop culture, once you figure one out the rest are a cakewalk.

Capital. It's a good leap forward I believe, having the monsters and creatures out of the way.
