Rebalance weapon tiers via quantitative DPS/range/accuracy/pool scoring
tools/score_weapons.js ranks the arsenal with a behavior-aware model: effective DPS (bounce/boomerang/AoE/DoT multipliers), real engagement range, spread-based accuracy, and damage pool per ammo load. Tier moves: - Cleaver Cadence 0->1 (440px range + return re-hit outguns the starters) - Bile Blunderbuss 1->2 (134 effDPS + slow + pools is secretly a heavy) - The Cauterizer 2->3 (252 effDPS, highest sustained DPS in the game) - The Tenderizer 2->3 (134 effDPS AoE, outscores Spinal Tap) Tiers now: T0 repeater/marrow, T1 cleaver/saw/hemophage/eye, T2 bile/guthook/fleshmasher/trapqueen/redhand, T3 cauterizer/tenderizer/ spinaltap/swarmjar. Smoke test pins the 2/4/5/4 distribution.
