What does that ";" mean in the damage field?
So : Damage is not ONE fix value.

No, it means it's 49. Whoever coded that entry decided to comment 56. Anything after the semicolon doesn't get processed.

I COMMONLY comment out values as I try and find the best value for the weapon.  I comment it because if I want to go back to the previous value, its still there :)
