Vanilla: Simply increases range to 275 to match the longest melee weapon range and feels about right with the longer chainsaw model Vanilla VR: Increases range to 400 which seems to be a good point at which the length feels much more intuitive in VR Buffed: Same range increase as vanilla, but increases minimum damage to 90 to match highest minimum damage melee weapon, and decreased charge time to one second to match melee with lowest maximum charge time VR Buffed: Buffed damage stats with VR range
