Item.template is now the cache template from CObjectTemplate.lookup
instead of the legacy DB ItemTemplate, so item.template.cacheTemplate.X
becomes item.template.X. MobLoot, LootManager, ItemManager.isTwoHanded/
isShield and CombatManager.getSwingAnimation take a CObjectTemplate.
No value changes: every getter already read the cache template through
the bridge, and the lookup resolves the same 7586 ids as
static_item_templates with the same item_type (offline parity p17.py,
0 differences).

CombatManager shield checks, weapon skill/mastery lookups in
AbstractCharacter, armor defense and PlayerCharacter.validEquip read
getItemSkillUsed/getItemSkillMasteryUsed. Offline parity (p15d.py, 7586
rows): 0 mastery differences; skill used differs only where the legacy
loader blanked it.
The cache keeps "Cloth" (226 ARMOR templates), which the legacy loader
turned into "". Cloth is a placeholder in Skills.cfg that no character
has, so getArmorDefense now checks for it explicitly and still returns the
flat defense rating. No weapon uses Cloth and no power equip prereq names
it, so the other sites behave the same.
Value changes:
- 195340 Fortified Dragon Plate Helm of the Lion: skill used is the
unresolved hash "2624663" instead of "". Defense is still the flat
rating (no such skill), but players wearing it now hit the
"armor equipped without the necessary skill" error log.

isTwoHanded, validForSlot, getSwingAnimation and the mob equipment set
read getItemEqSlotsOr/And, which drop the exporter's NONE. Offline parity
(p15c.py, 7586 rows): 0 differences once NONE is ignored.
Value changes:
- validForSlot: items whose only slot is NONE no longer pass for slot NONE.
- getSwingAnimation: the 7 slotless weapons (Rock 19297, Arrow 25650,
siege ammo 29000/29010/29020/29030/29350) return the default 75 instead
of indexing their empty left-hand anim list.
- MobBase equipment sets skip slotless items instead of keying them under
NONE. No EQUIP booty entry references one (the 104 sets that do are ITEM
booty sets).

Range, speed, damage list and swing anims now come from
engine.parsers.objects.ItemTemplate.getWeapon(templateID). Non-weapons and
missing templates get an empty block, matching the legacy zero defaults.
Offline parity (scripts/p15b.py, 811 WEAPON rows vs COBJECTS/ITEM): 0
differences in speed, range, projectile, idle anim, damage list or either
anim list. No duplicate damage types exist, so sum vs first is moot; first
entry is used as before. 26 weapons (ammo, lutes, no-stats crossbows) have an
empty damage list, same as the DB. No value changes. No comparator removed.

Consumers of the legacy ItemTemplate item_wt, item_value and
item_base_name now read getItemWt(), getItemValue() and
getItemBaseName() on template.cacheTemplate.
Parity (offline, scripts/p14.py, 7586 templates): 0 differences in
item_wt, item_value and item_base_name. No value changes expected.

AbstractCharacter mob damage/ATR and CombatManager.getNaturalAttack now
read RuneTemplate._runes instead of the legacy ItemTemplate map.
Parity (offline, static_item_templates vs COBJECTS/RUNE, 2695 runes):
0 differences in rune_min_damage, rune_max_damage, rune_attack and
rune_naturalattacks. All 2366 runes with natural attacks use the
10-value layout. No value changes expected.

A siege engine switches to whoever damages it, player or pet, even when
it already has a target. Pre-roll melee retaliation, harmful-power
direct aggro (which also fires on misses) and Taunt no longer change a
siege engine's target. The attack timer is untouched, so a switched
engine still waits for its next cycle before firing.

Unarmed mobs now add their rune natural attack range in processAttack
and use it in getRange. Most melee runes have 0, so they are unchanged;
ranged plant mobs (Gasser, Spitter, Needler, ...) get 150, Shuggra 50.
Natural range is not subject to the unverified 80 clamp.

Siege engine range was hardcoded to 300. Read it from the rune natural
attack instead (350 for Trebuchet, Mangonel and Ballista), matching the
client's RecalcMinWeaponRange. Falls back to 300 if the rune has none.
getNaturalAttack now returns the whole entry so speed and range share
the lookup.

Extend getNaturalAttackSpeed to resolve the rune from the attacker type:
mobbase rune for mobs, race rune for players. Unarmed players now swing
at their race rune speed (20 = 2.0 s per hand) instead of a flat 5000 ms.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Unarmed mobs used a flat 5000 ms swing delay. Parse rune_naturalattacks
from the rune template and use its speed (x100 ms) instead, with the
AttackDelay modifier and 1.0 s floor applied as for weapons. Siege
engines now fire every 17.5 s (speed 175); most creatures swing every 3.5 s.
Falls back to 5000 ms when the rune has no natural attack.
