Quote:Ah ha! This makes more sense. I was wondering about the "A B C D E" indicators; now I think I can wrap my head around this a little bit. So you really can trick out your character for a specific weapon!

Ya its pretty crazy, thats why everyone talks about strength builds or arcane builds.  Mine started as a skill build but has evolved to be skill, strength, arcane.  The souls games have more options as well.  Basically any weapon that has an S or an A can be a top weapon on the right build regardless of the weapons base physical damage stats.

 

You can also screw yourself over pretty well by investing in the wrong stats or switching to the wrong weapon for your build.


The souls games also have high physical damage weapons with no scaling, like I said of all the weapons in the game probably about half have a chance to be a top weapon in the game depending on your build and like the souls game I'm sure there are weapons that look good but lack scaling.
