Five checks for your copy
- 01Meet the shown requirements
Do not assume another copy or an old database has the same requirement line.
- 02Test the full attack chain
Try standing, sprinting, dodge, charged, and recovery attacks before spending scarce materials.
- 03Check equip-load impact
Evaluate the entire loadout, including the off-hand and armor, rather than this slot alone.
- 04Inspect rune costs
Make sure Focus, Stamina, or Health costs fit the resource loop your build can sustain.
- 05Upgrade only after comparison
Compare another copy at the same level and rarity before treating a displayed damage number as the weapon’s ceiling.
