What is better? Real value or the %

Post by RedHead »

What eqipment is better to buy?
That which has better real value or better % ?

Example:

200-250 (+10%)
or
190-235 (+80%)

Which one is better?
Does the +80% mean that the value is in reality 342-423?

Sorry for asking such nobish equestions, but I really don't know what should i buy anymore :banghead:
Until now i was trying to buy equipment with better % but now one of my friends told me it's better to buy equipment with higher normal values.

Plz help :oops:

The +% after say physical attack is as follows, or at least something similar.
Let say we have a Level 42 glavie with 220 and +0% phys attack.
So we +1 the glavie, will give us say 240 phys attack (still +0%) however instead of +1'ing the weapon we adjusted the phys attack %age, to around 40% we would still gain that 240 phys attack.

Hopefully you got that. I suck at explaining stuff.

Around 40% is the equivalent to an extra level on the weapon, so theoretically (if you have had +100%) you could have the damage of a +2.5.

Hope this helps.


Also, just as a reminder, the +% is allready shown the in the attack value, its not hidden. Good luck.

The % makes the real value. So it's basically the same thing. And offcourse you'd buy the one with the higher value...!!

+1. In other words, the percent affects the damage that is shown. So you usually buy the weapon with higher damage.

Thank you for the reply :love:

So far that i folowed is (at least i hope i got it right): the % value ads aditional dmg if it is high enough. As such follows a weapon/armor with higher 'real' value (but lower %) is better than one with a lower value and higher %.

Example:

In this case Nr. 2 is better than Nr.1

Well i hope i got it right :D

I'm also intersted what does the reinforce value do :?

ya i dont really get it either....maybe goes like
base weapon attack power(may not always be the same through the same weapon)
then plus the percentage, which, depending on the base value, while increase the attack power be +X%
that mayb y there are different statistics, even through a better %
but i dont no, maybe theres another variable in the equation :?
