Alright , thanks for your example ! I guess it ' s not the same for everyone . <| sep |> That ' s not the actual base attack , as others have mentioned . You should know that the base attack of weapons depends on 3 things . The type of weapon such as short sword vs zanbato , level , and rarity unique , legendary , epic . If all 3 variables are the same between two weapons , they will have the same base attack with some rare exceptions . If two variables are the same but one differs , it ' s easy to figure out which weapon will have better base stats a level 85 epic zan will always have more base phys attack then a level 85 legendary zan or a level 80 epic zan . So your hypergrowth is a level 75 legendary weapon once it ' s done growing , which is decent , but 10 levels is a huge difference in the base attack of a weapon , even before we look at the other effects . This is just how more experienced players start looking at weapon stats at least in my discord , we look at levelrarityweapon type .
