Rating Criteria for Best Weapons

Focus on Main/Substat Boosts

Since a character’s attack power increases when their Main and Substats are raised, we prioritize weapons that boost these stats. Weapons that enhance the Main stat are especially strong, as they have the greatest impact on attack power.

Works With Many Characters

There is a tendency for characters to have specific Main/Substats based on their weapon type, so weapons that easily enhance those stats for that weapon type are rated highly.

Note!	For example, since many Sword characters have Agility as a Main/Substat, swords that provide an Agility UP are rated highly.

Character Synergy Also Counts

Whether a weapon can unlock a character's full potential is also a key rating factor. Weapons that have strong synergy with powerful, highly-rated characters receive a higher rating as well.
