Comparing and improving weapons
Compare a weapon's actual bonuses with the current build. Perfect Block Window, stamina costs, charge restoration and ability cooldown can matter alongside damage. Upgrade a useful weapon through a blacksmith so that an early find can keep pace with later encounters.
The named catalogue below records class and rarity. Numerical damage and percentage bonuses depend on the displayed item state, so the table does not treat one equipment snapshot as a universal value.
