I was told that extending 8* and higher weapons lowers the damage. is that true? I thougt the whole point of extending was to make the weapon more powerful. If there is a good tutorial vid about crafting out there, please share :3

It makes it more powerful. But on the other hand it gives a huge variance. So in hindsight, you'll be doing less damage on average.

(Also higher-end 10*s outdamage even the highest damage on a crafted 7-9*)

High level weapon has a built in -dex bonus, that keeps damage variance low.
By crafting it, you remove that bonus.

So for example, you can be origionally dealing around 1200~1500 damage with the uncrafted weapon.
After you crafted, let's say you gain 100 more atk, but the bonus is removed, so now you deal between 900~1600, thus less total damage

When you go to craft a weapon, it has the new (base) attack values on the recipe you are using. most low-tier 10*'s get a small attack boost when you craft at lv4, however the huge damage variation is almost never worth it

You didn't read what we said, did you?

Should've paid more attention to the info windows.

S-ATK of any Lv.1 extended 10* sword 464 (881 at +10)
S-ATK of any Lv.4 extended 10* sword 531 (1008 at +10)

Keep extending your weapon, you "could" get more ATK with an higher extend level. However, you'll need 500 DEX to use a Lv.4 extended 10* ... but like they said, just don't craft weapons if you are looking for damage.

craft units > good
craft weapons for utility (MKB, dash daggers ...) > good
craft weapons for the look > sure, go ahead
craft weapons for damage > nope
