[Genesis/Clifford Series]

In this raid you can acquire genesis weapons from drop and collect sheet! These weapons have three garbage unique potentials:

1. Increase damage to Dudu and Monica by 10% Increase success rate by 10% when affixing this weapon.
2. Heal Party members a small amount every 30 seconds (stackable) and increase Party members' damage by a small fraction (cannot be stacked).
3. Doubles the effect of Attack affixs on this weapon.

Genesis weapons can also be upgraded to Clifford weapons with 120 Clifford Fuse. You can acquire 1 Clifford Fuse per clear.
Clifford weapons have the exact stats and potentials as Genesis weapon and can be downgraded at no costs.

Genesis units also does not drop from the quest.

So if I'm understanding this correctly....

Potential 1 would be used to better affix the weapon itself.

Once desired affix are established you'd pick the other two:

Have the more support based Potential that can stack a Resta like heal every 30 seconds..... and buff party members (not stackable)

or...

go full DPS and double w/e attack affix you have on. Which assume only affects stuff like Power,Tech, Shoot.
So if you had 150 Atk from affix the potential would push it to 300?


If it works that way on paper how dramatic increase is that?

[Arada]

Not very dramatic. More like dramatically underwhelming.

Well, should be depends on class-combo or weapon-type ...... some might go with 4k Atk (buffed) ......
Though should normally it's around 3k .... I guess around 5% (can be a bit more or a bit less) with 150 Atk affix .....

That sounds sort of minuscule considering that most newer 13* average 12% + Attack passively and that would be only a 5% increase (If using 150 atk as an example) if that's all the potential does.

Of course it's all speculation. On paper though doesn't sound like its all worth it....unless of course the base attack on each weapon was stupid high by comparison lol

As funny as it would be to potentially pass 5k t atk as Fo/Te I'm pretty sure that one pot is actually god awful.

Actually, the blog post on Bumped about the third potential states "Doubles the effect of Special Abilities (ATK / DEF )" implying that it at least affects DEF as well as ATK. If it also doubles other stats like PP and HP and affects things like Phrase Weak, then it could be somewhat interesting (academically anyway).

Honestly, though, these weapons need all three potentials combined into one to be at least somewhat compelling.

Or they need stupidly high attack values, and I mean near or above the attack values that known 14*s have, but that probably shouldn't happen in principle.
