Negative percents

[RagMasterRappy]

I found a rare with a negative percent. Has anyone else found anything that has a negative percent?

I think I have a Custom Ray 00 with -5% A-Beast... What's up with that?

You couldn't of found it with -%s, no ?SW or ???? weapon comes with -%s on GC. What has happened is that you've tekkered the weapon into a -%. This happens because the game randomly gives ?SW and ???? weapons -/+10% (in sets of 5, meaning you could get -/+5% or -/+10%) when tekkering. This doesn't, however, give weapons that have a 0% in a spot a %, it only effects %s on the weapon as a ?SW or ????.

EX:

Your Varista says -5/15/5/0 so when you found it the base %s were 5/25/15/0, so when you tekkered it lost 10% to the stats with %s. If you continued to tekker it, you could of gotten a 15/35/25/0.

PS: ?SW do not come with grinds anymore, so all ?SW after tekkering will always be un-grinded.
