weapon's attributes - K_I_R_E_E_K - 19-10-2005
wich is the best special for a saber, dagger.........
for example... wich is the best special to have on a mechgun
also i would like to know if the special fire/shock damage are good in some way, because i have weapons with that atribute but they make a real low damage even on a machine (shock damage)
resuming i do almost 4x the damage with a normal atack wich has better acuracy then with a fire damage wich has less ata and power. (maybe i don't use them correctly).

Hehe... jarl
Well the Fire, Lightning, and Freeze specials' damage are based on your level. I remember when my Ramar first entered Ultimate at level 79 (my first ever character to get there) I had some Burning Gatlings, and they did more damage than my Heavy attack because my ATP was so low.
Other specials like the Bind ones do 1/2 damage of the Normal Attack, but can do a special effect. The HP drains will also take the HP that you gain from the enemy (so even if you do 0 damage, if you drain 120 HP, the enemy gets 120 damage).
Others like Demon's do a set % of the enemy HP (Shadow attacks would do 100%).
Then the ones like Charge that drain something, do a little less than double a heavy attack damage.
Then weapons that hit multiple enemies have special attacks that are split up:
- 1/2 - Daggers, Double Sabers, Twin Swords, Swords, Partisans, Launchers
- 1/3 - Shots, Mechs, Slicers
(There's probably more I forgot)
Some special weapon specials don't reduce though, and Charge, Spirit, and Beserk never do, and S-Rank weapons don't reduce either.
You too >_>

I'd suggest a Drain weapon because taking on bosses at low levels a Drain weapon can be a life saver, especially if you're an android or don't have Resta. This is best early on. Obviously a King's weapon would be brilliant as well. Nothing quite like levelling up without actually killing anything.

Drain is good if you're an android. But my personal favourite in teams, would be the paralising one!

Drain would be especially helpful for a long range weapon because it means you can heal out of danger, but it would still be useful to have Drain on any weapon really. I imagine a Drain Partisan would be a very quick healer.

Devil's and Demon's are usefull and they hit quite often too. You will still need a high ATA or hit% to make them effective though.
Paralysis can be helpful, just once again, make sure you have the ATA.
