🔥 Why Attack Rating Matters
Your weapon’s Attack Rating (AR) is the raw damage number you see in the equipment menu. It’s the foundation of all damage calculations before enemy defenses and absorption are applied. By maximizing AR for your specific build, you can:
- Optimize stat allocation – Avoid wasting levels on stats that provide diminishing returns.
- Compare infusions – See how changing a weapon’s affinity affects its scaling and total damage.
- Plan for specific bosses – Tailor your damage type (Magic, Fire, Lightning, Holy) to exploit enemy weaknesses.
