    Upgraded Terpsichore performance doesn't match what is listed on weapon

    Platform: PC (don't think it matters)
    ISP: Comcast
    Type of Internet Connection: Cable
    Internet Connection Speed: 20Mbps down, 4Mbps up
    Date & Time: Any
    Frequency: Always
    Character Name: Vyvian
    Race: Hume F
    World: Sylph
    Main Job: DNC
    Support Job: any
    Area and Coordinates: Any
    Party or Solo: Any
    NPC Name: N/A
    Monster Name: Any
    Steps:
    1. After finishing the quest for Terpsichore, I began Trial of the Magians to upgrade it to the current level.
    2. Upon reaching the level 80 version of Terpsichore, the stats on the weapon change. Particularly Augments "Steps" II
    3. Augments Steps originally augmented steps by providing the user 1 additional finishing move (3 instead of 2), as long as the effect on the monster was not already maxed out. This effect did not change, despite the text notation that the effect was boosted to level 2.
    4. There is a limited number of people who have completed Terpsichore (4 I think on all servers combined according to census), a lack of information on Community sites may indicate that these extremely few players may also not be English speaking players, and as such (for either reason), there isn't anyone else to talk to about what is supposed to be the benefit.
    5. I performed several tests on Steps performance using Box Step on my own to attempt to discern an unknown effect. The strength of Box Step is unchanged, the duration of Sluggish Daze is still 1 minute, no other primary attributes are adjusted on the enemy (STR/DEX/etc), enemy attack remains the same.
    6. Given there is no change despite the text notation (which continues to III and IV at 85 and 90), there are 2 conclusions. The notation of an enhancement is an error, there should be no number because the effect is not supposed to improve, or the development team intended some kind of benefit that isn't happening.

    Wrong section. This isn't a bug, but a request for clarification.
    It should be in Items&Crafting I reckon.
