[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[Miste]

All jobs use the exact same formula for damage, which uses Attack Power, Weapon Damage and Determination

You're still advocating changing SE's original system which they are way less likely to accept or do. Which is why I don't agree about my method being more problematic than yours.

Changing all those attributes still entails more work than just adding a line of code to the DF script which simply checks the item level of the weapon you have equipped.

Not "as good as 375 script acc", but not "better than all your accessories combined, including the belt"

homogenizing the value of all equipped items.

^this quote is what you said. Homogenizing means to make everything uniform which means to make it all equal or the same. So based on what you said to me then yeah how I replied about it ruining the relic quest because the work needed wouldn't be worth the effort/time for a piece that was the same as a 375 scripture accessory is accurate..I mean based on what you told me you wanted anyway.

If that isn't what you meant then I guess we just confused each other.

And once the weapon's weight is increased, you'll have people joining that will suddenly won't have enough HP because they will be able to enter will even lower armor than now.

I never said to change the weapon's ilevel weighting....not sure where you got this from.

Adding a line to the code for the DF to check the weapon slot has nothing to do with changing the weapon slot's weight for avg item level. It's not the same thing or what I meant.

PS. Thanks for discussing this with me btw, you are pretty cool to talk back and forth with : )

my apologies if you read it all as a personal attack against you as a person.

Well basically throwing "entitled" and "elitism" at me while also questioning my sincerity isn't the best way to share your thoughts imo which is why I responded how I did, but thank you for the apology I appreciate it and I am glad that we could clear that up. I also apologize if I sounded rude to you, not my intention either. I was just very confused about the things you were saying.
