need a calculator to figure out weapon damage lol
so yeah, i cant actually figure out what affinity does more damage because the game doesnt tell you the total attack damage number, it just gives you the different numbers without adding them up for you.

10/10 game

stop defending this clear design oversight

It's not an oversight, it's always been this way. Why they do it this way no idea. I also don't think you really have to do the math. If you look at what stats it scaled with and the letter of each stat, then look at your stats, you should know by that which one does the most damage.

But it does get a bit more confusing when weapons have 3 or more stats on it. But either way, two seconds to do two math equations isn't the end of the world either.

+10/+25 is better than 0 the rest is just whatever looks cool/has good ash of war idk man you can beat this game naked. only thing worth considering is holy dmg is very bad for the endgame bosh rush. If u wanna test dmg you go to gatefront ruins grace and spam attacks at the greatshield lad that cant see you and watch the dmg numbers if you wanna min max really badly

Just look at the weapon in your inventory? It calculates it.
If you mean the:
253+23
202+45
Type of values.

assuming the player can do basic addition isn't really a design oversight

It's so you can tell where the values come from, the left is the base damage and the right is from scaling.
