Perk/effect advice, can someone explain?

[vogelman198]

Agility Damage Bonus - is always active regardless of ranking, example while having B (green) it still works? There is no requirement to have A? I am getting a buff regardless of rank?

Equipment Weight Damage Bonus - is always active regardless of weight, example I am wearing mid-armor, and I am qt 28.5 weight, does it still works? There is no requirement to have x amount of weight? I am getting a buff regardless of weight?

Finally, if you somehow manage to get both perks. Do both work? So I get X buff from Agility Damage Bonus and X buff from Equipment Weight Damage Bonus OR does one override the other?

Thank you

Agility damage bonus means more damage the higher your agility is, although it's pointless to take it if you don't have A agility.

Equipment weight damage bonus is trash.

I'm not sure if damage bonus perks are allowed to overlap except for a few exceptions such as melee dmg bonus + iai quickdraw dmg bonus on the same gear. Some perks can't stack such as faster winded recovery.

Yes to all. These are global damage increases. Open the Status context menu and scroll until you get to 'Special Effects'. If it's listed there then it is active.

Agility damage: It's something like 5% damage per agility level so C is 5%, B is 10%, and A is 15% at least that was how it was first game.

There is a Nioh reforge table on reddit which goes further into what stats do what(should still be applicable to this game):

Ok, so to simplify.
1) Equipment Weight Damage Bonus and Agility Damage Bonus are always active, with NO requirements?

2) Equipment Weight Damage Bonus and Agility Damage Bonus stack with each other? There is no overlap or override? I get the effect from both?

They really nerfed the values for this game.

would be helpful if there was a document to reference for what stacks and what doesnt, definitely stacked that and tenacity.
