whats the max power level for items

[Şeyma]

is it like vermintide where they cap at a certain point, or is it just random. cause everything im getting is just below 400, while legendarys are slightly above 400.

My legendary Bolter has 468 power so the cap will probably be about 500 I guess with really optimized guns.

A white 350+, when fully upgraded through crafting, will go way past 500.

There are people with gear over 500 on the official discord. Current best guesses are that it's 600.

A friend of mine upgraded a pl 370 grey piece of junk to master crafted just for kicks (and to test whether upgrading increased damage or not for himself, turns out it does not), it's at 507 now.

560 is the estimated power cap for gear right now.

Kinda.

The way it works is that weapons have a base rating cap of roughly 350-400. This base rating is what determines the weapon's stats in its 5 bars when its generated and is by far the most important measure of a weapon's overall strength.

The problem is, Perks and Blessings add to this rating over the cap. This makes determining the actual rating cap, and how close the weapon is to that cap if its not a White weapon, difficult.

It isn't that difficult now that weapon cards actually explain where they got their power stat from. You can see exactly what the base power of a weapon is before any modifiers or blessings applied.

That's good to know.

I haven't spent that much time digging into the new weapon cards because I'm trying to minimize my time spent in the game in order to give myself the best chance at a refund in the event that the devs fail to deliver Solo and Private modes within the 2 week launch period,

Fair. I'm still chugging light amounts of copium gas in the hopes that Fatshark actually gets their ♥♥♥♥ together and sorts the game out within a reasonable amount of time. Until then, I'll play games that are actually finished, or at the very least playable.

From what I can tell the base stat modifiers cap out at 80% (for now at least). Which would put the max rating at 400 (80 x 5 = 400).* As to what the max rating from perks + blessings is, I am still working that one out myself.

* for whatever reason when i leveled up my force sword earlier from purple to gold it gained 5 rating for its base stat modifiers. It was not reflected in the stats as far as i could tell. It could be a bug, but I have no idea on what kind of bug it is. either it bugged and was never supposed to increase the rating there or it bugged and it didn't increase the stats when it should.

TLDR: Buggy mess and i need more data.
