accessories descriptions are badly written?
At the time I'm writing this I have 27 hours in this game, and I've just kind of been rolling with the punches, but I'd like to see if someone agrees with me.
It feels like a lot of the wording for the accessories are written poorly.
To me it feels like there's always a key word missing... for example the opal:
lvl 1: "Wind/Earth Damage -50%"
lvl 2: "Light Damage +7.5%"
lvl 3: "Earth Damage +15%"

At a first glance I figured that the the wind/earth damage was mitigation, however the wording is exactly the same for light and earth. would it not be a lot better if it said something along these lines to clarify it?
lvl 1: "Wind/Earth Damage taken -50%"
lvl 2: "Light Damage dealt +7.5%"
lvl 3: "Earth Damage dealt +15%"

I understood it right away. But I agree that it would be better to add the "taken/dealt" keyword to make it clearer

I have to agree. The wording could be much clearer. I understood it, but I can see how this could easily mislead or confuse someone.

Funny you point this out as I also understood it implicitly as Simon did but now that you mention it you are correct. I didn't even noticed tbh.

It's not that I didn't understand it, it's the fact that I first had to do one of those comical double takes and then read the "advanced" description.
