Weapon and armor decision

Ordinary legendary weapons lead into stronger plus versions after their eligible character’s level-70 ultimate challenge. Aileen’s commissions and Colosseum stock provide alternatives before those victories. Fina’s bow comparison needs magic attack/Sanctity, while a physical attacker needs its command’s scaling stat. Heavy armor can trade substantial Speed for defense: test whether slower healing or lost initiative creates a larger danger than the extra mitigation solves.
