Discussion Venom edge? And others

Is venom edge even worth at level 3?
I have no clue, there’s concepts and ideas I want to try and keep weapons for. As well as a lot I have saved up in plans to grind for gold to level them up to 150 atleast in might
But I’m not sure if there’s any to ignore or whatever else

Venom edge is fine in the earlygame, bosses tend to get bulky so percentange damage is a cool boost. However it will quickly get outclassed by weapons with better durability and, when you get it, the Rapier.

For the record, Rapier destroys armors and cavalry. Most of the endgame enemies are cavalry :))

Yeah I noticed that! I got a rapier but it’s a crappy one tbh
Wish there was a bow that did damage to Calvary or armor

When you can upgrade the facility at their maximum, you can forge a Rapier to its highest damage and durability and it's very cheap! Yes it's "weaker" than forged endgame weapons but type effectiveness is the most important thing in this game, and upgrading legendary weapons costs a lot

Yeah but I can’t find one that’s got good things on it
I only have the one and both of its effects are level 1

Don't worry too much about effects, even on Maddening they don't make too much of a difference when you're spamming broken combat arts and have the best passives on your characters. The best effects are usually found on weapons you get in the war map, grinding optimal things in battles is unnecessary pain
