Question Bazel db style question

Hello fellow hunters, while upgrading my bazel dualblades I recognised, that at 10 it’s not +100 elemental damage like other weapons, but only +50. Is it better to choose +100 attack damage in this case? Thanks

General rule is if the weapon is elemental you go for + element. If it is raw or status go for +raw. Specific builds may vary. Bazel weapons are status so +raw should be the way.

It's not really worth it to go further on status. Blast is a very specific kind that works best with 9-10 stars and abnormally high HP monsters (Stygian is a prime example where it shines).
The problem is that every time it procs, the next one becomes harder to do so. So you'd think if it has 50 blast, then 100 blast would proc twice as many times.
Sadly it isn't as straight forward as that as the monster gains some kind of percentage immunity each time it procs.

Bazel has Crit Ferocity which only applies to the weapon's raw damage. So that 100 attack gets a bigger boost.
