Comparison between crafted weapons and armors and magical ones for PVM

[Tyr Antilles]

To more clearly answer the question: how much better is my magical weapon or armor vs. a crafted one for fights against monsters.

This is a cut down and (hopefully) more easy to read version of "A graphical overview comparing the various modifiers" from the bottom of the Modifiers page here: https://uooutlands.com/wiki/Modifiers

i think this should be reworked and give more value to created weapons, Avar weapons should be almost equal to Vanquishing, i am 115 mining and i still havent found avarite when mining. if its that hard to mine, its value in weapons should be far greater.
or maybe using gems or other items of value to enhance weapons.

Avarite weapons sell well. Their convenience and the combination of accuracy & tactics make them some of the most convenient, high-end weapons to use. While they can never be as good as high-end magic weapons, it is much easier to keep a nice stock of avarite weapons in your shelf compared to comparable or better magic weapons. Not to mention better-than-avarite magic weapons are extermemly difficult to find (and expensive as well as they make you a target for greif).

I think that's a pretty good trade off:

best crafted weapons = A tier weapons easily purchased from player vendors
best magic weapons = S tier weapons that are more difficult to keep in stock

However, some type of enhancement or gem slotting would be interesting as long as it doesn't increase player power.

All I can say is that I like very much the current system as I love magical weapons and I love the thrill when I get a good (and rare) magical weapon from a random monster.
