Practical use

What to do next

1. 01

   Compare the same slot and note each item's acquisition version.

2. 02

   Separate base item stats from the member's buffed totals.

3. 03

   Use the comparison tool for per-stat differences, without inventing an overall score.

4. 04

   Check whether a quoted patch applies retroactively before replacing old gear.

Use acquisition version as part of an item record

Two copies of an item can be a poor comparison if a patch applies only to newly acquired equipment. Conversely, the selected v1.10 armor Defense changes explicitly include existing items. Read the relevant patch's scope before concluding that an old inventory copy should—or should not—match a new one.

Record item base stats separately from the character's total. Enhancements, enchantments, skills, Affinity, entry bonuses and information bonuses can contribute to the latter. The comparison tool intentionally reports each stat difference without a single weighted score: useful stat priorities depend on the role and the failure you are trying to fix.
