Its somehow stupid for me that weapons damage (especially 5*) is related to depth (stratum) of floor you are in. It should be always same. Its for me pointless that they have lower damage on early stratums and they get full potential only on deeper stratums.

In my opinion it should be changed. We paid for those weapons with our time, crowns and mats and of course CE and we sould get full potential of them (especially 5* weapons that are maxed out) and deal max damage always. As for 1*2*3*4* weapons they should also have full damage on early stages but their damage should be decrased respectively as they go deeper (just like calibur).

For example:
5* weapons - full output always
4* weapons - full output down to middle terminal of tier 3 then decrase
3* weapons - full output down to middle terminal of tier 2 then decrase
2* weapons - full output down to begining of tier 2 and then decrase
1* weapons - full output down to middle terminal of tier 1 then decrase

And make farming lower levels

And make farming lower levels easy? no, thanks

poor Royal Jelly would die in like 2 hits from a Gran Faust.

What's the fun if monster won't even be able to touch you before you slice them open? lowering their power keeps the challange.

Can you say OP? Imagine how much power a full 5* gear player can do on Tier 1. Right now, with 4* gear, I can three swing just about anything on Tier 1. Do I really need to have the ability to one shot enemies? Nope.

Damage done is just fine as

Damage done is just fine as it is, your damage from high end weapons is nerfed in lower tiers to make the game potentially challenging no matter where you are playing. As it stands now you can go in with Skolver and one shot anything in T1 if solo, 2-3 hit things if in a full party. There is no reason to change it so that you can go in and splatter everything with one hit.

.... huh. Your weapons deal more damage the lower the depth. Is that really that hard of a concept to comphrehend, understand and accept? 5* weapons are stronger than 4* and so forth. You spend time getting crowns, mats and CE to get a stronger weapon. Simple.

There is no real "max damage" in this damage. The closest I could get to what you could possibly be talking about, is the damage output on depth 29, being dealt on every depth. Which is a ridiculous idea that would remove all the fun out of the game whatsoever.

...

I would feel terribly sad for that poor Snarbolax who got hit only once by a Final Flourish by a guy in full Skolver with Bristling Buckler! Then would we need tougher enemies/bosses?! That would be crazy for newbies, don't ye think?

Tedious

I'm a gunner, so I do suffer from low damage, but I find tier 1 tedious, not challenging. Unless I have forgotten what T1 was like on basic equipment, the importance of shielding and dodging doesn't come into effect until T2, which means that we get a bunch of kamikaze sword users, since it is what works best at T1.
