Weapons in the armory have unique item IDs, so that (for example) it's possible to have multiple copies of the same weapon, each with a different mod crystal loadout. Selecting weapons appears to respect these IDs, but if you take n copies of a given weapon into battle, their stats will be those of the n oldest (lowest-ID) copies of that weapon in your armory, regardless of which unique IDs you actually chose.

Steps to reproduce:

[ol]

  • Put a weapon into your armory (I suggest a Box-O-Snowballs).
  • Add a mod crystal to it (I suggest a Fire Tear Crystal).
  • Put a second copy of the same weapon into your armory.
  • Add a different mod crystal to it (I suggest a Water Tear Crystal).
  • Put the second weapon into a weapon set, confirming that its hover tooltip shows the second crystal.
  • Challenge an opponent and use the weapon in battle.
  • [/ol] Expected behavior: the weapon stats show the effect of the second crystal.

    Actual behavior: the weapon stats show the effect of the first crystal.

    As far as I can tell, this applies to all weapons and all methods of selecting them:

    • putting them in the default weapon set and choosing "Battle with Defaults",
    • putting them in the default weapon set and starting a battle from the challenge page without selecting a different one,
    • putting them in a non-default weapon set and choosing it on the challenge page, and
    • choosing them from the "Customize" tab (inspecting the page to match the desired unique ID).
    I found this out the hard way while fighting Hydragellos.

    Bug said they would look into it a few years ago but that it wouldn't be high priority

    2 Weapons with the same name, but different mods

    But I too would love to see this changed.

    Wow, my bad! I have no idea how I missed that thread.

    I guess I won't hold my breath. Shame, it's fun to hyper-optimize stuff for different opponents (especially bosses).
