If they do that, then they beat REMA
Another upgrade, AND augments, will beat half the rema for sure
Why?
Another upgrade can be just +3MAB, +5 acc/att/macc, 255 skill and +10 to next 3 stats (so they have +10 all stats). Augments can be mediocre too, like let say +5% DA, +5%WSD max.
In which case:
- GKT would still be meh
- Scythe would still be meh
- Axe is very good, but still only optional to REMA.
- Staff would still be meh
- Club might be the best melee club for some jobs (but probably not for jobs with REMA clubs)
- Sword is the best sword for some jobs, but again not really for jobs with rema swords
- Gsword would still be meh
- H2H would still be meh
- Gaxe would still be meh
- Polearm would still be meh (outside of situational use for sam and war)
- Katana woudl be ok, still behind Aeonic
- Bow would still be lolbow and macc piece for some jobs
- Dagger might be sometimes bis for THF, but only sometimes
I see only one weapon (dagger) that could potentially and situationally beat REMA for one job. If some of those weapons are bis, they are bis for jobs without access to REMA of that type.
