As you can probably tell from the image I wants all the attack ups, thus I need gear with attack up as it's main ability aswell as 3x attack up as it's sub abilitys. I feel having the highest attack possible is very useful for this weapon set, but unfortunately what's pictured is the best I can do with what I've got currently. Therefore I'll need outside help, so if any of yal are lucky enough to have the aforementioned gear please let me know! Even if you only have an attack up hat or shoe with one or two attack ups as subs that'd still be an improvement and much appreciated!

That thing looks bad ass!

Stacking abilities doesn't do much.
The more of the same abilities u have, the worse they get.
For example: 1x +Attack might give you +10% more damage, but the second one will only be around 7% more damage.
You should try to go for different ones, not for the same ones.

Edit: Also the gear doesn't have the same abilities when u order it. It is completely random. Only the visuals are the same.

You dont know that the abilities doesnt stack right? ;D
Get each ability once, everything else is a waste (you should had read what the cat told you :P)

I knows, but having more attack is too good with this weapon and more significant than any other abilitys I could use with it imo.

There's a small chance it will be exactly the same. Will just take a few tries is all.

The cat said diminishing returns, not that they don't stack. See for yourself by going into the test range with a non rapid fire weapon and gradually increase the number of attack ups you have equiped.

really? im like 100% she said dont stuck. Maybe its a translation error (playing in german) or i just remember wrong

They 100% do stack, just with diminishing returns. Look at the test range dummies in the back of the test range. 1 has no defense, 1 has 1 defense, 1 has 2 defense, and 1 has 3 defense. You'll see that the 3 defense dummy takes the least damage, but that the damage taken vs. defense up badges correlation is not linear

In any case, that gun is huge! Almost as big as the inkling himself

Regardless of what he said, the truth is they do stack. For instance, with just 3 main ability attack ups and no subs, a completely uncharged shot from the E-liter deals the amount of damage you see here:

So 3 hits to kill, no different from having no attack ups. However, when you add 2 sub ability attack ups to the 3 main ones you get this:

The damage per shot becomes 50, so only two hits are needed to kill!
