(I didn't bother to hone this xD)
I wasn't lucky enough to get crit +2% even tho its a 10% chance, tried all my gear, was only for a test to show you could get that also lol
Tips:Hone your old R8 before transferring it to R8RR. You won't be able to hone afterword.You can't reshape the old R8 gear that you turned into R8RR. Probably under another type of file code that the NPC doesn't recognize.Possible stats you can get for a Veno R8RR Robe, can obtain the same info via the encyclopedia.
Apparently, mixing your old R8 with the R8RR gives you the stat bonus regardless.
R8 weapons can't be transferred into a R8RR weapon with a 5th stat. Speak to Ti Chien, (1k streams across from the Elder), to craft a new weapon and reforge that into R8RR.
Update V55 Weapon: Its easier to obtain attack/def levels. However, you can't hone the weapon. You have to keep rerolling at guardian angel for your perfect weapon. Top Stat is 20 attack lvls only, other 4 stats max is 5.
