Does upgrading your gear serve any purpose? I was messing with CE to test and gave myself lots of crystals, but my +1 gladius has the exact same stats at +24 as it did at +1. And armor stats don't seem to change, either.
Maybe its that invisible 'take less damage' that leveling supposedly adds? Though not sure what the sword will do. I'm gonna go smack something with it.
Edit: I smacked a Beast Mistress with it, and it went from doing 12-15 at +1 to doing 22-24 with the Assault skill. Doesn't seem worth it, considering the sheer number of levels and crystals required.
Still not sure about armor, though. Since I equipped it only the most stupidly overpowered enemies can even hurt my character. Like the Dark Knight or Unicorn who can still do 30+'s with melee attacks whether you wear armor or not. Their damage seems to be 'true' damage, apparently.
Also, I didn't notice at the time but my charisma is 12. So it can go at least that high.
