 Not sure how good the weapon is but I'm having lots of fun slapping some charges around with Gogg armour. I've also got a newbie question. When (above) says that the wep doesn't take lean into account, is that referring to some kind of standard where the SP costs or base power is increased/reduced because of armour lean? Or does that just mean whether it is affected by armour lean (which according to the infosubs the weapon burst is a "bow attack" which I thiiiink means FO armours boost it)?

Bow attacks do not get the 1.25 boost from FO armors. Similar to how normal bows also are unaffected by armor leans.

Furthermore Gogg isn't actually that great with the armor since it caps at 4 hits, you'll charge the same rate with any 4 hit armor i.e. Hyperalphean Barbarian or your standard subrace beastforms.

If you want to look at the difference between weapon nukes that take and don't take lean into account you can look at the now post swept morningstar cross (bow) vs Gauntlet of Xano which gets the 1.25 boost for being a "fist" weapon and therefore making it significantly better for FO nukes.

It not stacking up as a FO nuke is fine, since by what I understand Cray said in discord, these weapons were never meant to compete with FO nukes such as Xano/bloodzerker or bloodmage. What is rather disappointing is that since attacking normally with it is not a "bow" attack and therefore do get the 0.8x multiplier in FD weapons it also makes it suboptimal for FD builds and there is no real justification for any build to use them.

 Yeah fair enough bow attack means 100 proc bow. Makes sense but had to be sure because the ranged mode swap isn't 100 proc as you said. Also, if I'm going to be honest, this game isn't really a difficult one. You can beat the hardest bosses in the game with F2P stuff barely breaking a sweat. It's my opinion that the rule of cool is more important for new releases now than pushing the meta window. I'm not going to lose much sleep over the weapons myself but that is just me personally. I do rather like the war reward versions.

While you do charge as fast with a 4 hit armour, if you can reach 6 hits (or 7) then you get a sizable sp cost refund. Plus Goggs were always my favourite monsters. EDIT: Not concretely 6 hits because it does a weird half-refund if you go 1 charge over while on overcharged mode. I'm also a Human purist so no subraces for me (though I was around last Christmas).

 Does anyone know if the misc is in the shop after boss now? It was a note last time. Thanks in advance.

The "Note" misc was referring to the other items in that shop (weapons and shields); there is no misc item intended to be added to that shop.

 Having said that, the misc is LV151 in order to make it un-purchasable, implying that it would be an actual (do-nothing) misc otherwise. I desire it greatly.
