Superior Corona Rod has the highest raw matk of all rods pre lolopanther rod. The fact that it’s cheap then you can upgrade it to +10~12
##Superior Corona Rod vs Maga Rod
Let’s compare the matk at +10:
+10 superior corona rod = 402 matk
+10 maga rod = 314 matk + 68 elemental damage
Though if both are at +10 maga rod could still pretty much match with superior corona because of the flat elemental damage.
Let’s compare the cost if both are +10:
Maga Rod
Usual asking price is around = 1.8m-2m
Anvil upgrade = 2,739,287
Total cost at +10 = 4,539,287 ~ 4,739,287
Superior Corona Rod
Usual asking price is around = 300k-400k
Anvil upgrade = 2,480,868
Total cost at +10 = 2,780,868~2,880,868
Cost difference of the two rods:
4,539,287 ~ 4,739,287
- 2,780,868 ~ 2,880,868
= 1,758,419 ~ 1,858,419
With roughly 2m cost difference you could still upgrade your Superior Corona Rod to +11~13 which will get you around 18~54 more flat matk.
##Arde dagger vs Venom
Arde and Venom are pretty much the same when it comes to additional damage. But Venom offers 14 CONS so you’ll basically get 1k more HP from it and 17 HP recov.
##Max petamion vs Animus
Base HP recovery of wizards at 280 is 157 (no bonus stats, equips and other things, just basic HP recovery).
Add your 150 con and you’ll get 343.
Magic Amp works as a Maximum Damage of the wizards.
So it’s safe to say the every 1 Magic Amp = .5 Magic attack.
So with animus you’ll get 343 * .4 = 137.2 / 2 = 68.6 Matk
Since Animus also adds +33 Magic Attack.
68.6 + 33 = 101.6 total Magic Attack
While Max peta will just give you 14 more INT.
