The Eddga drops from bosses usually come in 3-5 star quality, for every blue moon that they do drop (increase droprates WP, seriously), and the NPCs always come as 2 star. More stars on gear generally give higher stats on each hone line, but do we know how badly these stars actually affect the honing? Is it like a 5% increase in stat line per star or something? Is there a formula?
I ask because I've seen some very impressive hones on 2 star Eddga weapons, but I don't know if it's comparatively impressive since I haven't seen 3+ star counterparts. My old osiris claw was 2 star with a line of 500 attack power which was very high. I want to know if it's basically negligible to just go for the eddga NPC drops with tokens.
