To cube my second weapon or not

What choice would be a bigger improvement while fighting bosses, 21% attack or 60% boss.

I have around 305% boss and only 21% attack. I was thinking of recubing my 60% boss for 21% attack. Would it increase my damage at bosses? Also if it helps, i have 1.3k attack.

Makes sense. I tottaly forgot about bonus potential. I will take your advice!
And... I have heard it is "ineffective" after you get a high amount of % boss from many people, so thats one reason why I wanted to cube the 60% boss secondary weaopn into % attack.[/quote]

It is not that % boss is ineffective per se, but rather that it's less "cost" effective. If cost isn't an issue, yes, % att on your bonus potentials, % boss/pdr on your main lines. But most people find cubing 21% att bonus potentials to be rather expensive.

[quote=Swabaroo]I'd have to say go for the %atk, from what I've seen anything over 300% boss is kind of ineffective.[/quote]

OT: why would boss damage be innefective after 300%?
It makes no sense...
I'd think that when you have a lot of %boss damage, every little change you do in attack has even greater impact on bosses, because of the boss % damage, so yea, after 101% boss damage, you'd be better off investing in attack, for greater results (however, keep in mind boss % comes in larger numbers than atk).

I hope you didn't forget about your bonus potential.
Cubing %atk on main potential is a waste because you can cube identical lines of %atk on bonus potential.

Legendary normal pot 1st line is 12% atk
Legendary bonus pot 1st line is also 12% atk

Why do people keep saying more %boss is "ineffective?" I cannot seem to figure it out since no one has provided me with any valid reasons.
