Good evening ladies and gentlemen of Erildath,
The recent Arena sets released sparked some discussions over the past week about the stat distributions and disparity of sets over the course of the game. We decided to analyze and compile some data to bring attention to some facts about.
Picture #1 - Total Sets per Stat Combo - Legendary, Super Elite & Crystalline (META) & Set Distribution per Stat Combo per Bracket - Legendary, Super Elite & Crystalline (META)
Picture #1 Observations
1.1 - Attack/Damage setups remain the most popular sets in terms of development at 71 total sets (31.84% of total sets).
1.2 - Armor/Defense setups are currently 13.45% of the total across the observed ranges. This is almost equal to the total number of Attack/Defense and Attack/Armor sets (14.35%).
1.3 - There is only 1 Attack/Armor set from level 3500 onwards.
1.4 - There are no Defense/Damage sets between 3500 and 4500. They are also the least developed set at 22 sets (9.87% of total).
1.5 Armor/Defense from level 2000 onwards have become more prevalent.
1.6 There are only 3 Defense/Damage sets from level 2000 to 3000.
Picture #2 - Total Sets - All Gear & Set Distribution per Stat Combo per Bracket
Picture #2 Observations:
2.1 - Attack/Damage sets are still the most popular after including rare and unique sets at 252 sets, but percentage-wise, drop (28.90%).
2.2 - Armor/Defense sets see an increase in overall percentage (16.06%) when including rare and unique sets, having only fewer than Armor/Damage and Attack/Damage.
2.3 - Only 1 Defense/Damage set at 3500-3999, and only 1 Attack/Defense set at 4500+ after including rare/unique sets.
2.4 - Defense sets see less development overall (188 between Defense/Damage and Attack/Defense) than Armor (292 between Armor/Damage and Attack/Armor); 21.56% have a defense stat tied to it whereas 33.49% have an armor stat tied to it (not including Defense/Armor).
Picture #3 - Gear Slot Distribution - Meta (LE/Crystal/SE)
3.1 - There is very little gear on the 4000-4499 range.
3.2 - When making Armor/Damage sets, the least used gear slots are Gloves, Ring and Rune.
3.3 - When making Defense/Damage sets, the least used gear slots Gloves, Weapon, Ring.
3.4 - When making Attack/Defense sets, the least used gear slots are Shield, Ring, and Boots.
3.5 - When making Attack/Damage sets, the least used gear slots are Ring, Boots, and Rune
3.6 - When making Attack/Armor sets, the least used gear slots are Weapon, Rune, and Boots.
3.7 - When making Armor/Defense sets, the least used gear slots are Gloves, Ring, and Rune.
Disclaimer #1: We did not look at gear under level 1000 since those ranges are plentiful on gear
Disclaimer #2: We did not include any sets with HP as part of their Stat Distribution
Disclaimer #3: Sets from the 6/18 Arena Shop update are not included as they are not in the UFSG
There is more information that we could present but this was already an extensive time investment. For an album of all the images used in this post, please visit https://imgur.com/a/hPSHG7f
Much love to everybody who helped compile this information.
Yours truly,
SS
