== Weapon Stat Upgrades Explained ==
== Weapon Stat Upgrades (Overview) ==
When you level up, you can choose upgrades for your weapons. While '''Damage''' is a possible upgrade for all weapons, other stats are specific to certain weapon types. The more stats a weapon can have, the more varied its upgrades can be (which can be good or bad depending on your build).
On level-up, weapons can roll different stats besides Damage. Typical stats include: '''Projectile Count, Projectile Speed, Size, Knockback, Duration, Projectile Bounces, Crit Chance, Crit Damage'''. 
 
Some weapons roll fewer stats (e.g., [[Aura]]), leading to more consistent damage increases per level.
; Projectile Count
: Increases the number of projectiles fired per attack.
; Projectile Speed
: Increases how fast projectiles travel.
; Size
: Increases the area-of-effect or size of projectiles.
; Knockback
: Increases the force with which enemies are pushed back.
; Duration
: Increases how long a continuous or area effect lasts (e.g., [[Axe]], [[Black Hole]]).
; Projectile Bounces
: Allows projectiles to bounce to another enemy after hitting one. Affects [[Revolver]], [[Bone]], [[Wireless Dagger]], and [[Lightning Staff]].
; Crit Chance & Crit Damage
: Increases the chance and multiplier of critical hits. Primarily affects [[Katana]], [[Dice]], [[Bow]], and [[Revolver]].
