Outside the number above

What Excalibur does that its DPS does not count

The DPS figure on this page measures direct damage to one target. Excalibur also carries the following, and none of it is in that figure. These are stated, not quantified: an amount the game itself declares is quoted as it stands, and no DPS is computed for a channel this site has not modelled.

−2 Armor per equipped weapon An effect the weapon declares, outside this figure
This weapon declares −2 Armor per equipped weapon. The DPS figure above neither includes this nor corrects for it: a triggered grant is not a flat value, and this figure is the untriggered one; this weapon’s own damage and attack cycle never read that stat. A weapon’s declared effects are applied to you on equip and removed on unequip, though what a triggered one is worth depends on a condition this figure does not model.

Metric boundary

What this number means

Expected primary-target DPS (before enemy armor) includes weapon base damage, the listed scaling coefficients, % Damage, weapon and player crit chance, projectile count, shooting duration, and steady-state mean cooldown. It assumes every projectile aimed at the primary target connects.

It excludes enemy armor, weapon-set damage bonuses, later pierce or bounce targets, melee area targets, misses, overkill, burning, explosions, spawned projectiles, on-hit effects, and weapon-scripted damage changes. The chain figure is separate and assumes enough distinct targets for every listed bounce and pierce. Neither figure is “actual DPS.”

Every figure here is measured with one equipped weapon. A character page ranks this same weapon inside that character’s own loadout, at the weapon-slot count that character starts with, and that count changes the steady-state cycle — so the same tier can show a different DPS there. Each character page states the count its figures use.

For melee cycle timing, the calculation uses the weapon’s listed maximum range as attack distance, matching the damage model’s cross-validation method; runtime target distance can change that timing.

Characters that can start with Excalibur

No character’s starting weapon pool offers Excalibur, so no character can open a run holding it. Every run that uses it has to acquire it after the run has started.

Same computation, read by weapon

Where Excalibur is a notable outlier

This reads the character rankings the other way: which characters can’t equip Excalibur at all, and which ones its computed rank moves materially away from the generic, zero-bonus order. Same comparison each character page uses — default 10 Max HP, zero other bonus stats, weapons at their highest usable tier, before enemy armor; full stated assumptions are on each character’s own page.
