Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General [Bug?] [Spoiler] Boosted weapon

My game is patched to the latest update and when I boost a weapon with a crafting level of 5 I get the same bonus than a crafting level of 2.
Is this a bug or did Larian change something without notice?

It might be based on item level only. Can you try it with two of the same item, but at different levels and let us know what happens?

Also, try at a different player level. The mechanics are tad unclear.

Thank you for your answer.
At the moment, I have only tried with the same (crafted) weapons, which implies the same item level.
I will try with different item levels soon and I will keep you posted.
For the record, the item level I have tested the boost on is 6, and at that level, the boost bonus is he same, whether I have crafting 5, 4, 3 or 2.

I *think* once you can boost the weapon, the bonus is fixed by its level type and your level.

Higher levels of crafting let you do more things, craft rarer items, but not increase the bonus on basic items.

I may be wrong though.
