I have checked a variety of theorycrafting threads, sheets and guides and have no substantiated answers to the following questions:
The various anima- or flame- or plasma- epic cache weapons start at lower weapon power for an epic (550, as I recall), because they can be used at L1. They also state that they gain more weapon power as they are empowered-- which of course anything does, but the implication is that they gain it faster until they match "regular" 3-pip epics, mythics and legendaries.
Pop wisdom is that they catch up to regular empowered 3-pips at Mythic 15. I have seen no substantive reports or numbers or screenshots.
So, my question: does anyone have actual confirmation or maths for any of this, or is it all apocrypha?
Do cache epics have the same weapon power at Mythic 15 as "regular" 3-pip epics have when they get to Mythic 15?
What happens after Mythic 15? Do they then maintain parity, or do they keep accelerating and surpass "regular 3-pip epics in weapon power by Mythic 35 and so on into Red?
Anyone know for sure?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
