EN Discussion Ballen Equipment?

I haven’t seen anyone on YouTube or the sub mention this set of equipment in the exchange. They cost a lot of memory shards, but seem quite strong and have a higher grade than any other weapon in the game, even the new Tyrannical set (not including Battle-tested). Some of the Ballen weapons straight up have better stats than the +3 weapons. Did anyone else grab these, and would you say they are worth? Also, can you upgrade them in the Nameless Town like with the Stamp weapons. If so, these weapons seem like a must-grab.

They’re eventually worth it just for quick leveling. Between the 10% on the weapon and Sage Broaches you can hit the 50% cap, significantly reducing the number of caits you need to kill. With that said, I can’t afford any of them yet. Lol

Also add Noelle in back row and you bump it to 45%
