Equipment values in 3.0.1
Blizzard re-deployed 3.0.1 to live on October 19; its hotfix post that day lists build 24371. The 3.0.1 changes described here now apply to the live game. Kingy has not retested them in an installed client.
Blizzard rebalances many campaign equipment items in the October 7 patch without listing this item’s new values or confirming that it stayed unchanged. The table below preserves the earlier recorded tooltip; current-build stats and performance remain unconfirmed. Check your installed tooltip before comparing equipment.
On screen: With Anya's equipment panel open, the Lesser Blade of the Cultist tooltip reads Common Primary Weapon with +5% Attack Rate and +5% Ability Amplification.
Check the guide’s version notes before following older footage.
The blade lists percentage bonuses to Attack Rate and Ability Amplification. Zombie Arm instead lists +4 Damage and +1% Life Steal. These tooltips give you a starting point for comparing their bonuses; they do not establish which weapon deals more damage for your build.
A guaranteed drop, vendor transaction and complete acquisition route for Lesser Blade of the Cultist have not been verified.
