Any ideas why i have 2007 precision instead of 2008 and 1454 ferocity instead of 1455 ? xD

Hi Naeelys, thanks for the question. You should definitely consider joining our discord server and asking this there. It'll be easier to share screenshots of your gear so we can check out what is going on. Normally, one stat point of difference is due to comparing two one-handed weapons against a two-handed weapon.
