Corroding/ Variable weapon attributes

I was wondering if anyone knows what the effect of the corroding sword is? Doesn’t seem to be a stacking DoT, although I can’t be sure.

Also what variable does exactly, citing examples.

If not mistaken, corroding causes durability loss to your target’s armor.
With variable you get a rng roll on the weapon stats when you craft the weapon.

Like acid arrows huh. Thanks.

I’ve no idea what kind of stats you’re meaning on the variable, hence I asked for examples.
I guess another 20 trips to the vaults to find out.
Sigh

Test them in single-player. Spawn the mats, spawn the schematic, craft whatever weapon you are interested in. With 10-20 crafts you should easily see the difference in damage/armor pen which is what is relevant (weight & durability less so). Don’t forget to use the relevant T4 blacksmith (damage).

Ah yeah, oops! I haven’t played single player for so long I never considered that.

Thanks Narelle.

How variable is it though? Like 10% down-up for each stat? or is it more relevant?

I haven’t checked the exact numbers but looked like something like ±10% of the base. The swords I was crafting were in the range 59-74.
