That's why I said a no break SSR weapon. It'll be a long time before you have a full set of SSR weapons of a single element, especially if you're using a Dark or Light team. Until then, you obviously want whatever you can get, which will most likely be disaster weapons or SR weapons from events. If you get a SSR weapon from gacha, it will most likely not be as good in the long run unless you can break it once or twice as a no break SSR gacha weapon is even more difficult to break limit than a event unless you get lucky draws or whale.

I.one star is better than MLB SR how do you come up with that?
2.SR weapon come with elemental boost for whole party with same element with huge sixteen percent even without level it to the high level.
3. Your idea to max it until level 75 will make your experience gone to waste because each level will multiply the cost (experience)
4 it will be such a huge waste of experience if somehow you need to sacrifice it.
5. This game is a race against time SR weapon with same element will give much faster strength boos than SSR with no boost because leveling high level costed a lot.

well i can say for sure right now in my inventory, all of my highest ATK wpns are SSR. so if i am to take your advice it would mean going out of the way to max some lower level SR's rather than keep upping my SSR's to 75.

SSR wpns also come with afflictions or beneficial side effects.

That side effect only works if you put in your heroic spirit so only one of your weapon can give you the effect.
Yes maxing SR weapon only need few quest. Try expert quest it often give you SR enhancement material.
Having many variation of element will give you disadvantage. If it is your playstyle it's up to you. There is a reason it's highly recommended to settle with one element.

Also important to keep in mind that SSR weapon burst does a LOT more than SR weapon burst. My Sieg with damage amp can do like 170k with SSR weapon + ele weakness and only 120k with SR weapon + ele weakness.

and that is exactly my dilemma. i can easily get 1 (or 2) star SSR wpn on each event.... each time a different element. or i can go all in 1 element in which case i m stuck with lots of SR wpns.

as it stands i m probably going multi element because i dont have an imba KH and i dont want to reroll

The difference is a 3.5x modifier vs. 4.5x. It's important for Siegfried, but no so much for the other heroic spirits.

SSR weapons equipped as secondary aren't that much stronger than SR weapons, especially before LV85. So comparisons between a single-element team and a rotating opposite-element team come down to tradeoffs between assault skill and the 45-48% elemental advantage (together with 25% lower damage received). Rotating teams compare favorably at low weapon skill levels. But as content increases in difficulty and demands ever-higher damage output, you'll be forced to level assault skill for 6 elements instead of 1 and farm weapons for every element just to keep pace. Not to mention some of your teams won't have the proper balance to clear difficult content like Ultimate (lacking healing, debuffs, utility or all of the above). It's better to invest heavily in one element that has the best team composition. It'll pay off in the long-term, even if at low levels you're still changing teams for every event. The base stats from the weapons will still buff each team.

so what do u do with non-water (or non-main) SSR wpns? use it for upgrade fodder or leave it at lv1?

I leave them as lvl 1 in case if I will ever get around to build team of other element (you never know what you will get from gacha in future)

I stash away the strongest weapon of each element for use as a primary weapon. I never use SSR weapons as fodder. There's enough SR weapon fodder with useless skills that for now I'm also holding onto fully LB'd off-element SR assault weapons. Keep in mind, however, that an SSR weapon that isn't LB'd at least once (and you won't be able to obtain more copies of from a Renewal event) is more or less useless as a secondary in the long-term.
