I'm using the cumulative damage in stats.

I've been using two Arisen, with different core magick and strength. For each I have a lot of magick shields, but the most useful set are : (I don't need them all) Because I have pairs that are within 2 of the same stat for magick or strength I can compare damage for both - eg if damage doesn't increase at the same strength when magick increases then magick doesn't matter.
 * Thunder Kite Shield (84/227) [A][B]
 * Thunder Kite Shield * (89/242) [C]
 * Blue Kite Shield ** (114/225) [A]
 * Blue Kite Shield *** (122/241) [C]
 * Knight's Honor ** (84/169) [B]

..once I know how/if magick/strength matters I go do the tests with the other character (same shields) - this lets me get the effect of core stats ..
