@TheDunkCentral @sportingnews The issue with this is she has 60 defensive rebounds less than A'ja Wilson, and 90 more offensive rebounds. If it was infact her just doing the work, she'd have more defensive rebounds. But she doesn't. Instead, she has the worst shooting percentage of any rebounder in the top

@manfightdragon I disagree. The DLC pumps Ancient Dragon Stones into the players inventory frequently throughout the DLC so they can attain said new weaponry and use it. That's why there's such a large mix of stone fragment upgrades. So players CAN use the weapons. They did a terrific job.
