Does manualy editing the stats to max screw the game?
Weaponskills at 50 dont seem too do anything.
Some bosses do bizarre damage around 2000 when max hp is 999.
I wouldn't touch that. The BR is designed with a rubberband in mind. If you are too strong in comparison to the competition, the BR is meant to scale.
This is done for two reasons:
1.- To make it so you do not need to grind. If you are too far behind the curve, your stats will improve very quickly, you will get multiple stat ups after the fight.
2.- To keep the game challenging and remove the need for grinding.
Techs and Gear doesn't seem to affect BR but at this point we don't really know, its just speculation. Easy fights never scale BR so they are meant to grind techs and materials, if you must. Normal, Hard and Brutal fights scale BR differently, with the harder the fight the more the BR scales. But, I think this is because the harder the fight the larger the statups at the end of combat are.
This kinda confirms it in a certain way, since maxing out the stats maxes out the BR. Since the moment you go too far beyond the BR you stop getting stats, having HP 999 tells the game you are at the end game, with a full suite of maxed out techs and characters and endgame gear.
If you raised the HP without raising the other stats and specially if you do not have endgame gear, the difficulty will be tilted against the Player.
My advise: Don't touch the stats. Raise the growths for the stuff that you want for the character that you are editing.
