Properties

Chaos weapons possess the ability to randomly change enchant bonus, flare, and weighting amount, and can be made into many weapon bases. The enchant bonus varies with each swing. Modification of the weapon ability shifts after each successful strike that employs it, and the color corresponds to the ability (it is not guaranteed to activate with each strike):

White: cold flares
Blue: lightning flares
Red: fire flares
Green: acid flares
Brown: impact flares
Black: crit weighting
Grey: damage weighting
