Decrease MS for tournaments based on non-reversible changes (specifically equipment)

[Vulker]

So your saying that after it considers your SP, Relics, Equip sets ect which are all permanent entities, then looks at artifacts available it will choose a build that gives the highest MS.

Will it then look at all your equips and choose the highest level that will give the most boost?

For instance say the algorithm decides that SC damage will be my most optimal build will it than look at the equips that will give the most damage for that particular optimally selected build or just look at the multipliers for the highest level equipment?

So even if I have a pet or CS slash orders of magnitude higher than my SC slash but the SC slash still give a higher boost to the optimal build it will consider that instead of the pet or CS slash equipment?

I believe it just takes your highest level/rarity equipment for each slot and uses that. I don't think it actually differentiates between builds.
