No, you're not getting me. I'm saying that, even with all that "multiplicative stuff", I'm saying that it still may only amount to Ancient. I know you're real excited to see Rou get lots of amazing stuff, but  the author has so far made it a point to show the progress of Blacksmith's craftsmanship and she's been stuck at Unique for a long while. To just suddenly skip a grade because you think "it would be amazing if it was Legendary" would be wrong. It's the same as the people who assumed Rou could take on Demigods when he ranked up to an Overlord and the author replied that Rou's strength was still nothing compared to a Demigod's. It's a bit different here, but the same message applies: don't overhype things, or undervalue the level of some characters and equipment grades.

Don't underestimate the quality of Unique or Ancient items. One of Sato's main swords is still Unique class, after all, and she used that all the way since the beginning to their fight against the Dragon Emperor. Aside from the strength of abilities, the leap between Unique and Ancient also raises the equipment's durability to the point that it doesn't even need maintenance anymore. And Legendary items? They're completely indestructible (except for unknown conditions; I don't know, maybe if a god destroys it).

Rou's already an anomaly for completing a Demigod dungeon all the way to the end, you know. Don't act like the equipment he could receive from there is the norm of what can be regularly achieved. Ancient weapons are rare and treated as high value treasures for a kingdom, Legendary is the stuff of heroes, and Phantasmal items haven't seen any use at all except in ancient history (The Hero of Rule having a Phantasmal grade item himself, but being unable to unlock its potential, it only counts as a Legendary item).
