@mvnla2 The way you’re judging the stats of the items is a fairly useless comparison. All items have fixed stats determined by their source, level, and star rating. As I’ve explained before in this thread, GPM items with 2* are equivalent to the 2* crafted version at the same level. (Stats on crafted items scale linearly by level at 0*, and each star adds 10% (round-to-even) of the 0* stat.)

A few days ago I finally realized how the star scaling works for GPM items – it modifies the level used to calculate the stat’s value, i.e. a 1* level 41 GPM item has the stat of a 2* level 40 crafted item, and a 3* level 41 GPM item has the stat of a 2* level 42 crafted item.

I haven’t fully solved the scaling of set items, but on average they are 26% more powerful than the 2* version at the same level, and 17% more powerful than the 3* crafted version.

So back to my point: If you keep rolling on the GPM at max level, eventually your birds will all be equipped with full max-level legendary sets, and all items you get from the GPM after that will have worse (or equivalent, if you get a set item) stats than your equipped items. Which means judging the stats of GPM items by comparing them against your equipped items doesn’t make any sense.
