@kerravon Thanks again!

GOOD NEWS! I just solved two of the series: Red/Matilda weapons and Bomb/Blues weapons.

Red/Matilda Weapon Attack = Bround(2.5 * (Level+5)) + Bround(3.5 * (Level+5) - 1) + 1

Bomb/Blues Weapon Attack = 2 * Bround(4.8 * (Level+5))

I started by figuring out the differential pattern for the Bomb/Blues series, which is +10/+10/+10/+10/+8 (@kerravon’s new data provided the clues I needed to get this). I quickly realized that if I divided this pattern by 2, I got 5/5/5/5/4, which indicated a factor of 4.8, which quickly led me to the B/B formula.

The Red/Matilda formula took longer, but I started by realizing that the series is actually +7/+7/+5/+5, not just +7/+5 as I stated before. Since these numbers are odd, instead of even like the B/B pattern, dividing by 2 wouldn’t be sufficient. Instead, I thought that maybe it indicated the sum of two different factors, which just happened to be equivalent for B/B. Even then, using factors of 2.5 and 3.5 still didn’t come out quite right until I introduced a couple unit offsets. I’m not exactly satisfied with having to do that, but at least it works.

As for the other series, I might be able to work out Chuck’s weapon and Matilda’s offhand when I have time, but everything else has insufficient data.
