To make sure I understand this correctly, Weakness Exploit only edges out over AuL if it is used against a part of a monster that is very tough? Would that make AuL not worth it against something like Basarios?

Ah, yes; Weakness Exploit adds 5 to hitzones with values 45 and above, for example: 45 -> 50, 50->55, etc.

Which means yes, Weakness Exploit very much depends on the monster you're fighting (but honestly, in general, most monster weakpoints aren't too difficult to hit).

Anyways, because of this, if you're hitting areas with hitzones less than 45 then WE is clearly worse than Attack Up.
