8, 4, and 7 have about equal stamina, but 8 has much worse burst resistance.

7 has better stamina than 4 so where does 8 stand
I've personally found that out of all the Core Disks, 8 has the most LAD when used without a Frame. Its tendency to burst compared to 4, 5, or 7 means it's less usable in most situations, but if you can find a combo where it balances really well then it might be worth using over other Core Disks (my 8 balances really well with my dF for example). It's kind of like the Ring of God Disks IMO.

Thanks hows its stamina tho is it on par with 7 stamina wise?
Perhaps Attack? It could work like Gravity vs. Heavy for Attack. More OWD for more speed

Yea but its lighter than 7 and bursts more. Its weight is a bit more than 4/5 but it bursts more often than them too

Yes, but pre-God Layer System. Gravity was used for Attack instead of Heavy despite them being of the same weight and Gravity Bursting more than Heavy. Gravity was used more because its OWD boosted speed. It could make combinations faster than 7 combinations. Maybe.
8 really makes beys burst easier. In my final match, I used dF.8.Ds against D2.H.O. dF bursted easily with a weak launch. I am still salty over it due to it placing me in 3rd
