I just got my swordsman to level 30 and now chose fighter. I heard in some forums that they recommend scrolling your armor for more dex and stick with it for the rest of your life... My dex is currently 58, but some would recommend stopping at 60 while some recommends stopping at 80.
So with all these, I was just wondering what 20 strength points can make your way stronger, in exchange for misses, but isn't it better to have more accuracy to hit your opponent more? A miss can like mess up your fight against stronger opponents.
I need some of your opinions, thanks!
I'm currently a 48 fighter in Broa.I stopped my dex at 66,and got a 14dex blue chainmail.So dex is capped at 80.But after a while the chainmail looks *censored* -__- so i got my dex back to 80[base] and started using the top and bottoms.Oh yeah and if you can 100% dex your gloves they give +1 accuracy each scroll.You can buy em for 35k at some scroll store.
The point of being "low-dex" is so that you have just enough accuracy to hit the things you're training on 100% of the time, so that no points are wasted. However, this does mean that you'll have to do some scrolling and you'll have to do some calculations as to how much dex you'll need given what scrolling results you have or expect.
If that bothers you, don't go low-dex. I have 100 base dex and I'm doing fine. I could probably have a much lower dex now that I have a nice scrolled blue chainmail and other things, but I like having tons of accuracy. (See c-rog hunt topic) By the way, 80 dex or so is considered normal, 60 is considered low, and 100 is considered quite high.
If you're missing with a low-dex build, then you're missing the point.
Low dex sucks for training because you basically have to wait until you're that monsters level or higher to train on them to take full advantage of the low dex. I have 52 base dex on my page although I don't have any excellent gear. I'm using a 14 dex/6 acc/2 spd blue chainmail with 5 slots, an unscrolled cape, and speed snowshoes because with accuracy pills I'm fine at zombies.
Low dex is a pain because you have to deal with having bad or mediocre equips until you get lucky or can afford better equips although 20 str adds 42-109 base damage for me so I can deal about 311 more damage with powerstrike + fire charge to a non weak monster and about 374 to a fire weak monster right now. Although once I max out fire charge at level 81 20 strength will add 340 to a neutral monster and 510 to a fire weak monster.
Its really not that much although if you get more weapon attack (ex. rage) the 10 extra attack will help you more if you're low dex versus regular or higher dex. I wouldn't recommend low dex because it should be more fun to just have regular or high dex and be able to fight whatever you want.
Low-Dex is the most lame concept ever...
