I have about 33m and was saving up for zhelm for about 43m, but a friend told me it would be better at this point to get a 8 att wg for 20mil then save up for zhelm. So, what should I do? EDIT: I'm at 100 acc w/o pills right now, and my dmg range is about 450-1150 (sad huh?) OTHER EDIT: Should I get 8 att? Or should I just get 6 or 7 att for now? 3rd EDIT: My spear is 90 att and 5 str 4th EDIT: I don't have a att glove right now, just clean warrior glove 5th EDIT: No more edits please I just want t know without having to keep adding to this wall of text

W.ATTK > STR > ACC/Speed > DEX. Depending on how fast you get your money.. get the glove first because I don't think you will need the acc from the Zhelm yet o_O

What is your accuracy now?

Do you have atk WGs? at all? even if you had a 5 ATT I'd say go for the helm. If not, WGs. Might be a good idea to go for 6 ATT WGs cause they're like 9mil while 8 ATT is about 21mil.

This isn't even a close call. Even a 5 attack glove would do more for damage than the helm. The 8 attack glove would boost it by almost twice as much and still cost less than half as much. Meanwhile if you really needed accuracy so badly (and at 100 acc you're not even close to needing it, in fact you won't need even 100 acc until at least level 85 and should probably sell some of your other dex gear as well) there are a crapload of equips you could get instead of the helm until a level at which you're able to earn a helm for free the one way it's truly earned... by helping to defeat Zakum. Glove all the way.

buy the 8 atk wg, you should have 7-8 mil left for pots and such, the z helm would cost too much

Try training on something without hitting it. See the importance of Accuracy? @TS: You're basically asking; damage or Accuracy? If you need the Accuracy, Zhelm, if you want damage, WG. I'd recommend to get a 7 atk for 12m instead of 8 atk for 20m.

I'd wait. With the new feature that will hopefully come out, untradeable items such as a Zakum Helmet will be able to be trade once. If GMS gets this feature, Zakum Helmets will drastically drop in their price. And as everyone has previously stated, the work gloves are not only cheaper, but also more beneficial.

If you need the Accuracy, Zhelm, if you want damage, WG. I'd recommend to get a 7 atk for 12m instead of 8 atk for 20m." The thread starter specified having 100 base accuracy. At level 60. Yeah, I don't think he even needs acc shoes, let alone a helm. Although, I do agree the first poster was a little off. I think it should be "Speed > Attack > Acc > STR > DEX." Accuracy is only useful as long as you actually need it, and can even be compensated by raising base dex if necessary (but since 4 acc = 5 dex, it follows logically that 1 acc > 1 str as well with base dex implications). Weapon attack can never be compensated and besides, "try training on something with a warrior without being able to kill it quickly or KB it" would be the attack equivalent to the acc comment. But IMO if a character is even functioning (that is, the character has even the basic equips required to fight anything) then I'd put speed way before even attack, let alone the much less helpful STR.

I would say zakum helm because you get attack and acc but that's just me =P

ElvenElessar 04/10/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

I would say Z Helm too, because it gives you an extra 15 dex which you can put into str when you level, and that it also gives Str for your damage. An 8 Att WG brings up my damage around 50-60 higher. Im not sure if it is the same for warriors. =S

iAustin 04/10/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

Get a Zhelm if you need ACC and get a ATT wg for att.
