Hi! i am a level 72 crusader and i was wondering how i could improve my damage. i currently have a 15/15/15/15 zhelm, 10atk wg, 9acc rss, 10dex raggedy cape, 25dex 11acc chainmail overall, 85atk japanese map, and 8dex earrings. Should i get a 3atk pac? or get a better weapon? And i was also thinking of giving up my dex overall and getting a scrolled top str and a bottom dex. Would this be a good idea? Please help. i have base 4 dex, and i can spend about 100mil on upgrading my things, as well as selling some of these equips if necessary. Thanks. =D

Get a dep star and yea switch ur rag cape to a pac with dex. And a top/bottem combo is only better if u dont need much dex like a overall would give u.

Don't go to Str Top/Dex Bottom yet, with 4 base dex chances are it will hinder your training abilities for a small damage output increase. I think you should start looking into upgrading your weapon(Actually ignore this, I thought you warrior was level 103). Not sure where you are currently training, but switching to a PAC/Speed Cape would likely be beneficial. *Edit: Do not buy a deputy star. It's a waste of mesos(even for a dexless) for just 4 str/4dex more. Just wait till you can actually do the quest, or even better do the quest, sell the star, and wait on a MoN.

with 100m... a better weapon i.e. a rohen of a very decent doombringer would increase your att range, but remember you are going from fast 4 (2 with booster) to normal 6 (4 with booster) the pac would increase your range by about 3.1% so not a great deal at all.

Ahh. i think i'll look for a 3atk 4-6str pac. And maybe get a dep star to cover for half the lost acc from my 10dex cape I was wanting to upgrade my weapon, but i kinda want to wait til 80 to get a decent scrolled blue screamer, that way i dont have to switch now and then again at 80 you know? Oh and i already got a bigfoot toe, and getting a headless horseman head shouldnt be too hard.

Don't get the Dep Star; it's a minimal boost for so much money. At this level, people still recommend an IC2 cape scrolled with STR to help you move around faster. You could try getting yourself a better weapon. There are a lot Rohens out there with over 95 attack. Other than that, just start saving money up because equips are going to escalate in price. Edit: You could get the Rohen and wait until 90 to get yourself a nice DS and call that your endgame weapon until you're able to get enough money to upgrade to a better one. And switch the cape at 85 (Taru Spirit Cape).

THAT, i've seen rohens going with over 100 att from still a pretty decent price. dont get a PAC yet...

why is everyone suggesting the rohen over the doombringer/blue screamer? isnt rohen less attack...?

Rohen is superior to the Doombringer because of the accuracy bonus. And they're far more common than Doombringers. Finally, the attack difference between the two isn't that much. If you really want to, you could go upgrade to Blue Screamer/Heaven's Gate, but personally the way I would do it is wait, since you're going to be able to kill the monsters you train on in about the same number of hits or your main source of exp will come from MPQ until 85, by which you're already near level 90 anyways.

rohens are (or were) generally scrolled 'harder' than doombringers which would bring their average att on par with doombringers. plus the added goodness of the acc opens up windriadrs and other high acc training areas i would say to switch for a BS at 80 though.

At around 80 he should be switching to a different training area, and he'll need the ACC more than ever (Seeing as how he's dexless).

Around 80, Windraiders are still good exp. And a pot saver compared to Windraiders, even if you do have some Coma if you followed Senyain's build. MPQ isn't that bad either. But I don't think this is about training spots; we're deviating from the topic.

i've got about 135 acc with a accuracy pill. i think ill just go japanese map til 80 then go blue screamer (decent one) then when i hit 90 ill get a godly DS. and ill be set til 4th job and if i do ever get there ill get a godly 1hand/ shield combo =D
