So I was wondering, will having a pure strengthless build for a gunslinger be worthwhile? And will extra strength boost up my minimum attack range more so than dex? Opinions would be nice. I was planning on using maple weapons, attack gloves, and tht sorta normal stuff that everyone else also uses.

STRless gunslingers are pointless. The extra ATT from the higher level guns are a lot better than the extra DEX.

str = level for a gunslinger. The str lost doesn't compensate for awesome weapons later. same with bowman since str = level as well. Now rogues.. dex = x2 level. Going dexless is a huge boost to your attack edit* if you really want, go ahead and be strless and use 35, 43, 64 weapons. When you hit 64, you'll have to convert to lowstr (assuming dep star + zhelm) and you won't get get any stronger for a couple of levels. (I had to go from dexless to 25 base on my warrior cuz accuracy issues and having the same damage for 3-4 levels blowed)

Not recommended. The highest STRless gun is the level 64 maple gun. The extra DEX you would get from going STRless would not compensate the bonus W.ATT you could get from higher leveled guns.

I think the new iTCG set which is coming out will have a level 90 and 100 statless gun... Not sure though... It'll definitely have new pirate stuff.
