I'm STRless, and I plan on using a Nishada to 90. How much attack should it be at minimum if I wanna keep up with average unfunded Reg-STR's?

depends. There are soo many low str, and soo many damage ranges for low str.

around 100+? That's what I would get if I were strless :X But I'm too lazy to fund myself like that :D

About 98+. The faster attack rate of a nishada should keep up. My friend had a 106 nishada till lvl 14x, then he went low str (37 base) to wield a 126 godlen neschere.

Really? Because mine will probably end up as 93 atk =P So am I screwed? I can't afford another one. EDIT: 5 60%'s worked on mine (it was above average). If a fellow Dark Raven user had the same luck (meaning a 101 atk Raven), then it would be 101 to 93. Is 76 extra DEX not enough to make up for 8 atk?

No. You aren't screwed. Pots, my friend.

Off-Topic: I heard that STR-less Crossbowmen turn out horrible in later Lv.'s. So wouldn't it be pointless to be STR-less?

But if I have access to Pots, so do they D= @ blob: If you read my post it said that I plan to change to a lvl 90 Crossbow at lvl 90. So no, it's not pointless. But my IGN is screwed.

I would say ~100 att, but you'll survive with 93 if that's what you want to stick with. Most lvl 80 xbowmen have about a 105 actually, I think, but still, you'll survive if you really want to shoot for 90 instead of 80. Your extra DEX will cover most or all of the ATT difference, at least until you start your conversion to low STR anyway.

OK, ty for all the responses! I think I will stick with my Nishada - not worth getting a better one before a Z-Helm anyway - and then upgrade to at least 105 atk Night Raven.

But my IGN is screwed." Either way, you'll damage will be up to par, or close to it. Lol @ your IGN thing...name changes are too expensive, though. >.< Your plan sounds good.

OK, ty for all the help, now time to get 6 more levels so I can actually WEAR my Nishada.

There's some guy that has 170 STR (don't remember how much of it was base, but it was more than necessary) and is steadfast in insisting he's made the smart decision, because eventually 160, 170 etc. bows will come out. Lol, can you say denial?
