Is it worth the extra base dex for Stonetooth?

So unless you are INCREDIBLY funded, you need pretty high base dex (about 50 or 60) to equip a stonetooth sword, instead of 20-30 like I would have. Is this sword really THAT much better that it is worth all this extra dex to put in to just get Fast? Question: So should I go with 20 base dex and not a ST or ~60-70 base dex with ST? Please help.

i think i saw somewhere a 1h+shield combo beats the ST... given enough ATT on them.

NRW is also fast and it only needs 95 dex But Most ppl use ST cause it has higher Base Att If you can get a Really well scrolled NRW like 116+ att which will worth like 500mil+ You could use it instead of an ST

NRW and ST are the same speed i think correct me if i am wrong i dont think you should be getting any dex just to equip the ST you could just get another well scrolled sword for less and get Str equips

So does the Fast speed make THAT BIG a difference?

I love 2h, and I love fast weps... ST = heaven. I funded a ST with 75 base dex and about 100m. Give it 5 minutes before kira comes in and says "23 dex tops, I did it with 10 dex and 150m"

Not worth it to go ST unless you have 50+ DEX. If you got less than that than if you can afford to get all those Dex equips+ ST, You'd be better off with 1H+ 12+ ATT shield.

So should I go with 20 base dex and not a ST or ~60-70 base dex with ST? Damage-wise. Or if anyone have a different suggested base dex/weapon I'd like to know. :P

With all that DEX you would be giving up just to equip a ST, you would be better off going with a 1h sword and a shield. A good att Carabella, which is as fast as the ST, and a boost att with a shield, would outdo the ST.

"23 dex tops, I did it with 10 dex and 150m" =P nah with a ST, the situation is different of course, u wanna keep ur dex as low as possible, and even with extremely low dex, like 4, a ST is actually better than a 1h + atk shield combo, if u can wield it, and if the ST is reasonably decent (120+ attack) otherwise, u r much better off with a 120 atk sparta + 18 atk shield, seriously

if u want a stonetooth that badly, u could just start pumping a few points (like 10-15) into dex ur last levels before 100 =]

Well, I like good damage, but I also do like speed so I'm willing to definitely sacrifice some damage for the extra attacks. So if anyone could directly answer yes or no to this question it would be great, 'So should I go with 20 base dex and not a ST or ~60-70 base dex with ST?' Other info is still great though, keep the replies coming.

" i'd say NO the money you will waste trying to get really really good dex equips with the 20dex setup would mean you could get a much higher att ST. with 20 base dex that means you need to make up 90 dex through equips. not try to work out how to do that as cheaply as possible
