So I here many people saying that reg is still better and vice versa taking in the fact that Brawlers now have Maple equips. Can you guys tell me which is better based off experience / what they've seen? Please Post what you know, if not, think is better and possibly reasons why you know it is. Please don't waste my time with dum / impossible reasons because your not helping anyone, instead your just pissing me and maybe even others off. PLEASE ANY THANKS YOU!

Well I'm lvl 53 with 30 dex, And My Dmg is VERY High. I'm stronger than anyone i know, other than my friend with a 63 attack bracer, and cilbis. -_- I have a 17/17 Helm but it didn't help as much as a thought, because I was coming off my Chaosed agent hat, 12/15. If you where just using a normal hat, your dmg will rise a lot with a Helm. I have been sitting on 30 base dex for a while, waiting for an answer to come. I mean 2 lvls of dex wouldn't matter much if i decided on dexless, and i could switch to reg or low dex fairly quickly, as im lvling fast at 53. I am sorry I can't provide any more, but I am glad you made this thread, I look forward to the outcome. Is it possible to make a poll, if it is, then you definitely should :3

There is a significant difference if your REG dex (about 90 base dex) and dexless (20 dex). that 70 Dex that could be STR is about 12 attack (roughly) extra that could be bringing your damage up. Basically just go low Dex or as low as you feel you can afford.

It's not hard being a dexless, since your dex just needs to be your level. I am currently level 63 with 20 base dex, but 65 dex in total. When I buy a 15+ dex cape, I will have 80 dex. My final weapon will probably be a White Fangz, because I can't afford as much items as +80 dex. Only + 70-75 max. >_> I say go for a dexless brawler! Not that hard.

Im in about same situation as scoopy with my brawler. Level 53 with 35dex. At 53 the training is actually enjoyable and the leveling is quick. Keep your dex at its lowest.

lol Im not really sure if im low dex or not, but it seems that going dexless is cheaper and stronger. So if i were you id go dexless. I didnt go dexless because at the time I started my brawler there weren't any maple knuckles or guns.

I've got a base dex of 20 and I've managed to come up with enough dex to wear a White Fangz, right one the money, 90 dex. It was kind of hard since I don't wear a high dex cape nor even a scrolled helm but I think its worth it, I out damage almost everybody else in my class / level range, I've yet to meet a stronger Marauder than I near my level (85).

What you are is Low dex, and same as me and probably the topic poster. Dex-LESS is when you have 20 dex, and only use non pirate items, and maple Knuckles. Low dex is only better because normal knuckles are much cheaper than Maple Knuckles. But you still have to spend a lot of the money on dex equips, and it almost defeats the purpose. I recommend Low-dex if you plan on going over 90, and after the final knuckle (King Cent), you have no need to add dex ever again. I also recommend getting all of your main dex equips before ur final lvl 100 knuckle, so u can have as little base dex as possible, but with 100 as ur exact total. I recommend Dex-Less if you plan on only getting to about 100 max, because u will have the highest dmg up till then. Pirates have Maple Knuckles up to 64 and that's IT. Sins have lvl 80 and 90 Dexless claws, so that's why there actually are higher lvled dexless sins.

I say just go dexless.. or no more than 30 dex.

evilkilla23 07/16/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

i think dexless is really good but i saw a guide somewhere saying lowdex with overall str is the strongest type of brawler (proven fact) im a lowdex bucc and i really enjoy my damage :D so with dex earrings, zhelm, dex shoes and dex cape, u'll be great with a white fangz . if u want a FS and and maybe even wear a dragon slash claw then get a ht necklace

NrgxDiesel said: "I say just go dexless.. or no more than 30 dex." 30 base dex wouldn't be dexless.

LOL My bad jokes on me.

You know I didnt really think of this. But the like BEST possible thing to do would be: Go to the Pirate Dmg Ranges Post, and look at key lvl's (30, 50, 70, 10, 120) And then look at their amounts of dex, and just compare :3
