I am currently a lvl94 LUK Chief Bandit. I have 100 base dex, and everything else is placed on LUK. I have a 16attk maple shield. The question is...should I convert to a STR dit or place AP on STR in order to equip let's say, a well scrolled dkhanjar at 120? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

I see no reason to start converting before level 110, but converting is something you should really consider.

with a 16 attack shield, i see no reason for you to convert just upgrade ur shield a bit since you could afford an attack one in the first place

Nightjackk2 : with a 16 attack shield, i see no reason for you to convert just upgrade ur shield a bit since you could afford an attack one in the first place The shield was self scrolled. I'm not sure if I want to risk using another 2 70% scrolls on it. All the non-str shads that I have heard of all have 24+ attk shields.

so if I can't afford a good atk shield should i convert to str at 120? I have 140mil in funding, can apq, and my equips are: Zhelm Speigelmann necklace (will get MoN) 2atk 10dex PAC 8 dex 4 luk shoes 10 atk wg dagger blows A clean d.khanjar is much cheaper than a good atk shield, so that's why I was wondering.

Im lvl 104 now...lvl110 is when i should start converting (if i decide to). i still don't know if i should convert or not. should i just try get a 20attk+ shield?

i think you should convert. Your dmg Increases in the long run When i finished converting my dmg range went up a whole 1000, And plus Dkhanjars are kinda cheaper.

0BEY : i think you should convert. Your dmg Increases in the long run When i finished converting my dmg range went up a whole 1000, And plus Dkhanjars are kinda cheaper. What attk shield did you have before you converted? I dont really have the funding at the moment to buy a godly scrolled dkhanjar. Surely, with the extra AP I put on Str and the extra attack gained from the dkhanjar will be eqivalent to me just putting all my AP on LUK. My attack range at the moment at lvl 104 is around 17xx-30xx. Does that influence the decision to convert to Str?
