Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out where to cap my Str on my slinger before i get too high. My character will have a 15 Str zhelm, 5 Str MoN, 2 Str Glasses, and at least 6 Str shoes, equaling 28 Str in equips there. Now I was wondering if it's worth it to scroll my overall and cape for Str and cap it even lower, around 60ish? Or if I should just have a higher Str cap and scroll my overall and cape for Dex instead. Thanks

None. Scrolling for STR is pretty useless since scrolling stuff for DEX is a lot easier. I'd just go with equips that can get you both. 15 STR zhelm, 5 STR MoN, 2 str glasses. That's 22 STR so far. I'd add an advanced power crystal to your shoes and overall, then scroll them for DEX. The level 80 overall has 6 STR base, and with a power crystal, that'd be 11 STR. The level 90 shoes have 5 STR base, and with a power crystal, they'd be 10 STR. That's 43 STR with all of your equips scrolled for DEX, meaning that if you go for a concerto, you could have 57 base :o

You could also get rings or get a dex bottom str top combo.

You could have 50 base str and spend a ton tryiing to get 50 str from eqs, or add 100 str and *easily* get 100+ dex from eqs.

u only really might need a max of 30 str bonus if u want a concereto cause its reccommended to cap at 70 instead of wasting money on str

I capped at 70 and I find it good. You could probably use a reverse gun if you get the equips the first poster said.

DfineLove : isnt buying dex equips mess up Maple warrior or something like that? i heard the more dex equips u buy the less u get for maple warrior on dex or str something like that not sure but Yes I also heard that it's more beneficial to have str equips as maple warrior works off your base stats. I'm not 100% sure it's just something a friend told me. Can anyone confirm this?

Compare a 30 dex overall to a 30 str overall. With the 30 str overall you can keep your base str 30 lower and you'll get 3 more dex from MW. That's not even a level of damage. If you upgraded to a 33 dex overall you'd get the same bonus even without MW.
