I'm low dex, and I wanna know if I should go for a Dex helm or a Str helm? I plan on wearing a ST.

Accuracy helm in general is most beneficial for warriors, for obvious reason. But if you need the extra 7 dex(accuracy scrolls also add on dex, just not as much) or so from a similarly scrolled dex helm to wear your ST go dex i suppose, but that's usually around twice the cost.

As a 4 dex warrior, I'd rather have a dex zh than a acc one. While acc is nice, lowering my minimum damage is nice too. then again I'm also a 4 dex BW White knight hahah

Lol the price you're paying for the dex zhelm is not worth the 2-3 damage added.

It doesn't. Compare a 30 dex helm (+8) to a 23 dex 36 accuracy helm (+8) 7 dex difference, for around half the price. You're paying hundreds of millions of mesos for 7 dex instead of 16 accuracy. GG.

It doesn't require proof. I guarantee that 300mil+ could've added more minimum damage.

unless you need dex for a weapon, dex helm for warriors is a waste of cash. if you think jigglyjello is lying to you, then go ahead and waste your money on a dex helm lol. not our messo. :P

Yeah, but it's a wasted helm that could've been put to better use by a Bowman or Corsair. Think of the social efficiency, people!

I like how no one even tries and stops me from wanting to wear a StoneTooth. Which is the only reason you need dex. Everything else should just go into acc becuase acc is needed much more than dex. I knew this already btw.

get zh, and scroll it with 70% acc scrolls. they cheap, and way more benfit for warriors than the dex scrolls (2 acc + 1 dex >> 2 dex | the 2 acc alone are > 2 dex).

well i dont suggest scrolling until you're able to do regular zak runs, unless you're feeling lucky of course :P And noone tries to stop you because the ST is fantastic weapon, well worth the 120 dex req.
