Im level 141. ATM dexless 4 dex. Im as funded as i need to be. Equips arnt an issue No i aint a NX whore. If im 141 with a base dex of 40 ~ 60, get dex equips for a lampion or a 72 att craven, rather than a 56 att skanda with luk equips. which would be stronger? Im getting mixed signals from everyone in kradia. Leave opinions, no dissapointing comments =[ <3

It doesn't really matter. I was looking through some damage ranges for nightlords, and a 144 nightlord suprisingly beat a 177 nightlord's range. They were both low dex, but the 144 nightlord had like a 91 craven? The more attack, the more damage. Looking through those damage ranges told me that LUK doesn't really affect much.

Why don't you post your stats (base luk, total luk, total dex, and total watt excluding claw) so we can calculate it? Generally low-dex is stronger in the endgame.

well at early stages dexless beats lowdex but when your about your level lowdex beats dexless but i suggest being a low dex craven user with 40base dex and getting dex equips for a craven

I've heard of this... 10-120 Dexless Win 120-200 Low Dex Win

It comes down to a question of what kind of equips you are able to get your hands on. personally, I think that the difference between the two builds is inherently so small that staying dexless is more economical to save the bother of having to find equips all over again. if you have a 30 luk robe, go figure, you would probably be better off just keeping it and staying dexless. the whole difference between the two is that low dex gets benefit from split stat items whereas dexless does not. conversely, dexless has better inherent damage since the 160 (or whichever end game weapon you choose) dex prerequisite more than negates the weapon attack difference yielded by having a higher att claw. Bottom line is that if you have a lot of luk equips, stay dexless and dont bother, if you have a lot of split stat equips, low dex might be better. Personally, I would rather invest the time and meso into finding a godly skanda or NRC
