This probably won't help much with the equips, but it'll help you rethink your dexless Hero: In kMS Tespia, a new accuracy formula was introduced, making accuracy a percentage. Dexless characters lose a LOT of accuracy...

Disregarding whatever recent accuracy/avoidability changes -may- be coming to GMS... As for the pac/sauna dilemma: To be quite honest, you won't need a duckload of accuracy until, say, himes (and I'm not even sure when Crusaders go there). I would say dex, for the sole purpose of having the equips last for a long time. I did fine with more or less your equips until himes posed a challenge at 8x. At that point I would take a 20 dex over a 20 str any day. Unfortunately I can't take the time to calculate your total accuracy... it's nighttime... @ above: I didn't look too far into the recent changes for KMS, but I thought it only impacted you negatively if you had pure accuracy equips? Which is a dilemma since accuracy is so much cheaper...

Tespia is Korea's MapleStory's test server where they test everything before releasing it to the other MapleStory servers. Judging from Evans and DualBladers' release... it'd probably be implemented in gMS in a few months, probably over summer.

[/quote] Sorry if I sound like an idiot, but question: Might we not be getting it later than that since we didn't get the balance patch yet?

@Tientien What do you mean 120?

I didn't see indepth into how the accuracy percentages work. But doesn't it mean you benefit in the long run (if we get the same changes) by investing in dex equips rather than accuracy?

@Augst Thank you very much for all the information you have given me ^_^ Dex>ACC?

No, I was just asking whether the changes made in the test server makes dex equips even more expensive than they already are. But as it stands, unless you're going to be some ST/NRW user (probably not due to att shield), it's acc > dex. Edit: Yeah I'm going to poof too. Too bad I'm such a Fighter/Sader/Hero nub; I'm not too clear on what's better - that Astral Blade you plan on using, or a Red Katana. I would bet on the RK but yeah, I wouldn't know yet...
