I know some people have recommended capping between 50-60, but don't. Capping at 60 dex is the cookie cutter "safe" build, and it's easy. You'll never have to worry about accuracy or a zhelm, but your damage will suffer a moderate amount. It's very easy to cap at 40 - 50 dex. All you'll need until level 50 is a 10 dex bathrobe (100%, with a total cost of 330k), 5 acc work glove (100% for dex, with a total cost of 150k), and some sniper pills (50k for 100). Meaning you'll only need 530k to fund your beginner with equips and sniper pills, and maybe 200k for pots. With those combined equips/pills with your base dex, it'll give you a total of 55 accuracy at 40 dex, 59 accuracy at 45 dex, and 63 accuracy at 50 dex. Seeing how you'll be training on brown teddies, sand rats, and other level 2x-3x monsters during your level 30s, you'll hit at a 100% rate with those equips at 40 dex, and going any higher will be useless (and killing your damage) seeing as you can already hit them 100%. The same applies during 4x, you'll still be training on level 3x monsters, and maybe a few 4x monsters, and still have a 100% hit rate with 40 dex. There's no reason to sacrifice 100 - 200 damage, when with a minimum of 1m funding, you can easily be 40 dex and have that 100 - 200 extra damage. Also once you get a zhelm, which most beginners do regardless of their dex, you can ditch sniper pills and those equips and be fine. (Zhelm gives +40 accuracy in total, the equivalent to 50 dex). The only issue with a dex cap of 40 is that you'll miss about 40% on Ligators in Kerning PQ, but I'm sure that's a small price to pay for great damage later on 2. Khaini and Oddballs. 3. 10 dex sauna, att/dex wg, zhelm at level 50, a couple of weapons. 4. Nimble Feet and Three Snails is the best in my opinion. Recovery is useful only if everything hits 1 on you. Nimble Feet is okay, but you could get an icarus (2), bathrobe, whip, and bone helm and have almost max speed without it. Three Snails is a must, because you can lure monsters, and increase training speed. 5. iSpamCTRL, WhackASnail, iHave6SP, ThrowinSnails, those are some "beginnerish" names. 6. Kerning PQ is GREAT for your level 25 - 30 equips, and getting some money from Overall Dex 10% scrolls. I recommend it the most, however, Subway PQ gives you faster levels from 25 - 31. At level 31-35, either grind or try to get a friend to CPQ you (you'll be leeching since you die too quickly and can't hit them well). From 35 - 45ish, do LPQ. 45 - 51, CPQ or |
