Which cape is a better cape overall? (training,damage, etc) The IC2 has 8 str and 10 speed. The PAC is 2 atk 8 dex. The fighter is soon to be 50 and I need to choose one. I don't think my fighter has any accurcy problems, it has 8x-9x accurcy without sniper pills. Please help me choose which one.

The speed will be a great aid in training. Since you're not an aran, you can't simply combat step from mob to mob.

The PAC, no brainer. Also, doesn't just wearing it make you feel pro? xD

You can use them both, depending on, do you want to speed yourself up or more accuracy and attack with less speed? Depends on where you train and what level you are :f

IC2 IMO, because of the speed boost. 2 att might boost your dmg like by 100. Not too helpful...

I'd say whichever is cheaper, or PAC. Nah, pac actually.

So in terms of damage the PAC is better? What about training? I heard speed was a big factor in training

[quote] pokemongao30 : So in terms of damage the PAC is better? What about training? I heard speed was a big factor in training [/quote] The PAC is probably scarcely better for your damage right now. The 10 speed will help cut down on the time that you're not tearing up monsters, speeding up your training.

The IC2 shouldn't do anything different for your DPS. Right now your STR:ATK is probably lower than 4:1 (meaning 4 STR > 1 ATK at your level), and if it is, the IC2 is a far better choice. Unless you think 6.4 accuracy is better than 10 speed.

Whats the formula to find out how much str is equal to one attack?

I was going to use an 1 2 for training, but with speed pants, was able to use my pac while maintaining max speed >;D. Once you hit lv 100, maker nice speed pants although before then, an icarus 2 cape is always nice to use =D.

2 att is hardly going to make a difference. If you dont have 20 speed pilled right now, get the ic2. Trust me training wise you'll feel way better. Coming from a fellow fighter being slow is brutal. As for shoes, get white bottoms and scroll them for acc. 8 dex is 6.4 acc which you can make up w/ shoes. Maker another pair later when you have maker level 2. ( This is a lowbudget fighter)

[quote] pokemongao30 : Whats the formula to find out how much str is equal to one attack? [/quote] It's roughly your STR divided by your ATK. This includes everything you carry around and attack buffs you'll use while training. Bookmark this.
