Hey, Sorry but i really don't understand when an item has 5% dex, what does that mean exactly.. I know it adds 5% to you'r total dex, but I'm stuck on how to add it. Let's see if you can please help me out.. 1. Say I have 100 dex, and i put on a item that has 2%dex, what's my dex now? 2. Lets say I have 500dex, and i put on an item that has a 5%dex, Whats my dex? Just by answering those would help me out greatly, Or if you can give me a brief explanation on how to do it on my calculator or something, Thanks aton ;)

You take your total stat then multiply the % base in decimal form. ie. 500 + 500*.05 = 525

100 + 100 x .02 = 102....lol its basically 102% x 100 = 102 since % is x/100 on you calc type in your base dex, then click on the 'x' button to multiply, then type in the percent, then click the % button and click enter....if you dont have a % button type in base dex, then click '(' and type in the percent then divide by 100 then hit ')' and press enter....seriously you fail im sorry

Because I'm quite surprised you are not familiar with percents in decimal form. Think of fractions, whole numbers, and decimals. 1/1 or 1 will equal 100%, that being said, it'll be broken down into this 1/2 = .5 = 50% 1/4 = .25 = 25% 1/50 = .02 = 2% when switching from decimal to percent, you just move the decimal point 2 places to the right when switching from percent to decimal, you just move the decimal point 2 places to the left

1. 102 DEX. 100 x .2 = 102. 2% of 100 is 2. 2. 525 DEX. 500 x .5 = 525. 5% of 500 is 25.

i got some questions, how old are you? if you can't calculate 2% of 100 without some1's help or a calculator u should go ask ur school money back since they forgot to teach u math. but still 2% of 100=2 so it would be 102 5% of 500=25 so 525 i mean do 500:100=5=1% 5x5=25 1x5=5
