After watching a few videos about "After the Big Bang" I decided that I'll go with a class I originally wanted to play, but ended up scrapping due to CK <__<" I'm going to go with Gunslingers. :C but I'm not sure what AP build I should pick, so I decided to ask you guys :P Strength-less? If so then why? Low strength? If so then where should I cap strength, and why? Regular strength? If so why? I appreciate any help, or suggestions I can get! o3o

I would like to know this as well :3 Where do Slingers usually cap their STR?

I capped at 60, gonna use reverse. str-less is generally a bad idea.

I don't want to start a character and fund it with expensive stuff only to see that the big bang made some of those items fairly useless. ;~; I might just go low str, and then buy a few Str equips to boost my str up to be able to wear a timeless?

I think go a litle str-less using only the str from items that give dex like zhelmet and deputy start and belts becouse dex is cheaper then str so you can scroll more dex.

I went for 50 base STR. I currently have the right set of gear to wear lvl 100 items (boots, gloves, gun). If i could find or cube better stats on an 80 overall, i'm sure i could push that STR high enough to use a 110 or 120 gun if needed.

i have 50 base and about 110 with equips on i use a conc you could easily push for 120 str as im using mostly dex gear 120-50 = 70 18 str scar 20str overall (the pirate ones) 5 str MON 5 str belt (or atk belt) 2 str medal depending on scrolls/potentials you can get bonuses with shoes and cape as well making it not too difficult

Right now I don't have much funding, only around 50M, but I also have 30K NX right now Which I plan to use on the MTS, to get myself a few of my STR equips (Is this a good idea?)

I don't plan to raise my str above 40, and I should be able to equip a reverse gun.

if you are using your potentials for str then you could be missing out on a lot of damage; if i have 600 base dex before the % are calculated, 3% dex would give me 18 dex as opposed to 10 str it could give; maybe you could get lucky with 3% dex and 5 str but eventually you'll trade up to epic. consider getting an HTP for 22 str and making it epic with dex 6% or more. Maybe use a 100% advanced enhancement scroll (most enhancement scrolls are 80%) ONCE on what you can, make your own gear using advance str crystals (ore is a common drop from galloperas). You can get to 101 str (scarlion, htp, medal, lilan ring or the future mechanic ring, gloves, overalll shoes, scarlion helm, belt) without using str scrolls, chaos scrolls, potentials, or enhancements with a base str of 23.

Go with whatever you have funds for. If 100m+ go with low str, if not go regular. I know certainly that im going regular :P

Lowstr is the best endgame option. I personally have 41+63 str. If I went any lower, then I wouldn't be able to wear my 10 atk, 3% dex skellduke.
