So my guildlies said dexless used to be great, but now low-dex and reg dex far outshine them. Some other sins told me it didn't matter as long as you had good equipment. Whats your guys' opinion? And also: Dexless: Luk equips Low-Dex/Reg-Dex: mix of luk and dex equips. If I'm low-dex, which pieces should I get, luk, and which should I get dex? (overall, shoess, etc.)

well low dex outshines everyone and reg dex does outshine dexless in the long run but by far dexless is cheapest and theres less worry involved about having enough dex for your new claw so in other words dmg wh0res= low dex people who just dont give a rats a** = reg dex dmg whores but want to be less stressed and dpnt have a whole lot of cash = dexless

Dexless: You have to be extremely funded to make up for your lack of attack in comparison to low dex and/or reg dex. It only does greater damage from levels 1-100 (or so). All of your equips SHOULD be luk. Low-dex: Possibly the best choice, mainly because your equips can consist of dex and luk equips. You only have to be moderately funded to buy all of your equips. Will outshine both dexless and reg-dex in the later levels. Reg-dex: Easiest to play since you don't really need to worry about equips and cost of dex equips. The damage in comparison to low-dex or dexless is not that great. How you play is up to you. Enjoy ct'd: Low-dex should get a dex bottom and a luk top. your shoes should be "maker"ed for luk and scrolled for dex.

Honestly, dexless only shines in the prefourth job levels while you're still using L7. I still haven't switched to low dex on my NL and I probably never will because I'm satisfied with my damage as of right now. It might not be the best but it's certainly not the worse. I have heard of people that go dexless with high att cravens, lampions, and sleeves, but that is way too expensive for most maplers to even think about, but ideally that would be the best.

I think its best to go dexless now because when stage 3 of the event gets here you can get a lvl 127 dexless claw.
