OK, so we did some catas but we had to run with maze close to completion :cry:

Went from lvl 54-60 and finished with 1.18m damage with my dagger.

Stats are:
195 str
70 dex
15 int
65 vit

Weapon is:
Mystical ultimanium dagger
Level Req: 55
Damage: 474 to 829

+192% Enhanced Effect
+2 Mana Regen
+1% Block

Armor is:
Mystical spiderthread robe
Level Req: 55
Defense: 0 to 22

+55 Strength
+2 Magic Luck
+1% Mind Numb

Charm is:
Rare ice XI
Level Req: 40
Spell Damage: 60 to 72
Mana Cost: 105

+43 Strength
+1 to 3 Life per Kill


Finished with Total Damage of: 184 min, 677 avg, 2146 maximum

Now, the damage I took was less than 81 dmg per attack on 486 hits total wearing a 55 robe with only 70 DEX.

With balanced gear I've never had my avg damage work out to over 580 avg dmg, so........... IMO strength outscores dexterity by about 100 avg damage per hit in my particular case.


What say you ????? :bouncy:

Opinion and sample size not to mention you are not comparing it to anything else. Also full gear would be useful because if you have something like powershot it will greatly improve your max damages.

Your average damage is most optimal when your str and ee are balanced as much as possible, 192 ~ 195 ;)

but some dex to go beyond that after balancing your str with your weapon's ee will possibly help you crit more, take less critical damage

Updated first post to show full gear.

I will also do the same run from 54-60 if possible next climb and do a balanced setup (assuming I don't pass to WL ;) ). I will give a new topic with a full comparison of both setups and screenshots. Won't be perfect comparison but I think alot of people will be shocked with the final results.

Erm - it all really depends about your

Build
Char
Weapon

ie - Swords would be smarter to have dex ; whereas daggers/clubs would be more aimed for a str build on say.. a barb?

your fine, if your EE is as high as yours is...

but if your EE was only 100, then your STR higher than 100 or 110 would be diminishing returns, and Dex would be pretty important then

I usually average that amount with my monk with staffs (even str/dex build) and my fighter with swords (more dex than str, but still pretty even) with gear worse than yours. I mean congrats no doubt, but i could say just as much for a balanced build. *shrugs*
