but percent doesnt mean anything

think about this....if i add a point into str with a crappy weapon...i dont get all that much in return...not much damage (not talking % but actual damage)
but if i add that point into Dex when i have a crappy weapon...then I get more crits, and crits ignore defense...allowing for my bad weapon to still do a good amount of damage
so for most players, your damage will be better if you do dex after you have reached 5 str higher than your EE

Is the diminishing returns part true???

on actual amount of damage = yes
on % of damage = no

but most ppl care only about actual damage, so YES

no
strength is not subject to diminishing returns



you got your conclusion partially right but your yes/no wrong
actual damage is what people care about, and it is not diminishing
making me right

you couldn't give a shit whether you help ppl make the right decision on their stat points, just so long as "YOU ARE RIGHT" so here....you are right

now get out so we can help these ppl with what they are doing...since amount of damage is ALL THAT MATTERS for 99% of ppl in this game

ya I screwed up by partially agreeing with you, your conclusion was wrong not right, you are right in that actual damage is what people care about
but you were wrong in saying it is diminishing
it is not
so strength is not diminishing

and if I'm wrong I'll fess up to it, but as of now none of you have provided anything to discredit me, other than saying I have a poor attitude

thank god i play caster for all chars.... well dunno about headhunter...

INT INT INT

I think i might see JB's point, though I will have to do some math to decide...ill post later with my findings, but I wanted to say that if i showed any hostility in this post, then Im sorry...I didnt mean to

Easy there angry bear, we were all discussing this somewhat politly before. No need personal attacks. Oh and as far as him giving out bad advice I remember a topic not so long ago where people were encouraging more dex because faster attack speed O.o
