1 stat = 3life so 9 points in str=27life wasted


It's not for starting any points into str. Nn stat into str for Smiters.

The 40/9 jewels work because str=Ed. So it's basically a 49 Ed jewel.

the point is to build without adding str yes
but that str needs to come from somewhere if your trying to wear a ap without adding str
ammy, gloves, jewels w/e

you can pretty easily get enough str from gloves and ammy alone but ya

I know. I use 40/20's in my shields. N get enough str from gloves And ammy for ap.

The point of the 40/9 jewels wasn't so you could wear ap though, even though that is a way it could be used. Idk how u Thot i meant that lol. I mentioned them because they can be an option since 9str = 9ed so it's a 49 Ed jewel. And I think Steve or someone did calculations and the hp the extra Ed takes from enemy is about the same as the bonus hp that the 40/20's give ur own life.


/moral of story tho
IMO 30/9/9/30lr > 30/9/9/60ar (if u stat the dext) > 40/20's > 40/9's
