What are the pros and cons ? Is the extra savage with more points in dex?

better damage when upped (CS)
more points in dext means better block %

so either not upped and gets you more vita or upped and more block chance

not an expert, but hope this helps

You should always up them
Pvm jav amazons should use thunderstroke or 6/40 javelins for better lightning dmg
Eth titans give you better physical dmg to kill lightning immune monsters, which are still immune after infinity, but after the sunder charms that's not needed
In any case, upgrading them is better, you'd need the dex to wear thunderstroke, which is a better option anyway

In Pvp all the amazons have a mb setup, so you shouldn't have problems with dex

So why is thunder stroke better that Titans? I thought titans was the top tier? PVM by the way.

They have -light res built in. Titans are still a great choice, tstrokes will get you more damage though

Yea, the -light res and the attack speed, it's very likely you'll reach a higher attack speed breakpoint with tstroke

It depends on the rest of you gear, so you should use a speed calculator to see what you need to adjust

If my calculator is correct, you'll get + 1 frame speed on your fury with your gear if you use tstroke
Not possible to socket a javelin, but if it was, you could also socket the other jav so it wouldn't have mattered
Eth weapons have 50% higher base physical damage compared to non-eth weapons of the same type and they look transparent when equipped, that's all
You don't need an eth tstrokes, because 99% of your damage on a jav ama is lightning from your skills, not physical from your javelin

Thank you!
So t strokes would be the way to go for more damage. Is one frame a lot?
