dex has the same effect on axes as swords. dex doesn't make your crits hit the higher end of the weapon - it jsut makes them increase by a higher % and make them more likely to happen.
With a sword yes, you may hit 2k where an axe only crits for 800, but remember the sword is just as likely to hit for the lowest possible roll as the highest. it'll average out as being exactly the same.
Thats what I meant, just didnt explain it well at all. DEX won't increase the amount of damage you do, weather crit or normal hit or low hit, that's STR's job. Dex makes your crit frequency go up.
Mah bad, mah bad!

so there's no difference in amount of dex/str than is optimal for different weapons

correct
