ive dueled you in zvz duels where i didnt have any charms in on my zealer
as i remember i beat you a couple times but you won the majority... but the main reason why i beat you was because you weren't hitting frequently enough
now, more than ever zealers need to have higher ar - with eth shaft builds having 60k+ def & levi's having 52k+, having only 12k ar usually doesnt cut it
i would add more into dex than is just required for max block, granted you lose life - but zeal duels are usually 4-5 hit duels anyway, losing even 200 life isnt going to make or break a duel, but gaining 2-3k ar will
just my 2 cents, you can follow or not - but vouch on the gear in stash though, i use almost all of it
