first, i would like to say that most of what i'm about to say needs to be confirmed by an experianced player, so keep yours eyes open for mistakes.


i've played alittle bit with attack speed calculator which i really don't know if it's reliable but lets say it is

with 2 axes which i believe will end up adding say somewhere around 200 damage to your over all damage. now most blades don't use axes because of they're slow much slower than swords but i noticed that with max haste and gt and 60 dex you can have maxed speed which takes care of speed.

now here are some of the problems that i'm running into
1- is dex is 60 dex too low and can i actually hit things 10+ levels higher with 60 dex
please do take into consideration that a +6 or 7 set adds +20% to hit rate.

2- well i need someone to confirm the whole issue with the calculator thing. bottom line is i really don't know if it's reliable.

last but not least is how much stam do i really need at say level 7x or even 8x

1) It's a reliable calculator
2) You will need a lot more than 60 DEX
3) GT doesn't last for more than a minute
4) lol axe

[KingKong]

why what is so good about dex when you're speed is maxed out and you never miss
it's just feels like you're adding points into int..
and what the heck is lol axe suppose to mean i mean there is a one handed axe in this game for a reason

Blazing sword adds accuracy, Smite Axe adds defense.

Most Blades would choose accuracy over defense.

[KingKong]

it adds +10 to hit rate at level 20
accuracy -assist buff- adds +20 to hit rate at llevel 20 and +10 at level 10
i guess what i'm trying to say is that are you willing to sacrifice say 200 damage a hit
for +10 to hit rate and do you really need that +10

I'll dig up my old axe blade topic later, lots of good stuff there.

[KingKong]

ya that would be great

I noticed that the attack speed for 2 swords is almost precisely the same as it is for sword with an axe in the off hand.

So if you want a little attack boostage without the loss of speed or accuracy put an axe in your off hand.

Also, I have 80 dex and I miss quite frequently going after things 7+ levels higher than me. I haven't tested my miss rate since I got my set +5'd earlier, but I'd say you still miss at least a little bit.

With 60 dex you'd better be looking to capitalize your hit rate bonuses.
