[scorpio1690]

Robby you're a liar. I tried four at least fifteen minutes for a 4/4 and the best I could get was 5/4 str int.

[-Fallen-]

Well I can easily roll them within 2-3 minutes.

h4x!

[ProtoMDS]

WEEHEE, ANOTHER ONE!

Anyone know what this is worth? I'm taking a stab at 10 mil, I'll edit my post if i get it sold for that price.

EDIT: gone for 9.5
EDIT 2:

That's one of my goals achieved: hit 10 mil . I 'spect it'll all be gone by the time I hit lvl 70, though.

[scorpio1690]

I don't think that's quite worth 10mil, you'll probably be able to find a buyer for that if you don't go to Basil though, there's an 86 att scrolled going for 8mil. I bet it if it 87+ it'd be 10mil.

Proto is pure polearm AND high dex? Ouch....... >_>

Note: Biorhythm has 42 base dex and I would average 5hkos on grims.

You need good gear to be able to be a good low dex like 42. Average low dex is like 60-70, although that's still good. Lowest dex is the best. No clue why you think it's more stable.... Stability is in average number of hits. Higher dex you'll have a much smaller range (SLIGHTLY higher minimum - MUCH lower maximum) than a low dex range...

Plus pure polearm... >_> Yuck... Biorhythm is a 1.5. Polearm had FA. Boosters were at 12 spear and 6 polearm. Only 12 in booster for spear is AWESOME because once booster runs out, it tells me I have 35 seconds until hyperbody runs out. Thus I do them at the same time (along with blood).

I don't really see the advantage of being pure polearm. From my experience, it seems crusher basically owns fury in every aspect. It does more damage, handles mobs better, looks better (IMO). I just really don't see the point of pure PA, I guess it's probably something like a BW WK? (Made for unqiueness).

ABout high dex being more stable, wtf? Never heard about that before. I forget proto, what's your base dex again? I currently have 73 base dex, and at level 76 I have a 95% chance to hit death teddies with my dex equips. Next level it will be 100%. Like noah and I have said, NEVER add dex unless it is COMPLETELY necessary to strengthen your hit accuracy.

From most of the PA's I know, it is about the kb. The polearm attack (too lazy to recall or look it up, just got back from school -___-) the one that swings does much more damage, it is just like arrow blow compared to ds or strafe. Crusher doesn't really "own" the swinging attack, it is just more stable. I don't see a point in PA just because DKs in general are priest whores. Other then cheaper prices... seems pointless to me but I'm not one to judge.
O_o
PS: I can make about 600k at lusters an hour and get 4%. That is decent exp and crazy money O__O I need to save up money because I'm going to 60% scroll my dark falcon for hp and 60% jump for my shoes >< I have all my equips now, including metal heart earrings. I also plan on dying my hair blue for when I hit 80 since I have extra nx. Yay.

[vashthestampede0987]

Falc, I'll buy the scroll off you.

[Earth_and_Salmon]

Do any of you guys play in Windia? I really want to find some FFR peoples that play in Windia...

[IAAW]

Most of us FFR'ers is in Bera. I'm in Broa. Pretty much the only one there. =(

[AnxiousJosh]

IAAW we can hook up on broa sometime , im a lvl 105 mage, you?

[ProtoMDS]

:P everyone is poking fun at me because I'm pure pole arm.
Well, I made my decision back at lvl 29-ish, based on the availability of the lvl 30 weapon (I had a 55 attack mithril pole arm sitting there waiting for me). Things happened, and well, I just stuck to my guns/pole arms.
Plus, I don't really care about the whole "hi-dex low-dex argument", I've made 59 levels high dex, and I'm gonna do it the whole way.
POLE ARMS FTW!!!!!!!! :P
THE GREAT EDITTO: I really don't see a problem with Pure Pole Arm and Hi-Dex. Someone care to enlighten me?
THE GREAT EDITTO 3: Keeto, my DEX is currently at 90. I plan to Cap it at 100, and I think my accuracy rate at Death ( I MEAN SOUL) Teddies is almost the same as yours.

[TheAznLarry]

KEEEEEEEETOOOO

I'm gonna need my doom back soon

I think I might lvl tomorrow. If I'm lucky, I could get in 3rd job TODAY but I doubt it. I've still got a pretty big physics lab and tons of other random crap to do. Ugh.

Good money, yeah, but REALLY BAD EXP

DO NOT DO THAT.

HP IS NO GOOD FOR ANYONE BUT PRIESTS.

IF YOU SCROLL A HELM, SCROLL FOR DEFENSE.

HOWEVER, I WOULD RECOMMEND SIMPLY NOT SCROLLING AT ALL.

Basically, HP is only any good if it will make a difference between you surviving a hit or not surviving a hit (or multiple hits). You still take the same amount of damage as you did before. Therefore, your pot use rate will remain the same. If your defense is increased, even slightly, your damage will be less. When your damage is less, your pot rate use, in theory, is lessened slightly, hence saving you A LITTLE money.

That's not really how it is though, You can only take something like 2 hits from DT right? Which means you probably just pot every time you take damage. I imagine there would be overuse of potions, so higher defense is irrelevent when it's that little.

The best solution is, in the end, to not scroll them at all.

The only real benefit for scrolling a helm I can see for anyone at all besides priest is 10% helm def. It adds accuracy.

Regarding the purepolearm: Not a big deal. Spears are cooler (stable damage or something... I dunno... people already went over this), but polearms have their strengths as well (which everyone has already mentioned in detail as well). The high dex thing is stupid though. Like evilbutterfly said, high dex won't let you level on things of higher level because level is ALWAYS more important than accuracy when you're a lower level. All it will do is lower your max damage by a lot and raise your min damage by a little.

Keeto, my DEX is currently at 90. I plan to Cap it at 100, and I think my accuracy rate at Death Teddies is almost the same as yours.

And you're surely substantially weaker.

Let's see... i'm a 1x warrior who used to be a 3x sin... that goes together, huh? But if you wanna hook up sometime then yes, I would be delighted. IGN is IAAW just so you know.

[evilbutterfly]

For proto or whatever your name is, go to the accuracy calculator and put in your accuracy/level for DTs and tell us your hitrate: http://glue.umd.edu/~mdevries/acc.html

After that, see how your accuracy needed and hitrate would change if you were 5 levels higher. It makes a big difference. See, Keeto is smart about his warrior because he puts his stats into the calculator and sees if he'll be able to 100% hit things with what he has. Thing is, if you're low dex, you can always put on some dex equips and have the equivalent accuracy as a higher dex warrior. However, once you're able to hit things without that dex gear, you can switch to str/attack gear instead and do way more than the dexful person who can't get rid of their dex. Low dex has more versatility in that they're able to be both strong and accurate. Low dex is stuck with weaker but more accurate hits and can't just equip something to exchange dex for str/attack.

Also, about dex increasing the min. It does less for that than str does. For polearms, dex increases min by 1/100 per watk. Str increases min by 1.62/100 per watk. For 2h swords, dex does 1 while str does 2.484. So uh, yeah, dex does **** for min damage, and should only be added if you need it to hit things. Your hit rate on DTs shouldn't matter at this point cuz you're not going to level there for a while. Thus, don't worry about them, just make sure you're hitting yetis or whatever you're on now.

And the reason the spear skill is better is because it does WAY more damage. The only way the polearm one can do more is if it's hitting 5-6 monsters, which doesn't happen nearly as often as hitting 2-3 monsters does. The polearm skill does have longer range and does its hits all at once, so it can KB a little bit better (170% vs 250% in a single hit). Hilariously enough, Power Strike outdamages the swinging skill (260% vs 250%) when you're up against just one monster. LO-friggin-L.
