O.oa It 'sounds' good in theory... But how do you compare against actual DD's? Or are you just doing 1-5 dmg per hit and feeding the Gob TP? >.>


At low lvls 20-30 for ex. Most DD's base stats don't have that wide of a spread tbh. While its silly, a well geared Brd would prob be on the same DOT lvl as a thf or even a little better, but minus the strong WS.

Low lvl mob tp moves are /doze anyway. Bomb toss is annoying but meh, and jamming wave would be dumb to stand in range of, but other than that I wouldn't be too worried.

Interesting. Maybe I'll try it if I ever finish Brd on my character and lvl it to 40.
Before, when I'd lvl it on my brother's/friend's characters in a pre-merit pt I'd just stick to the back-line.

I could also see this possibly being used in libri (lvl 55) pts. If you were to build a 2brd pt and have one of them geared very well for DD purposes.

Using dagger vs pierce mob of course.

That's right folks. AGI = Haste. You read it here.

FACT: 5 Agi merits = +5% Haste.

Get to work. Your argument is invalid.

As an easier demographic, let's refer back to D&D:

Strength = Attack & Front Line Melee Weapon to Weapon Skill Potency.
Dexterity = Accuracy; Critical Hit Rate.
Agility = Haste; Parrying; Evasion. Ranged Weapon Skill Potency.
Vitality = Physical Stamina.
Charisma = Confidence; Potency.
Mind = Healing Magic. Healing Magic Potency.
Intelligence = Black Magic Potency. Magic Attack.

For those who didn't see the whole thing.

Doesn't CHR also help your resistance to charm or bard debuff songs? Or am I mistaken?

Mytoy really half-assed his attribute guide, but yes, CHR affects resistance to said abilities and songs. It also affects "Killer" potency. And VIT also increases cure potency. And <.< STR increases Melee BLU spell damage, etcetcetc.

supposedly it does. Generally in this game things are really about difference in a particular stat/stats between user and victim

Yeah, didn't mention that. Figured anyone who cared enough would know that BLU melee spells are based off melee stats and weapon equiped. The "Killer" thing is only a theory, but meh.

Main points were that agi =/= haste, there are modifiers on melee ws besides str, and that str affects all WS [not just melee WS (ranged too!)].

until you hit the fstr cap... which is pitifully low for most daggers...
