So do you use a Sword Belt +1 over Warwolf belt since 12 attack > 5 STR?

Page 2 of this thread was very useful to me. Just wanted to say thanks for that bit of knowledge. Its nice to be able to use rutters again without fear of losing the 6-hit.

I'm seriously more dumb after reading this thread, thank you. You just said that hauby = domaru with regards to nq. Yet was it not also said that Smilodon +1 > Cerb +1 because of the extra STR? If i'm not mistaken smilodon vs cerb is 1 str vs 15 attack, you give it to the 1 str. Hauby vs Domaru is 3 str vs 10 attack. Yet you give it to the attack. So please explain how 1 str < 15 attack but 10 attack > 3 str oh Mr. ICrunchSamNumbersForFun? Not even going to start on all the other BS that's been posted.

Well that's your reasoning for wanting to use Cerb mantle +1. Same logic applies buddy since you think attack doesn't cap.

Nice back pedal though.

If your belt did not have acc+5 which would you use? and please explain why.

Yes cerb mantle +1 is the best weaponskill piece for all jobs that can use it, period.
If you think I don't use strength, you're wrong. My gear sets are posted if you'd like to view them. I understand there is an attack cap, but your judging it to be way lower than it is.
Stick to playing thief please.

You guys are arguing over STR vs Attack, you have to consider the amounts you are gaining in each. Is 5STR > 12 attack? Yes, no questions asked, using this is an invalid argument. You are trying to give credence to using 1 strength over 15 attack, if I'm not mistaken the difference between 5 STR vs 12 Attack and 1 Strength vs 15 Attack is quite a big difference. And in case you're brain isn't up to it, I'll make it simple. 5 Str is bigger than 1 Str, and the 5 Str is being compared to a lower attack value, therefore the comparison is completely HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.

Oh I didn't even see your comment. I'd use warwolf still... Because 5 str > 12 atk. I'm not HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE. However 15 atk > 1 STR.

IF your STR is CAPPED 1 STR > 15 attack because THE EXTRA ATTACK WON'T DO ***.

I give up, apparently, you have a hard time understanding things.

Merry Christmas jackass. I hope Santa takes a dump in your stocking.

If you are at capped acc, are you going to add even more acc?

I was gonna add to this argument, but this is going in circles. The answers are already in the earlier pages of the thread about when STR > attack on things.

Yes indeed! Stop beeing an *** lol, what they said is true, you'r just arguing for the sake of arguing, arent you? :P
You even agreed to str -> atk when it's capped, that's all they'r trying to say.
