Cleave debuff is too good to pass…
It definitely does affect your AA.
Granted, you might need to invest a lot into dex to see a really big improvement(think around 200 dex). Though, I reset my lv200 swordie’s stat into 95 str and 100 dex rest into con, and I can still see the improvement on that regard.
On topic, I went from a HL3 - Rod2 to a Sw3 - HL1 - Cor2 and I can say I’m definitely loving the change of pace. Though, a question that I have is that if it falters on R8 content and upwards. Planning to get Cor3 on R7 and Shinobi for R8(since there’s not actually any other alternative… right?), but this’ll be a solo farming char, so it might not really be a big of an issue… maybe. Stats-wise I’m thinking of going 3/1/1 Str/Con/Dex respectively.
you going for that build? I’m still having a hard time theorycrafting a murmilo pvp build. so if that build, pure str? or with a little bit of con? for the weapon, is pierinne sword enough?
