Feedback about STR and INT

These two stat are once underpowed by all another stat such DEX and CON and even SPR in some case, and it’s lead to a buffed 10% increase per class advancement.

And you know what? it’s still under powered.

The reason is , most of the skill in this game have fixed ATK.
The skill damage formula is simple [Character’s ATK + Skill base damage] x Number of hits = Total skill damage.

and character’s ATK is [Character STR/INT + Weapon ATK + Character lv base ATK]

In short, STR/INT is only a tiny fraction in almost every skill in this game.

So investing your stat in STR or INT have so little benefit compare to investing in CON, DEX or any another stat.

My suggestion is making it to boost “Skill” total damage by 1% for every 10 point invested in STR or INT.

For example, if you have 250 STR, all of your physical base skill will have 25% total damage increase.

This should make it’s more rewarding to go Full STR and full INT.

If you have 250 int, including bonus it will become at least 500 int or dmg.

That’s way more than the value a weapon will give.

STR is indeed underpowered, INT is not.

The main reason is that INT has 2 hidden innate that people usually do not see: cannot be evaded and cannot be blocked.

If 1 STR give 0.5 block penetration as well that should be balanced. Physical classes do not have any block penetration (seriously, who invest in SPR?) and thus will lose to stuff like stone skin or Aias

I’m not sure about the math, but you get at least 1.7x more INT/STR due to class rank bonus, and 1 point bonus every 5/4/3/2 points of stat spent depending on how many INT/STR you currently have (this is the main reason to invest fully in 1 stat, but people seems to have forgotten it)

STR is all or nothing, if you crit it’s super powerful, if not it’s “meh”.

#5

You can’t crit if all your stat is STR though, that’s why STR is underpowered. It currently only gives damage + crit damage, but in order to make use of crit damage, you need crit rate, which is not given by STR

If you just crunch the numbers,STR is way stronger than INT.

Problem is ,there’s too much damage mitigation against STR and none against INT

Well, in non-crit situation INT will always be stronger than STR because of the bonus from magic amp. And you cannot have a reliable crit rate when going full STR (except hoplite).

I have a level 150 full STR sword class and my crit rate is like 1-5% :confused:
