Team Dex Vs Team Str ( Trash talking, discussion, roasting each other, math magician war ) Aka Debate STR Vs DEX

there is other more beneficial glove out there, no?

so you’re forever stucked with Penetration Glove, yes?

Str gives more value to swordman while swordman gain no bonus from Dex, no?

the debate Str (higher bonus +block penetration) vs Dex (evasion/critical/accuracy)

well, choose your play style.
Get equipment/gem to fix your stat weaknesses

there is no simple right or wrong answer.

I only said if you need block penetration, you can put that glove
For me, i use vubbe
Different situation need different approach
Dont be so stuck with 1 gear

You still don’t get it? any gap from STR (block pen, p.atk, c.atk) can be covered by gears.

but Gap from DEX (EVA, Crit rate, Accuracy) can’t be covered easily. what’s more, the increasing level will just make gears to Cover up for Crit %.

(gears can’t salvage that much EVA from DEX)
(Crit rate with increasing level is your enemy)
(accuracy? a 260 Doppel still misses at PvP, a definite NO for your argument)

you want proof? ask your TOP SWORDSMAN who says ‘YELLOW DAMAGE EVERYWHERE’, but then again his vids shows pathetic rates of landing crits.

actually im getting tired to explain thing into the simplest way i can. but for the sake of 1000post. i’m still here

/1000posts

Edit 1: just pray Shield Crasher won’t be release anymore. it’l break your STR’s most precious Block pen value.

/20post cant be empty

i get it, but dont go on everywhere

“OH MY GOD DEX IS THE ONLY WAY TO PLAY SWORDMAN”

this is my only cringe


STR wont make swordman useless
Dex wont make you ONEPUNCHMAN-OP

so choose your stat/eq depending what role your playing for your team.

high Dex is always the solo build.
hope your 2000hours of TOS consist of 90% solo.

Actually that goes the same for crit gear. If they do release 130+ crit gear.

I don’t see the over whelming of in need of dex. It make’s you attain rather over killing max crit rate to the point even 200 crit resist mobs will get 100% crit on @_@…

Either way the game is in favor of dex currently but that’s doesn’t say anything about the future in fair share. Since it can go either way as long as IMC tries to be funny.

well for me that sounds like akisera.

what really was the issue here is how he trashed dex players. me personally I have no problem against him, even consulted for him on some advice but after trying out his style it didn’t work out for me. he attacked people for playing their own way and claims that his way is the only way.

heck it triggered me when he attacked dex swordsman. but there were already enough people answering so I just sat back and just read the comments here. lul

Lol so hard explaining to this guy
Well do what you like, i just give a suggestion

  • If they concern on block penetration because for low STR and high DEX, you can use the glove to compensate low block pen

  • But for high STR and low DEX , you will have a hard time getting crit rate

Show me how to compensate low crit rate with gear

Then may be i will start investing in str again
FYI, my stat dont go full DEX

they’ll say level 10 green gem, which is close to impossible to have one atm, let alone getting 2-3 of those. and imagine having to remove those for new weapon. millions of exp down the drain lul

i think telsai yugimura have 3 lv10 green gem on +10catacomb pike

lost the screenshots along with my account mute and cata thread


so what if you’re subpar with high str and lack of cri equipment…

this is why people cry for reset, reset for every fcuking patch…

rank8 favor dex, OMG, LETS ALL JUMP ON THE DEX-HYPE

rank9 favor ??, OMG, MY CHARACTER RUINED! RESET PLS! QQ

u get what i mean?

It actually depend on class by class basis. For example hoplite 3 have up to 150-190 crit rate free finestra. divine might + zega swap + gem

So it can reduce the amount of capped dex and throw the rest in STR for maximise damage. So either way you can’t really go wrong with balance.

level 8 gems *3(156) + sissel(74)+ max peta(14) + lolo (25+46) + 8 ellaganos(80). It’s easy getting to lv7 gems these day honestly.

can you share how to reach *10 gem ?
coz getting *7 is already hard
if investing in dex easier than getting 3pcs *7 green gem + 2pcs sissel + 3pcs HC1/2/3 crit rate
then i’ll chose the easy path

You can get level 1-3 abrasive that give shiet loads of whooping exp from evac pendulum

You can get up to lv2 abrasive(15K) or more on uphill. TBL gives level 2 as well every 3 day? or was it 4.

5 party quest daily

10k dpk gem. (7k exp)

i dont know, im not yugimura, maybe he subscribed hookx64

maybe you need to grind 16hours for 30days?

people enjoy the result of whatever build they worked for

Str or Dex, it works either way.

Just Dex is more solo friendly.

wow really? I only saw some guy here at the swordsman forum (I think he was Hop-Cor) who got a level 9 green gem. I don’t wanna make assumptions but that’s ALOT of materials. either super rich or playing tos 24/7


can’t speak for other people but I myself prefer Dex no matter how fcuked I would be. just have to find a way to make myself viable enough to not be a burden on group content.

right now I’m doing high dex (high, not full) doppel with no dov. I like it better.

all these talk about Str vs Dex just because Rank8 is coming out…

its dejavu again when everyone yelling No Pelt Swash Swordman = Trash during early days

i casually farmed evac only for 14 days and i got 2x level 7 gems. Evac give you levle 3 gems and pendulum give you lv 1 - 3 abrasive (3k, 15.5k, 31k) and rng hates you, you get stamina pills lel.

Just 20 minute a day. If you added in what i mention level 10 gems now in 1 mth and 2 of it, isn’t a myth.

cool , nice info
now i have purpose in playing again

FYI, uphill defense still not implemented in my country, but may be i’ll try evac pendulum, and for TBL swordman suck for this part

blame IMC coz my main account haukinyau muted…
now i lost all motivation to contribute any guide/build.
(that screenshots was in my cata thread, i think posted by nate or someone)

im just here to prevent disaster from happening

everything is viable if you build for specific purposes.
all-rounder is always below average but most fun to play

(just dont go INT swordman, coz IMC havent release INT skill for swordman yet…)
(i tried 50spr swordman, pretty okay i’d say, 3k sp pool with cloths mastery 4piece, huehuehue)
