I've been wondering what dye is more effective on 1 othell rogue? Some say STR because well..obviously crits are more powerful as are normal attacks/skills. But the bonus of STR is that a skill may reset instantly so most of them get STR for that sole purpose.
Then comes the other side : DEX. Some say the DEX will increase your chances to half kill /lethal (the latter beeing more rare but still). Even through I do not see why would that be true(there is no place where is says or points that) maybe you guys can come with an explanation. Also DEX if I'm not mistaken gives more crits ,atk speed and some other stuff.
Which of what I said in this post is true and which is better? Opinions pls.:cool:
Thank you for your time!

dex hasn't affected half kill / lethal rate / skill success since about c4 if i remember correctly. I thought the whole "elves lethal more" argument was because of their SKILLS ie focus death and that might mortal thing,
When you're an othell rogue you will max crit rate and atk speed anyway, and since this chronicle dex doesn't affect speed anymore.
THIS chronicle STR is definitely the better choice because you increase the damage of your stabs whilst still being maxed out on crit rate / atk speed
NEXT chronicle dex is getting a boost - it's affecting run speed again and is increasing the chance to crit on your skills so who knows having +15dex might be better than a 10% increase on stab damage because if you're critting like a **** your damage will be almost double
Hey, I'm a lvl 87 Othell Rogue and atm i have +12 STR -9 Dex total in dyes. My current STR is at 121 (I have the Harnak +1 str +1 con hat). My Dex is at 48 or so. I can tell you from experience, I lost about 100-130 atk speed and about 5 evasion, but the amount of half-kills/lethals I make is simply put, ridiculous. I half-kill and lethal strike mobs ALOT more often than before the dyes and my damage is EXTREMELY better than before my dyes. My skill reset/double procs very often as well, there was a time when i was able to use Chain Blow 10 times in a row :P. It is very noticeable to for me to take STR dyes, and it was about 30kk total for all of my dyes, very good for my budget. Now, once i can afford dyes that don't decrease my dex, sure I'll take them, but until then, these +4 STR -3 DEX is definitly worth it.
Atm, in this chronicle, dex is somewhat useless, i'm not saying completely, but for Rogues atm, STR is the best :)
This has nothing to do with STR... only level or skills like assassins reflex
But in the end you agree that STR is for daggers and not DEX(on this chronicle)?
ofc +15 DEX when ppl have 80+ DEX will be like OMFG I skill crit 3x more than guys without +15 DEX... I'm sure.
critical rate is already at max so no diference here
Kinda obvious go for STR unless you want some extra evasion/accuracy that are gonna make not that much of a diference
+STR increases critical power, skill reuse chance, among others, so go STR is the way to go

Crit rate has nothing to do with skill crit rate... i think he was referring to my post about the tauti update where skill crit rate and run speed are getting put onto the dex stat, but even then it sounded like he was being sarcastic
Yes it does. It's everything to do with STR and has been since before gracia even. No it did not change in god.
half kills and lethals have never had anything to do with STR..
