i think for thief,luk increase max dmg,dex increase mini dmg..

shinta SG

for warriors, thieves n archers...

i'm archer ar... so dex bring up the max? or max n min? wat about other jobs?

yeowenqi SG

there are two types of attributes that affects damage - i call them the major and the minor.

regular attacks
major - str
minor - dex

major stat affects max damage more than minor stat, but minor stat affects min damage more than major

for regular weapons, that is to say, normal "poking", str affects the max damage most, dex affects a little. however, dex affects min damage more than str. this applies to warriors since they all use regular attacks, as well as all other classes (magician attacking with mace/wand/staff, bowman swinging bow/xbow, sin poking enemies with claw), but warriors with lvl 19 mastery will find that str affects min damage more than dex.

thief attacks
major - luk
minor - dex, str

for throwing stars and daggers' stabs, replace the "str" of regular attacks with "luk", and "dex" with "dex and str"

bowmen arrow shootings
major - dex
minor - str

opposite of regular attacks! swap the places of "dex" and "str" in regular attacks.

magicians' spells
major - int
minor - luk

this is a special case - according to hidden-street.net, int affects max spell damage more than luk for both max and min damage, regardless of mastery lvl. but there are reports that spell damage in hidden-street is not accurate.

for more information, try out the damage calculator in hidden-street.net

Confused *scratch head*

so long u put ur AP in the right place can le, dun add to MP like me Laughing

yeowenqi SG

something else

1 pt of luk increases avoidability and accuracy by 0.5
1 pt of dex increases avoidability by 0.25 and accuracy by 0.5
i'm not sure about hands, since they're currently useless i've heard.

this means that the class with the best accuracy are thieves, followed by archers, warriors, and lastly, magicians (they don't need accuracy anyway). as for avoidability, the thieves win again, followed by archers, magicians, and warriors.

thieves - 3 luk 2 dex per lvl before lvl 40, total of 2 avoidabiliy and 2.5 accuracy
thieves - 4 luk 1 dex per lvl after lvl 40, total of 2.25 avoidability and 2.5 accuracy
warriors - 3 str 2 dex per lvl (not sure until lvl what), means 0.5 avoidability and 1 accuracy
warriors - 4 str 1 dex per lvl after a certain lvl (is it 50?), 0.25 avoidability and 0.5 accuracy
bowmen - 3 dex 2 str per lvl, 2.5 accuracy and 0.75 avoidability
magicians - 4 int 1 luk per lvl, 0.5 accuracy and 0.5 avoidability

i got this information some time ago, and i find it quite accurate, though not 100%.

meltz SG

alexkusu SG

i think shinta nice nick eh..

yeowenqi SG

k la i make it more simple

each job has two stats that affect their damage (three for thieves), i call them minor stat and major stat. major stats affects max damage more than minor stat, and minor stat affects minimum damage more than major damage.

do remember that mastery lvl actually makes major stat affects min damage more, so with maxed mastery, major stat affects min damage more than minor stats. this applies to all jobs except magicians

just understand these two paragraphs can le. i've included the major and minor stats for each job before this

120 accuracy is just about what you need to hit all mobs up to lv 90 up to 99% of the time. So essentially, if you are high level and have your stuff scrolled to desired accuracy, you can hit most of the time.

Part 1 what affect amount of accuracy???

1 DEX = 0.8 accuracy and 1 LUK = 0.5 accuracy, so..

Accuracy = (DEX* 0. Cool + (LUK* 0.5) + accuracy from mastery and equipment

Example, you have 80 dex, 4 luk and 20 mastery (20 accuracy)
your accuracy will be (80*0. Cool +(luk*0.5)+20 = 64+2+20 = 86 accuracy + accuracy your equips give

Part 2 how to know how many accuracy you need

So how much accuracy u need (not dex pls)? Please take note that in order to train efficiently u must hit 100% of the time (no misses).

100% hit accuracy needed = (55+2*lvl difference)*mob avoid/15

Lvl difference is how many lvl you are below the monster.

Example, Taurospear is lv 75, you are lvl 70, then lvl diff = 75-70 = 5
Example, Taurospear is lv 75, you are lvl 75, then lvl diff = 75-75 = 0
If your lvl is higher than the monster, than the lvl diff is ZERO.
