Strength or Defense?


TheAncient

Recommended Posts

I am going for one of the following stat combinations:

 

 

 

Setup 1)

 

97 Att

 

92 Str

 

97 Def

 

99 Hits

 

60 Pray

 

117 Cb

 

 

 

Setup 2)

 

97 Att

 

97 Str

 

90 Def

 

99 Hits

 

60 Pray

 

117 Cb

 

 

 

Note that the only difference between the two is that the first setup has 92 Str/97 Def and the second one has 97 Str/90 Def. Which one would you suggest and why?

 

 

 

Here is my opinion:

 

1) High def, high attack are good for high-level battles, i.e. PvP and combat versus level 200+ monsters. The -5 strength compared to setup 2 can be made up by buying a zerker ring.

 

2) The -7 defense compared to setup 1 can be made up using pots, or better armor.

why not just get flat 97's? or even 99's?

 

 

 

1) I might go into staking, so I need to keep my level as low as possible.

 

2) I am getting an untrimmed 99 hits and intend to keep the cape untrimmed.

I agree do def. I too am tired of people saying that defense is useless. This is an example of why I find it not to be. I keep my lvls even right now 66 in all except attck lvld to 67 yesterday. I was in warrior guild gettin tokens killing mith armors. Another lvl 81 came into the guild and was killin mith armors. He had a whip so his attakc was 70 and he said his def was somewhere around i think it was 50ish or so not sure. and his str was high. I was killing mith armors without getting hit really at all. He was getting hit for tens, and lower with almost every attack the armor made. I got 1k tokens without gettin gmore lobbies he had to go five or six times to refill. He then called me a noob because I didn't have a whip at my lvl.

in my opinion its even.

 

 

 

do you want to not get hit much, and kill someone at a regular speed, then choose the def combination.

 

 

 

or do you wanna hit high, and good, but take hits yourself, choose the str combo.

 

 

 

personally, id choose strength, but thats because i like seeing big numbers :P

You're gonna get 99 att, str or def eventually. Even if it takes a loong time.

well 7 lvl dif. between str and atk/def wont make a very effective staker, u shud have started training atk/def only earlier if u wanted to stake, so id just go with even lvls for all 3 stats now..

 

stakers usually have like 10 min. lvl difference to consistently win, and pkers shud have like 30+ lower def lvls about
