I've been wondering this for a bit. Not counting Excalibur (Gotta love that int and luk bonus, but I'm not planning on questing for it anytime soon), and Mjolnir (God item, +40 dex), what are some of the better options for Brewing and forging weapons?
Mjol...
Excali...
=_=
Then yes, make a Elemental Sword of Triple Dexterity ([Drops][Drops][Drops]).
Diablous armor with +3 dex/luk enchant is probably the best armor
Glorious production rings +2 all stats are cheap substitutes for those that don't have zerom Orleans gloves
Irish topper and clover in mouth gives the best luk combo for headgears I think
If you are rich zealotus shield and +9/+10 green maiden garment otherwise Morrigans manteau will do
Besides gears there are also tricks you can do to get more stats for brewing or forging. Quag/curse and marionette or gospel buffs.
Another pretty decent budget friendly thing you can make is a Zealotus/Injustice carded combo thing.
So you can do an Ele Sword with Injustice/Drops/Drops or Injustice/Lunatic/Lunatic and then card a regular guard with Zealotus. Injustice gives +3 luck when combed with Zealotus. Not too shabby, and actually will beat the Fortune Sword in terms of stat giving. ;3
Edit: Actually not sure if Zealotus is really cheap on the server anymore, so maybe not so budget friendly? Honestly don't keep up with prices too well so I couldn't tell yah XD...
Just check my shops to find out about zealotus cards
If I recall correctly, dex has twice as much effect on brewing/forging than luck... so +3 Dex Keris with an Injustice with zherl guard or something?
Nope, DEX/LUK value the same, it is INT that values half the entity of the other two
You can obtain the same bonus from 50 dex, or 50 luk, or 100 int, for example
eidt: for brewing; for forging, INT is useless
Since Roger says luk/dex is the same a +3Dex/Luk Keris with an Injustice would also be a viable option with the Zherl Guard. :3
Quick question though. If I'm using Boxes of gloom for Improve Concentration, Is that boost off of the base stats? Or are the bonuses from my job and gears counted too?
Attention Concentrate or how its called exactly now affects the base stats only. (or it will loop itself and make your dex infinite XD)
