    Hi!

    I was wondering how the whole phenomenon of dexless warriors makes sense, I couldnt fint any place to explain it so I'll ask here.

    What I'm stuck on is how it makes any sense to go dexless since people are getting dex gear. What would be the difference to just putting the points in dex and getting strength gear instead?

    The only option i can figure is that its easier to swap out gear when you get higher acc gear and acc from leveling than to do AP reset. Is that it?

    A lot of high level warriors don't bother with dex gear. Once you hit 50 and get zhelm it's not necessary for the most part.

    Several reasons

    1) Maple Warrior only works on base stats, so having it to boost your higher base STR is much better

    2) Warrior add DEX only for Accuracy, and you may get Accuracy from certain items such as Zakum Helmet, hence you don't need that much DEX as long as enough Accuracy to hit mobs

    3) Certain items can only be scrolled with DEX such as helmet for DEX or earrings for DEX (earrings for STR were only added later on, not as common)
    You may also opt for DEX/STR overall, but usually Warriors' endgame armor would be a mix of both (STR Top and DEX bottom)

    Note: Cape, Gloves, Shoes are usually reserved for WA stats

    Lastly, this is a very different comparison with other jobs such as Archer or Thief as they would require secondary stats (STR/DEX) to wear their Bow/Claw/Dagger while Warriors don't need DEX to wear gears (except for Stonetooth, 120 DEX)
