Dex Builds

True, good solutions.

If they get too close and you try to grab, they can simply /me dodge again which has been seen

So this is a frequent issue I usually find myself that we run into. Keep this discussion going- I will be looking towards a solution. This thread thus' far had great ideas in it.

The point of my character is that he doesn't hold back in any kind of fight even if it is just a spar making sparring with him a possibly fatal encounter with people who previously sparred him come close to dying or being very seriously injured. Also, my point about dex is the fact that people use it to justify dodging everything and to me in that fight it appeared as if Ayu was doing the same. My mistake if I misunderstood what she was relying on but I have seen plenty other chars using pure dex as an excuse to dodge basically every attack.

EDIT: There was also a point where I fought a dex build, not Ayu since I understand she would have the strength to do so, where they blocked every attack since they had the dex to but had not strength but still said they could block every attack regardless basically. Although this stopped being effective when I disarmed them my point is the fact that people are substituting dex for other stats, like str, during blocks thinking all they would need is dex to do so or use dex to say they roll off an attack or move in a way the completely dissipates the force of the attack even if they put nothing in res. Then also the fact that dex builds don't actually take endurance into account so act as if they have infinite stamina doing all these draining moves making going into res and end pointless since dex builds act as if they have infinite endurance or as if dex will give them the ability to nullify every attack. Not all dex builds are like this, some, like Ayu and Yorke, know how to work but still have occasional slip ups in my opinion, yet most dex builds are like this as they are either people who want to play warriors but feel the need to go into dex or they have no chance of hitting targets yet still play as a standard tank or warrior or new players who see what others are going into mainly and follow the meta.

It’s pretty true. You’ve stacked ONLY strength and dex and now you’re the strongest character on the server. It tells

I wouldn’t suggest making magic the end-all because it should definitely be hard to learn, and strong once you obtain everything from it. Fatigue needs to be the decider for all these heavy hitting guys who seem almost like glass jaws. Big weapons take big amounts of stamina in a swing, and it’s not really shown.
