So, what about DEX ?

[EL Truco]

Since there are only 1 or 2 weapons scaling with Dex....
There will be more weapons for Dex build or that stats is just there sitting and doing mostly nothing at all ?

still fairly early, but the jump height from Dex can be very helpful in exploration, navigation and (in rare cases) getting away from enemies. Granted, Int and some clever spell usage can make up for a lot of that, but still, nice to have regardless of build.

Totally agree that the Dex can be used for other things but the main thing was ranged weapons for me....
Would be fun to jump and shoot magic but I think that is not fair that the dev focused on str and int weapons and just 1 for Dex.....

Int weapons?

Ranged weapons, even ones like the twisted staff and candle still scale with dex. Not int.

There's at least 5 ranged weapons: the elfen bow, the crossbow, the twisted staff, the wand of power, and the jailor's candle. There's no such thing as an int weapon, int is ONLY used for spells.

Also the fishing spear. And possibly the beam part of moonlight.

[St. Haborym]

Oh right, and also the throwing knife.

i tested the corrupted dagger with 1str 40dex
same insignificant damage as melee than as distance weapon.

tested lucid blade with same stats, looked to do almost the same damage melee and distance, maybe a very little more with ranged but i guess its because it was charged.

i would guess melee weapon with ranged tool, are scaled str

[Avizard]

there are quite a few ranged weapons in the game, I think even magical looking ones are actually dex scaling, there are also a couple hybrid melee/ranged that say they scale with dex
you can just level both without it being a big issue, I did because I want to see what all the weapons turn into when you oil them

[St. Haborym]

I can confirm that magic ranged weapons scale with dex, cause when I first played this game, I went for an int build, and it did not scale the ranged weapons at all.

Thank you all for your kind information about the weapon dex scaling!
Really helpful !
