Dexterity is trash

[kreeper_green]

Why use dex weapons when you have straight swords that deal way more damage and almost have the same speed. Starting as a dex build is a very bad idea. On low level you will deal like 26 damage per hit wich is less than fists. Am i doing something wrong or dex is viable only at meta SL with +10?

dex is trash.
And if you use it you're trash.

How hard do you need the game to be to basically deal zero damage by equipping a dex weapon?

It should never have been a part of the game, and it is way too hard to be viable at low sl. Way too hard. Anything that has to multihit to do any damage is basically a non-option.

whether you level dex or not IS NOT IN YOUR CONTROL.

Why?

Because you can't control the balance team. Anyone who thinks they can is just wrong. You can't make decisions for people, you can't force someone to make a decision with any guarantee, and so you can't guarantee you'll make them do stuff. Which means every time you attack with a dex build, you risk getting cheesed while mobs just annihilate you.

It is this simple fact that makes dex so broken, and people who don't get that are full mongo.

YOU CAN'T MAKE A DECISION FOR ANOTHER PERSON. FACT.
WHICH MEANS YOU WON'T BE DEALING ANY DAMAGE NO MATTER HOW "TRYHARD" YOU THINK YOU ARE. AND SO WETHER OR NOT YOU LEVEL DEX IS OUT OF YOUR HANDS.

What does this mean? It means it is a flawed stat, and it turns on extra hardmode for anyone who uses it. It is essentially a broken stat that has been allowed within the rules by the very nature of it's design.

Do you not meet weapon requirements?

Most people who invest in Dex are trash any way

Thank you for this. That was a funny read.

pretty sure when you only look at physical builds the two best straight swords lks and gotthards are considered dex weapons, so your first sentence doesnt even make sense.

26 damage is impossible to do....unless you havent met the stat requirements for the weapon, ive never seen even a strait sword do that much damage, even the broken strait sword does more

How is Dex trash? seriously? some weapons get S tier and A tier with sharp refinement while with strength they get C or B. Relax your hate. Maybe you get ♥♥♥♥ on alot by dex users....

[συγκροτημα]

Dex is perfectly useable, pvp and pve. just need the right weapons and need sharp gems.

Simple don't use a ss or any dex weapon or you're a ♥♥♥♥♥, What you gotta do is go all the way into strength.

Lothric Knight Sword is a DEX weapon that performs better with Sharp infusion than Heavy or Refined... DEX isn't limited to thousand forded nippon steeru and curved swords.

What's your SL? If you 120 or less than you are a glass canon, that's cool. If your above then who cares? There's no limit above that so o.p could have 99 str and Dex?

my main character is SL502 my pvp characters are 120 each one is str and the other is dex, by far dex is my favorite case i can ♥♥♥♥ around with all sorts of weapons but on my main character i just use chaos or sharp.
