Flyff: STR or DEX Bp? Which is Best?

Equipment choices that maxes hit rates for various builds:

At 60:
1)Full strength, Guardian Knuckle, +8 set, crit rate and minor attack speed awakenings
2)Full strength, Yakadain (CW) Knuckle, +6 set (+4 is close), attack speed awakenings
3)43 dex, Guardian, +6 set, crit rate awakenings
4)43 dex, Yakadain, +3 set, attack speed awakenings

The difference between the cheapest (#4) and the next most expensive (#3) is not that much really. On most servers, it will also save you 300m or more. Full strength is obviously best but is quite expensive.

At 75:
1)Full strength, Historic, +8 set, attack speed awakenings
2)43 dex, Historic, +6 set, attack speed awakenings
3)80 dex, Historic, +4 set, attack speed awakenings

The difference is much more noticable here as the weapon remains the same. It comes down to who has the most strength and attack speed. Also note that you need a +4 set with the 80 dex build at this point to max your hit rate on everything in level range. It will drop below 96% at about 5 levels above with a +3 set. You sacrifice a lot of damage, and still need to put out the money for non-safe upgrades.

If you want more dex than you have, Electric C/B/A cards are the best way to do it. Sure, piercing is expensive, but the cards are the best way to get your dex as they also grant 1% crit each.

Note that someone can be full strength, and use a total of 7 Electric B cards between their Knuckle and Shield (4 & 3, which aren’t too difficult), and still have the 43 dex build with 7% more crit.
