Solo DE or stacked(SA or TA or both)? I would say try to do as much dex as you can. STR is fine, if solo ws without SA or TA. DO NOT DO CHR. >_> It really makes little to no difference.

Head : Hecatomb Cap
Neck: Chiv Chain (Will be upgrading to Love Torque as soon as it drops.) WS Gorget - not sure if it beats Love Torque for THF but it's far ahead of Chiv
Earrings: Brutal/Ethereal Replace ethereal with Minuet when active or Pixie if you have it. Something else with ACC if you don't have those, diabolos's etc
Body: Heca unless Dragon is better Idk yet but I am using Heca Body. I'd imagine heca would be the best bet here on anything you need ACC
Hands: Hecatomb Mittens
Rings: Rajas/Blood Ring Thunder ring
Back: Cerberus Mantle Cuchulain's mantle
Waist: Warwolf Belt Virtuoso belt for low ACC situations, otherwise fine
Legs: Enkidu Subligar Heca
Feet: Don't have the Heca yet so I'm rocking the Denali Boots, I think prolly AFv2 feet? Better off with denali for the ACC

Anyways no dicking please, please help me out to improve!

I'm not a THF, but most melee orientated things are pretty simple. Make sure you're landing your hit's first, then pump up the damage. As posted, you didn't state what it is stacked with either. This is just a general set.

With SA and TA think the gear is good or should I upgrade, other then the changes Derock proposed?

Unstacked, it does more than DEX in terms of WSC, the only thing that makes dex win unstacked is the fact that you get 1 acc for every 2 dex, but in acc capped situations, and purely for max DMG possible (unstacked) then CHR > DEX, which is more than "it literally makes no difference"

[nefarious.lover]

Replace Ethreal with Delta.

2 Dex which you should be using over ATK anyway, and 2 CHR for S&G

I'd try Dragon harness if your ACC is ok, um, dragon feet are prolly better than denali, thunder ring, etc.

I said str is fine if unstacked, and not 'literally makes no difference' but makes 'little to no difference'. I'm sure race means something here, but mithra's have craptacular chr to start. So +5 chr when your base is 46 will do little to nothing.

Did you read my post?

[Shamaya]

You wanna stack chr. Also, if you SA+Steal, int.

[nefarious.lover]

Also Koki works better than TH4.


_{No it doesn't. I can't even stand the thought of someone thinking this is remotely serious anyone who thinks a WS affects drop rates is mentally deficient.}

Here comes the dicking around!

When you're not stacking, rather than say that something "really makes little difference", why not advise them to use what provides the best benefit? If acc is capped and you're faced with a decision of DEX + 5 or CHR + 5 *purely hypothetical* and you're not stacking SA, then you'd be foolish to choose the DEX over CHR for that situation. The moment you add SA into the picture or drop below capped acc, DEX's pull shows a little to a lot more promise.

Otherwise: +2 > +1.5

Are you serious? I mean.. honestly. You can't be.

[treelo]

So you're suggesting we all stack CHR instead of DEX for stacked weaponskills?

I'm not sure where anyone suggested that, or even that one should specifically choose CHR over DEX period. I, and another, suggested that on pieces during situations where CHR will provide more benefit *they do exist, though uncommon* choosing DEX over CHR for that situation and piece simply because everyone lolz at THFs wearing any CHR gear is foolish.

I also stated that as soon as you stack SA, all CHR gear that I'm aware of is immediately outclassed by DEX gear for the same slot. For DEs stacked with TA, I'm not sure honestly if there's a situation where a CHR piece would outweigh an AGI piece. I have my doubts *interpreted: I think TADE will have no applicable CHR pieces*, but I can't say for sure.

Apparently reading the thread properly helps you understand what is being said, big surprise there. I retract my earlier comments and return to the popular "Just use Evisceration."

[Banggugyangu]

True, but lacking an X's knife, I can understand the validity of the initial question.

Not when I stood in front of his thief and told him exactly what he needed, at great length. He's only fishing for attention.
