Do I have enough attack to start caring about str?

Hey fellow pallys!

I recently got thinking about the miracle time this weekend. While I was thinking about it I was wondering if I actually have enough attack to bother investing in str%, or if I should continue to put it off until I get some more attack.

Currently (if I didn't miss anything) I should be sitting at 365 attack without divine shield up. Knowing that, should I continue focusing on piling on more attack, or will I notice a [b]sizable[/b] boost in range if I actually have some str%? (currently have 23% str haha)

Pot is short for potential, on top of the 3 regular lines it's possible to get 2 lines of bonus potential, which can have +atk stats.

[quote=didimanga]how in da hull would you get more than 350 att o_o
you have 3 TYRANT set or sumthing? o.O

are you using onyx apple?
its 365 atk with buff or not buff at all?

im telling you, you have more attack than a GM xD just go and hit dat 250% STR on your equips

i would appreaciate if someone answer me the first 3 questions, or even 1 of them[/quote]

It's possible to get over 1k total atk, I'm currently a little over 800 total. With Jett link, BoF, and alliance buff, and some other links, you can get near 100 atk from your beginner tab alone. Perfect weapons are 250-300 atk, every equip with pot can easily get +10 atk bonus pot, that's another 150ish.

As for the topic, cubing would be good, try for 200% if possible for a nice 2:1 atk to str ratio. This may not give as big a boost as attack, but should be the easier upgrade at this point.

If you want to know how much str will get for you I can give you my numbers. I have similiar attack to you but with a lot more % str. My clean range is 53616-56810. I am sitting at 167% str. I think you have around 30 atk on me but I hope this helps.

@Frostilyte : your str and dex actually makes very little difference to the numbers in the chart

@FreeWii4Mii - Thanks for the chart. Looks like I could go for str%.

Also, 13xx str (without any %) and 3xx dex are the actual numbers, but I assume that doesn't make too large of a difference on the chart, right? o.o

@didimanga - I'd rather not list all of the specifics, but:
- Chaos'd empress gear
- using 20%'s and shielding scrolls on my weapon
- Getting lucky on ad pot once or twice
- +30 atk from a level 120 cygnus (lol this one is sweet to get and not too tough either)
- +27 atk inner ability
- full empress set

No. There's no onyx apples in that number.
That's clean attack. Divine shield is the only skill paladins have that give them attack and its +30 (and was not included in that total mind you)

Haha I wish. I actually am not that strong thanks to my lack of str% at this current time

@Wudya - Yeah I kinda figured I was getting to the point where my attack out weighted my str by a reasonable amount and as such I'd be forced to start getting some str% in order to continue getting stronger. Thanks for the input
