Whats the strongest type of Bandits?
Maple story Forums : Bandit, Chief Bandit, Shadower : Talk about the Bandit, Chief Bandit and Shadower classes Thread starter
This is my view...
STR Bandits are weak at start but we catch up later on especially with the khanjars/dragon khanjars and the extra attacks on STR daggers. LUK becomes less compared with W.ATK. Horntail Necklace + Egg covers most STR anyways so low str base (+22 all stats average) as well as Zakum Helmet (+15 all stats average). I've been STR Bandit since start of GMS also in Beta. Been given criticism for being weak and choosing the wrong path as a STR Bandit... With all my Gears at the moment... I think I'm less than 700m funding on my character and I can hit 15k-16k Assaulter with Warrior Elixir only which I will load a picture up later of it after patch finishes. I also need to lower my DEX/STR by a lot since this is one of my Mark of Beta character. I'm planning to get my stats with gears 80 STR 160 DEX although Dragon Khanjar is only 80/150 but just for the 120 timeless STR dagger (hopefully it's true) and saves me more money from purchasing AP reset. Some pic of what I'm using at the moment... link and link This is a picture of me a few years ago when I was a weak STR Bandit... no one wanted to party me So that's my point of view. Anyone got any other views about this? Would Shadowers out damage others at boss killing if GMS changes maxed damage to 200k maxed damage capped? Replies
Like I stated before we are comparing by same amount of meso funding. :P

This is my damage, but I can hit more. Level 1 Maple Warrior so doesn't help much... couldn't get a good screen shot and was in a rush. link
Made a few adjustment with my equips. A luk bandit would generally be stronger. Unless you have HT pend + scrolled a dragon khanjar that totally owns all the available maple shield attacks, then STR would be stronger- just like the shadowers posting at sleepywood with their crazy atk dragon khanjars.

How many LUK bandits you've seen doing 16k+ damage at level 114. :o
I've been wanting to see one and by the way... my DEXless shadower, ChiefEdwin hits 15k with assaulter at level 120 with MW20. It "was" geared... 105 ATK fan, 4/8 LUK PAC, 13 W.ATK SCG, 8/16 W.ATK Maple Shield, 2 W.ATK Facestomper and stuffy ladidada. ed314 said: "How many LUK bandits you've seen doing 16k+ damage at level 114. :o I've been wanting to see one and by the way... my DEXless shadower, ChiefEdwin hits 15k with assaulter at level 120 with MW20.

I really doubt a dexless 120 will hit that low, iam 113 and i hit 14k assulter, ive got mostly all dex equips and a crap dagger. ed314 said: "How many LUK bandits you've seen doing 16k+ damage at level 114. :o I've been wanting to see one and by the way... my DEXless shadower, ChiefEdwin hits 15k with assaulter at level 120 with MW20.

He was doing like 13ks with his assaulter around that lvl. He's a shadower now and when he had lvl 1 BS he did like 12ks with it. xNaglfarx said: " I really doubt a dexless 120 will hit that low, iam 113 and i hit 14k assulter, ive got mostly all dex equips and a crap dagger." Mine did, I don't know why. =/ Check my Shadower up on ranking. Only reason why I started playing Edwinz is because of the damage. There's nothing wrong with high DEX base Bandits when you replace your DEX with LUK equips. StrDitPride said: "In all honesty I've seen in ALL your posts your equips attempted to be shown off and to be honest, it gets on my nerves because you claim you have a 121 GDK yet you're using a 119 attack Kanzir? 21 attack khanjar I can believe, but a 32 attack dragon khanjar? The only screenshot of your equips i have seen is your kanzir and khanjar which frankly are average scrolled. I'm using a 116 GDK and a 19 attack shield, but a 15 att glove ect ect. I have around a 3395 max damage range. I also have 120 dex because I was level 90 when gachapon came out. I was only aware of basil and I didn't use it as a forum. I also notice something else about you, such as what I just quoted, you seem to attempt to belittle other players with your "haha I did better than you because I thought ahead", then contradict yourself when you realize it doesn't matter. When you replace your dex with luk equips. Now on topic: Luk bandits have an edge for all 120 levels. Once 120 arises and shadowers are born, the damage forumula lies the same but the proportions get massive therefore attack becomes more effective than luk. That's also the problem with dexless fan dits. They are good until early 13x then their damage is equallivent to a reg dex. Therefore the best overall is neither. Each have it's elavations however it takes a true 'pro' to realize what decisions you make and how long the lust lasts. In the long run you can always switch over to a str cb, however that doesn't mean they are the best, they are the best finishers which quite frankly not a lot will even get to that point. Also like to add if you are in this class for damage you're bound to fail because from your posts and indirect flaunting threads I can tell it's a big part of your equation." Sigh... let's count on my Bandits... 1. link 2. link (Retired) 3. link (Retired) I wonder if you could show any proof of your stats and stuff. Highly unlikely. PS. I was level 113 since December last year. Since I took a long break from MapleStory. Came back when my holidays just started. No Uni until Feb '09. StrDitPride said: " Obviously you are an ex hacker. You refuse to show me the name of a 15x shadower? The other one had an asura dagger at level 120? No wonder you had your so called equips. No wonder you arent in the sleepywood damage thread, no wonder you aren't even a known 'bandit'. Now I do question your legitimacy. anyway I'll provide the pictures. Give me a sec. link tinypic com/2zh1aap jpg Add the dots and put h t t p:// in front of it." I'm not going to check your link... Not sure if it's safe or not, could be some keylog site... LOL ex-hacker? Haha, well can't blame you... You're in Bera and judge people's reputation by own thoughts? Please note I've wrote (Retired) next to those screen shots which means UNGEARED. So if everyone covers their IGN, they're considered a hacker? Please... think before commenting. Anyways I'm going to go laugh about this. I'm ranked and you call me an ex-hacker. LOL! How amusing is this! Dx Well known? You must be an ex-hacker then. I've never heard of you and for your information I don't use Sleepywood Forum, sorry. Not everyone uses Sleepywood Forums. If you want to judge people for what they do then go apply for a job as God. Seems like you're saying people who uses BasilMarket and not Sleepywood are all ex-hackers. I'm sorry if my gears are better than yours but since I'm nice... I shall provide you with a box of tissue. "Obviously you are an ex hacker." OMG HAHAHAHAHAHA This... should be the post of the day! Thanks for making my day. the 21 atk khanjar isnt good enough to say str daggers are stronger since I've seen enough of 18-20 atk maple shields for the luk dits. The 25+ atk khanjars I've seen at sleepywood however is a good example of good str gear. ed314 said: " This is a picture of me a few years ago when I was a weak STR Bandit... no one wanted to party me " I really dont get it why people want to be partied during GM events. None of the events require party anyways. New Pic: New Range
Who cares? <_<
This is exactly what starts stupid flames. Please don't show off either. I'm not going to check your link... Not sure if it's safe or not, could be some keylog site ...You're joking right? Tinypic.jpg Obviously it's a PICture and it's a JPeG. New Pic: It doesn't always work
I don't see a difference between Luk and Str Bandits. One of them usually has a slightly harder time leveling than the other, but otherwise we're all dagger-wielding maniacal psychopaths at heart :3

Maybe us STR Bandits are a Xonda (car with many horsepower engine, but slow and heavy) and the LUK Bandits a jaguar XJ22 (not very many horsepowers, but great speed), but we're both damn sexy cars! New Blog: Dutch kids on MS annoy me
Once we get all the 3 slots scrollable on our pendants there wont be a difference between str and luk shadower. The Dexless/Str less shadower using a dragon khanjar and a nice dagger is the strongest. In order to be stronger with a Dragon Khanjar then a Maple shield you would have to get 25 atk or better DK thats when its worth getting a total of 75 str. As far as i know the strongest Shadower in gms is a str shadower from khaini with a lvl 150 max damage of 52xx.
