Bossing Damage 30%

Currently on my 130 att nistrock (this is end game for me). I have the potential of +10 att +10 att +6% dex. I'm curious if this would be better then 30% bossing damage on bosses. I currently don't train at all and only boss for exp.

Daum, my bow is only at epic right now. I'm hoping I can get 30% bossing damage within 20 cubes D:

[quote=ZealousLoser]This guys is misinformed.
I'm not super funded, but I made a great end game weapon and just got 30% bossing on it.
the damage I see is the damage I used to do on regular monsters with 6% dex bonus.
What you have to account for, is not only the stats on your bow, but the stats you currently hone.
If all you have (stat bonus wise) are average equips and 30% boss dmg stack, your not going to fair well.
Note, the damage is based on your original damage. Broad sweep, at level 166 with about 30% dex bonus, I hit on average 300k-350k per Ultimate strafe.
On bosses PRE 30% boss damage potential* I hit on average 175k-250k.
Now that I have the boss damage, the damages are reversed. I hit around 300k per US on the bosses I do, (zak, pap, krexel, scar,targ, CWK bosses) and around that on regular monsters.
I noticed about a 7-10k bonus on critical arrows. I spent kinda a good sum of money on this 7-10k...
Frankly if this wasn't an end game weapon that money would have benefited me sooo much more in other places.

Final opinion, Improve other things before that weapon...[/quote]

My range is already around 15k with my bow, so from your post I SHOULD re cube to 30% boss correct? I am done upgrading most everything except for a good glove, and I already have around +90% dex.

130 atk nisrock +20 w.atk & 6% dex is relatively good for a lot of reasons...i noticed that 10 w.atk > 3% attack before i upgraded my equips and such. what level is ur bm? i honestly dunno how u can "train" off bosses all day long since most of them give really bad exp...as of now, i have 2 bows to use. one for training, one for bossing. my engaw is 132 atk 15% dex 6% atk, and my vip bow is 152 atk with 30% boss. the discrepancy for my range is ~ 1.3k difference. my engaw is better than my vip bow on regular monsters while my vip bow is better for bossing. your nisrock is a really really good training bow, i would keep that pot and make another bow for bossing (if you have the funds) since you will notice a significant damage difference when you are using a bow with only 30% bossing damage and nuthing else useful on reg monsters >.>

I would try to get 30% Boss and % Total Damage. And I'm assuming that its 130 att +20 att potential opposed to 110att + 20att?
