How does dex compare to Wep Att?

So lately ive been thinking, at 200 how does dex scale compared to attack? I want to know which is more beneficial and if l should be aiming for more dex or more attack. An example would be empress overall. Would it be more beneficial to perfect scroll it with overall dex+ws, or would it be better if l aimed for higher att on the overall at the cost of no dex gain. Please list your opinion and if possible math to calculate which is more beneficial. Ty .

If you aren't interested in the empress set you might want to look at top/bottom combinations (lvl 90 stirge pants + lvl 40 top).

if your dex was 1/4th of your attack, then they'd be the same, however, i can guarantee that you have a lot more dex than attack, which is what makes %attack better than %dex.

Hmm well money isnt really an issue for me so l can afford to scroll or play around with m.chaos. I was thinking l would try and land 1 good miracle chaos on an overall and scroll the rest with dex. But yeah according to that formula l should be aiming for more dex/%dex over att. I noticed that l had more range with 27 att 6% vss compared to 38 att vss with no %dex. So yeah % dex ftw! Ty guys

weapon multiplier*(4*dex+str)*(ATT/100) = dmg

You tell me.

Empress scrolling really depends on your dex and att. Assuming you have high %dex, its usually better to scroll for dex. Chaosing only works well if you are very lucky or have a lot of money to burn.
