    Daggers require at least 3 dex per level.
    Heavy Armor requires at least 2.5 str per level
    You only get 5 stat points per level

    What this means is that unless you wear lower level dagger, lower level armors or find lots of +str, you won't be able to go HA with daggers. In fact, it's only really possible at endgame, anything before that and you'll be forced to wear lower level armors or daggers.

    And going HA with daggers severely cripples your damage for no real reason. If you want to go HA, might as well go with fists instead of daggers. And if you want to do that from the start, might as well play a BM instead of a sin.
    I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    Totally agree with what Olba said.

    Wearing HA might lessen the physical damage you take, but you'll lose out on a lot of Bloodpaint hp regen, so you don't even get that much more survivability.

    Plus, magic attacks would hurt more than they already do. b:shocked

    Indeed. There is no reason to wear HA. If you get attacked by other players in PvP, you are doing something wrong. Going pure dex LA gives you the maximum amount of damage and crit. Defense is secondary as a sin.
    kaste - BM 90 / SneakyKas - 49
    PsychicKas - 20 / FurryKas - 17
    HealingKas - 14 / KasTheSeeker - 11
    MysticalKas - 5 / CritKas - 1
    NukeKas - 1 / VenomousKas - 1
    God damn recording makes my leveling slow.

    My opinion is if you want to use HA, roll a BM.
    If a BM wants to use LA, they should roll a sin.

    HA for sin is bad idea

    you will have low critical rate and damage.

    Better if you going to made hybred 1str, 1vit, 3 dex and light armor
