Blademaster Axe / Fist user

kumaster

Hello I am level 71 and really not so sure how much vit i need or dex to use fists and axe. Is it better to have the vit 50 and the rest of my levels 3str and 2 dex? or is it better to just have a low as 30 vit and 5.

Here is my stats below, is it okay? or i should change. Axe is my main by the way, but i still want to use fists, i plan to go demon for stun lock, and fist seems pretty cool for demon i heard. http://pwcalc.ru/pwi/?char=5078996ce6063065bb:b:victory. Thank you, just curious to heard what other blademasters say.

well doing 3 str 2 dex makes you hit a bit higher. But if you restat str to weapon req to vit, you will hit a bit less but tanking much much better.

Sorry what do you mean str to weapon requirement I am prety sure I did 3 str every level from level 1. I am confused??

In order to have the highest level of weapon for both axe and fist, you need 3 str and 2 dex for each level, meaning no vit

What they're saying is you should have base vit of 5 because 3 str per level required for axes and 2 dex per level required for fists leaves no stats left over for vitality, but the damage boost you recieve from having that much strength and dexterity allows you to hold aggro easier. Tanking bosses of the same level, should be relatively easy with decent gear. Also, if you have a sin in the squad the leech from bloodpaint gives more survivability with a damage build than a vit build.

So, level 70 BMs should have around 215 str and 145 dex, 3-15 vitality, 3-5 magic.

btw, your pwcalc link goes to a level 1 unchanged bm for me because your bear smiley code was added to the hyperlink

My recommendations? Restat out of vitality soon, and place it into dex. Drop vit as low as you're comfortable with. Maybe stop leveling and grind the coin for a Tauran's Chieftain Cape, the mdef really helps. Surf AH for some cheap 3 star boots, and time to upgrade your attendance ring.

what should you str be for end game axes?

Highestelf - Heavens Tear

Go to forges in archosaur and determine the axes YOU want at endgame!! The STR you should have for end game axes is Whatever the STR requirement for the axes you choose.

Be careful on Axe selection, not only do you want to choose appropriately, based on your planned endgame build - you will also need to keep in mind the build process for those axes.

It really sucks, discovering after the fact, that you need to craft different axes from the beginning.
