so im a lvl 30 axe user, my stats are 93 strength - 43 vitality - 24 dex. ive decided i want to change my build to use axes and fists, but im really far behind on the dex requirements for the latest fist. i cant get gold right now, so what would be the best build to catch up to the latest fist requirements?

    What your looking is the Axe / Fist build (or All-weapons BM): (2 Levels) - 6 Str , 4 Dex

    In other words, you are not able to use the "latest" Fists since you added many points into Vitality and you can't "catch up" with both Fists and Axes.

    You have two solutions,

    - Start over (a new BM character)

    - Or buy a reset note in later levels.

    Vitality is useful for PvE.

    I reset at 35, Just buy a 50 point reset scroll and have at it. Add two points into vitality though. 5 is the base but for some reasons when I reset it reset it to 5.

    You can also doing 5 DEX per level from now until your DEX is (your level)*2+3. Until then, you'll be using lower grade fists. After you reach that point, you'll be able to use fists your level but you'll be behind on axes, but that's ok. Having the current level fists is more important than having current level axes. Later on in game, you'll get enough points from gears so even with 43 VIT, you'll still be able to wear both weapon of the same level, but I'm not sure if you will get that many points before gears in the 90's. So for later levels, you can either choose to use axes that's lower (as long as you have enough STR for calas in the early 70s), or reset it then when you have more money.

    I went through something similar at your lvl. I had 50vit and minimum str-dext requirements, and I decided that, especially when you take into account the faster sparking, I could do INCREDIBLY much more damage even with fists 10 lvls lower than me, as opposed to my axes. I freaked out. "I'm a broke college student, I can't afford a reset scroll!" But it's ok! With 50 vit, you can still get the minimum rec for endgame fists and heavy armor, and the stats from the armor help with the str problem. Also, you can get tomes to help with stats.

    With 50 vit, you can get back on track for fists and axes by lvl 80 with TT80 green armor and ornaments and TT80 fists, and the lvl 79 mold hammer with Gloom [or you COULD use the lvl70 sac-strike Calamities, but for pve, I find that to be detrimental in most cases, and gloom to be a much better add].

    All is not lost, just stat 5 dext every lvl for a while till you catch up.
