Just started a seeker yesterday. I was just curious if a build revolving around crit is reasonable for this class.

Thanks!

    You do need a decent amount of dex in your build in order to equip swords - at 100 you need at least 150 dex to equip the R8 sword for example. Personally I have 160 dex to gain that extra crit percentage. However because the damage multiplier for swords isn't based on dex you will be nerfing your attack by putting any more dex than minimally required

    The crit build is 5str 5dex per 2 lvls. Though I need to retweak this as I want to add in more STR while reducing the amount of critical lost from the readjustment.

    I think I am one of the few on this server that uses a crit build specifically designed to aid with holding aggro.

    Right now I have 24% crit.

    That's awesome. I was thinking about doing something like this. What about Vit though? Should I add some and restat later?

    i capped mine at 200 dex i got atm 30% crit with rank9 it would be 40% which is kind aif you like or play style.I used 3str 2dex every lv and no vit but note this will leave you with nearly no hp untill you get hh90 green gear.Also 40% crit with gof is almost as a sin as rank9 which should kill quite some ppl

    Eh, I figured I'm not yet skilled enough to survive with no Vit yet. I can always restat later right?

    I have only 3 vit. 64 total with gear. I restated around lvl60 when I had about 50 vit and realized I gimped my str having so much vit.

    Well, adding vit would be a budget build and isn't a bad way to go. Going my route, you need a lot of coin. All my gear is refined to +6(to compensate for the fact that I can't afford to 4 socket 90+ gear yet..) It is where all my HP comes from. (6.7k unbuffed, 9k buffed).

    So when you restat, did you use the 5 str 5 dex route? Or did you can Dex at a certain point and pour the rest into Str?
