Everything important has already been said. Knowing how these threads predictably play out when DSM is on a roll trying to napkin math why he is right and everyone else is wrong …. we’re headed for another 50-page’r.

Your contribution to this thread so far has been a parse that you claim is invalid, and silly gifs. Do you think people will believe you if you just keep posting nonsense? The only laughable napkin math in this thread was here:
https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=203 . There is no reason for you to believe that you will get a 16% damage boost on another weapon with +20 STR simply due to a single parse showing a 4 DPS difference.
https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...&postcount=211 - This post that I wrote has two videos with log evidence for the DPS differences between having 20 STR and not having 20 STR. This is not napkin math by any stretch of the imagination, and is more evidence than everybody who has posted in this thread combined.
My data currently shows an average of 1.5 DPS gained with +20 STR. This will probably be lower on lower level characters with worse gear, unless someone can provide evidence otherwise.
Simply saying STR gives you more DPS and shortens the fight is misleading, because it is currently shown that these DPS gains aren't large enough to affect a casual player in a meaningful way, especially a twinked one.
The facts still stand:
1. INT is the hardest stat to cap on an SK, as shown here:
https://wiki.project1999.com/Magelo_Blue:EruditeSKMan
2. STR is the easiest stat to cap in the game, as you can get +235 STR from Avatar + Focus of Spirit + Maniacal Strength.
3. Everybody in this thread agrees starting stats are largely irrelevant, including Troxx.
4. If starting stats are largely irrelevant, you are also admitting the 1.5 DPS or less gained from +20 STR is also largely irrelevant.
The interesting thing is nobody disagrees with the facts above if you look at their posts. It should be trivial to conclude that INT is the right choice, simply due to it providing a benefit for the longest period of time.
