is agility the stupidest stat?

[Seltius]

Agility on live was an important stat for monks early on until gear got to where the stats/effects outweighed the loss of ac on higher weight. I still see a difference in PVE on blue and red when I have higher weight. I know it doesn't have the same effect that it should because iirc AC isn't calculated right here. And here if your over weight by even a little on a monk your agility starts to drop and its a lot more than 1ac to 9agi conversion for monks.

Thing with a monk is you have to look at stats+effect(if there is one) vs Wt(loss of agi/ac) Things like a Fungi far outweigh the loss of ac due to effect.

Other than that I have to say Charisma is worthless for melee unless your buying/selling.


Each class has at least 1 stat that isn't nearly as useful or is useless for them. /shrug

loved that game.

traditionally, AC generated by AGI is avoidance AC. AC generated by worn AC is mitigation AC. Both play a part in damage calcs, but iirc mitigation is a lot more significant.

I dunno, I valued agi a lot on my rogue...more so than dex - I'd rather have avoidance than mitigation on a rogue.

Are you talking about live? On live (at somepoint in the time line, and it certainly wasn't well known about) Agi had a double effect for rogues over level 30, adding mitigation AC if you had enough of it. Perhaps this influenced your decision.

So what's so great about dex? Does it do anything aside from improve your proc rate? I hear a lot about how "agi sucks" (and I don't know how borked EQEMU is, but http://www.monkly-business.net/forum...hlight=Agility seems to say it does *something*) ... but why would anyone without a proc'ing weapon want dex above agi?

you're right, if you dont use proccing weapons you probably don't want dex. consider though end-game you're trying to keep avatar up on yourself with a primal, so a good dex foundation will help.

AGI after it hits 76/75 is completely worthless. If it was taking AGI over any other stat, look at your AGI if its over 75/76 take something else.

On this server AC is useless for Cloth, Leather, Chain, Monks, and plates (besides warriors who are level 60) The server adjusted its stats so that AC heavy people twinking up level 1's cant power through 10s 20s 30s 40s 50s. Ive noticed this from the time I made my ranger, and got a fungi, Fungi did more then all the rest of my gear outside my weapons to level up.

Dont buy ac items, if your leveling monk / chain / plate, get Fungi, 2 good weapons, and youll level as fast as if you spent 500k on top of the line items. Just buy cheap HP Items, a boat load of HPs will keep you alive, the fungi will regen it back, you can solo until 30s to 40s such a joke.

If by stupidest stat you mean least useful stat I would have to say endurance is less useful than agility.
