But then you can't scroll it all the way. Pirate = 120 dex, Reverse = 160 dex.

+6 70% is the most you can scroll the bottom for dex (ending up 25 and 15), and there are only dex scrolls and jump scrolls for pants. So the other 1-3 slots aren't giving you anything.

The question wasn't which gives the most logical dex. The arguement is which gives the most dex.

Let's not rule out some lvl 130 gear eventually coming out. Then the extra dex would be worth it.

Unless you want to strictly be a str dit the entire duration, it's a better idea to convert at higher levels. Str dits only become stronger when a dragon Khanjar or normal Khanjar is involved, which is at lvl 70/ 120. I'm currently a luk dit, but I'm planning on converting around 8x.

Thanks Glitter

Well, I'm thinking 5 from a MoN, 5 from a black belt, 15 from a zhelm, and then maybe 10-15 from other equips that don't require str, so 40-45 str. If you're funded you can go less.

You mean 80 and 120. And actually, a Fan Dit would be better than going STRless until 80. If you can get a Zakum Helmet and other cheap STR gear, just add a few AP into STR then you can equip a fan, which would give you a very nice attack boost. This is what I'm doing on JMS. I'm DEXless and STRless right now and am working toward a 95 attack Fan that I just got. DEX will be added in after 75 or so.

Oh, right. For some reason I always think Khanjars are 70.

Ok so... I'm looking for an 'unfunded Bandit's guide' for 3rd job. What would be a good build? Every guide I've found so far involves maxing ME first and is considered "only for the very/extremely funded." I only have 54m in pure mesos right now, so maxing ME first for me would be a complete disaster. I was thinking of max BoT and MG first. Any other suggestions?

Are you STR?

@above: what the Pineapple does being str have to do with sp builds?

And fear not, as I have provided various building options in my own guidehttp://www.basilmarket.com/forum/1126427/0//The_Chief_Bandit_Guide.html#

I hate to break it to you, but that guide has got a Str bandit's pros totally wrong. Per example: it's been proven on lolbasil like a year ago that a Str bandit's damage was more stable, but not by any significant amount. It can be totally ignored. Yet this guide will tell you that the damage is more stable and list it as a pro (which is a very large overstatement).

And it's training section is very outdated.

Not trying to be a mean person over here or attacking you if you feel like I'm doing just that.

As far as I know it's either windraiders or Dangerous sea gorge I for hermits your level. You could switch between Lower Ascent and Tornado Corridor for a change of pace when training at Windraiders.
