when are stats more important than att?

Well, for physical attackers, it really does depend. Wep. attack adds more damage, but STR adds HP, DEX adds avoidability and accuracy, and LUK adds... hands. Although if you're going ___-less, Wep. Attack>Stats all the time, as you're going for damage anyway.

If you're a magician, 1 INT=1 Magic Attack, however INT adds magic defense as well. Therefore, INT>Magic Attack.

STR adds HP? Since when?
DEX adds less avoid than LUK does (IIRC DEX adds hands too).

As for INT, it might also be worth mentioning that every 10 INT adds 1 MP, so that is another reason why it is better than Magic Attack.

I'm probably thinking warcraft III for the STR. Anyway, wouldn't that make sense if INT adds MP then STR adds HP?

I'm probably more ignorant than I want to be on this subject.

Well I can see why people would make that mistake. Maple Story doesn't make sense most of the time.

You have a very valid point there.

STR does not add MP. A bunch of islanders who went Pure STR, Hybrid, and Pure DEX have compared their HP/MP levels. The only difference is that the Pure DEX have a bit more MP (it was believed that STR reduced your normal MP gain by just a bit; go figure).


Besides, warriors would have even MORE HP if that was the case, and I highly doubt bowmen would have such a hard time with HP. :X
