What's next in jobs?

Ooh, okay. :O I just always thought that because STR = more power, plus they need the STR to hold heavier daggers which are more powerful but slower.

I think that was the idea of STR bandits, because in general STR daggers have slightly higher attack, it's just not enough to make up for the LUK they lose by putting into STR.
Just another one of those ideas they started doing but it never really worked out. The Dagger-shields like Khanjar were probably introduced into the game to restore this balance.
