Would it be as good as Low DEX, no DEX with DEX equips, and a normal DEX assassin?
This is a highly subjective question with no real solid answer. Any of the above can have ridiculous luck with scrolling and beat you for however much money you spend on gear - whether it's NX or meso.
In most probable scenarios, dexless scrolled for luk will beat dexless scrolled for dex, if that's what your question is. Dexless scrolled for luk is quite a strong contender, especially with Skandas. However, the maximum potential is lower than that of dexless scrolled for dex.
Likewise, spending points in dex is worth it if you end up with enough weapon attack. An average Sleve could theoretically end up at 85 weapon attack, if you had a 34 Skanda and +7'd it with 30/10, you'd have a 69 weapon attack claw. The extra 16 does make a large difference.
However, the Sleve also requires 150 dex as opposed to the Skanda's requirement of 25 (Yes, I know it doesn't actually require this amount, but being a thief does). That's 125 dex you have to find from stats or gear, either way, you lose out on quite a bit of luk.
Basically, it's hard to determine how to build your character if you don't have specific gear in mind.
It seems like you're pretty set on dexless scrolled for luk (if scrolled at all). You'll be a lot like many others before you and after you. Depending on your gear, you may or may not do more damage than any player of the types you mentioned in your question. So really, a couple of your questions aren't really very answerable. Long-winded response considering that fact, huh.
