So, normal stat characters win now?

There's no easy way to explain it, but it requires you to A.) Put items on in a specific order, from lowest requirement to highest requirement, B.) Your "I can wear this now" equip has to give you %stat for the stat you're lacking, and C.) You need to have Maple Warrior.

It works by benefiting from the way %Stat also increases the small amount you get from Maple Warrior... for some reason, though, I've yet to develop a way to explain this that I can prove in numbers... when I remove my Reverse Myst Blue (-5 luk) from the equation, I have 112 luk after MW30, but it requires 120... that's with my 4% boost from other equips, so I'm at a loss as to wtp is happening now ._.

I don't understand how you can manage to equip the reverse items even now, let alone after you roll back 10 more int and switch from HTP to MoN as you said you are considering doing. That would be 28 less luk than now.

Edit: Oh, and swapping shield too -there goes another 18luk. I think it would be difficult to equip lvl 80 stuff by then.
