If you were level 80+ in Beta you could get away with claiming 90 to be "low" dex (in Beta the recommended build was dex = 2*level to 30, then +1 per level after that) but by the time GMS came out, normal builds were already capping in the 80-100 range. I don't know more than a handful of warriors who ever went higher than 100 dex, and they were all using high-dex builds.I guess my wording was off. What I meant to say was it wasn't low dex but back when I was full out training my sader before zhelms were easy to get and everything, people would have dex capped off at 100 or more to wear stone tooth swords, or some just used the blue sader mail all the way to level 100. I mean basically my question is I want to get him back on track what do I need. I have a Ravana helm should I use that or try and get a chaos Zhelm?
The higher you get the less important base dex is, since it's proportionally smaller (300+86 str is a big deal, 900+86 not so much), so I wouldn't worry about it too much. It's just silly to say you went 90 because it was low-dex. With that much dex you never need to wear dex gear, which is the most rational description of "low dex" I can come up with.
I've seen my Paladin go from low dex to normal to its current somewhat high dex, just as a result of changing equipment standards (35 dex since level 18, which was in 2005). When I was in 3rd job I used an accuracy glove to hit Grim Phantom Watches, among other acc/dex gear, now I have every possible str equipment and I'm still well ahead of the acc to hit Chief Oblivion Guardians.
