Rox, you contradicted yourself a bit. You start out saying that "dexless winning in every phase" then go on to acknowledge that "dexless begins to lose their luster". I'm confused on what to debate for on my part lol.
So you know that a dexless starts out cheaper than low dex. I agree. I mentioned it in the 2nd question of the FAQ. Decent kandayos are not only cheaper than a dex claw and it's dex equipment needed, it's also more beneficial because you don't need dex.
So you base your calculations of dexless vs low dex off of level 110. I'm sure you're familiar with the phrase "at later levels, dexless lose". In fact, you even said it yourself that dexless lose their luster. 110, isn't quite there yet. Somewhere in the 140-160 is when you can really see the difference in dexless and low dex. Even at 130, a dexless skanda user can beat low dex. You can see and ask any high leveled NL in here and here. The dexless all range between levels 30-100. But all the high leveled ones are all low dex.
So you say this guide is biased and it discourages the dexless build. The raven claw looks like a sleeping giant to be honest. But that's all that it is for the moment--sleeping. Until someone figures out how to get it, it doesn't hold any threat to the low dex build.. yet. We might as well consider the level 120 level up timeless claw. Because that'll really give a good push to low dex too even if it's not available yet. That claw is worth discussing, but what's there to discuss if no one has seen, used or mostly importantly, experienced it yet? And I did mention it in the 3rd question of the FAQ.
All the things you say I omitted, I did mention in the FAQ.
