I wasnt dexless. Just pointed out my training areas back then, and I am comparing that to now.

I found that the best thing lvl 21 avenger did was bring stability to those monters that you almost 1hko. The avenger adds enough umph to get over the hump and make a consistent 1hko. An extra 1 or 2 % on that attack isn't going to make any difference.
It depends on where you're training. I've seen 7x does 1-2hko at voodoo IIRC, and IMO, the extra 1-2% gives you more 1hko chances. By the time you had 21 avenger, you would've already maxed out SP...
RoxStarz Wrote:Maybe you didn't use Avenger much, but then again, how long were you in your 70's? I was lvl 7x for along long time. I found many places to use it. I even used it on voodoo/hoodoo. Why did I use it there? When they spawn you can shoot one avenger and it aggroes all 4 voodoo or hoodoo, and they start to slowly walk toward you. You can then just sit there and blast away. Much less running and more efficient killing.
On the contrary, I use avenger alot more than you think. I used to train at places like DT, viking, where avenger helps heap in mob gathering. But nowaday, there're better training grounds.
RoxStarz Wrote:From what I can gather is you never used 1 avenger going through your 7x levels so you don't know how useful it could have been to you. It was a nice skill to have and was well worth the 1% or 2% less dmg that l7 did.
You're assuming too much. Either way, there's no right or wrong, it came down to personal preferences. But yeah, I got 13 FJs before I got SP, simply because I was bored with MS and I wanted to hunt bosses (MM and Jr Rog), so yeah, I walk around with 5 avengers first. If you like avenger that much, go for it, or if you're into damage, which is probably the reason why you're building a dexless sin in the first place, then go for max SP. There's no right or wrong.
