AP DISTRIBUTION:
I usually don't like these sections because it's a very simple concept that applies to every class. Keep your secondary stat (DEX) as low as possible (in regards to your funding) while being able to wear level appropriate weapons (daggers and kataras). Using a dagger that requires STR is unpractical and highly unrecommended. It can put you at a (major) damage disadvantage, unless you can fulfill the STR requirement from (multiple stat) equipment.
Keeping your secondary stat as low as possible also applies to equips, in a different way to take advantage of potential system tiers.
"As low as possible" shouldn't be taken too seriously because you shouldn't purposely limit game content to yourself.
A more specific DEX cap most DBs have would be 60-80.
Two implications for the future regarding this section include item sets to encourage using all high level equips - recent Von Leon and PvP equips; and scrapping the secondary stat system altogether - the Visitors event and equips.
