Melee Classes, Accuracy/Dex- Sweet Spot or Missing Balance?

[RememberMyName]

Wasn't the old rule of thumb for non-IM'd characters to put 1 point of dex in per level up until 50? Are people doing that and still missing attacks?

Yea, but the dealio is that every stat atm is 4x less effective than it used to be; like how Str would yield 4 melee per point, it yields 1. The same is said for the reduced relationship between accuracy and dex.

What I can only assume is the monsters haven't been adjusted to reflect this change, and are rocking some insane evasion relative to everyone's stats. It's also probably why they're 2-shotting people so often, and feel like they take forever to kill lol.

Oh damn. I obviously haven't gotten too far yet, but I guess that's why it's a CBT!
