Man wondering if I should still gear with dex since swordies will be fighting on almost the same level now as me

SM dont fight at "same level" if u talk about Dodge. they get higher dodge of course, but u get higher hit rate, but u have to remember u have dodge pot that SM cant use, so ur dodge will be even higher than ever with new DEX gears. and fighters get +40% damage on HSN and SHSN...in my opinion fighters get more advantage on SM with this new update, using same gear...

No ronhell, you are talking too soon.
SM will get more lvl from they old skills ...
like the debuff, will get now 30 prop, on lvl 62.

yes, but fighters also get more levels on old skills.

yes but SM do a lot of more damage than fighters, im online at KR and know it.
My sword lvl 56 with medium gears hitkill mobs lvl 70 ... my friend lvl 60 with nice equips (better than me) just cant.
THe debuff of 30 prop can hitkill with no critical .... is amazing.

gezzz 30 prop debuff ?! that gonna be beast on tournaments :O btw did they disabled pots, auto pots, senzus from tournaments like someone said ? I'm kinda curious about it, would make budokais alot more fair imo.

Fighters will kick ass

I lol at this comment. Shadow Knight's will still prove to be a thorn in their arse. Even with a LP60% cap, the new Legendary 70 armour will allow SKs to have even more LP% then they do now during tournaments.

Even with the fighters new hitrate buff, will still be the scum of the game!
