    Since we're going into a new patch with another rise in the level cap. I figure that the Brawler community should have an open discussion on what we term as the "best" way to solve our accuracy problems. May that be DEX, CRT, or a mix of both for the general everyday Brawler.

    Both, because DEX still adds on a bit of extra stats (Atk, Aspd) however not enough to fix accuracy, so that's where CRIT comes in I guess.

    Personally wouldn't take crit, why? increased aspd = increased #hits = increased overall damage. I would want to prorate as fast as possible, plus it's pretty hard to get high crit rate without losing other valuable stats. For me it's good but not really too much needed, hence I would max Agi and Dex first.

    Max agi then use iron thorn for 50℅ crit rate (12 crit rate without crit stat)
    Dex can be counter by dodge but not crit

    With gothic hat now , 100% critical build shouldn't be so hard right?

    Base Critical Rate = +23.5
    60 stat for Cri = +20
    Weapon and armor = +22
    Weapon and armor = +22%
    Gothic Hat = +15
    Total critical rate =
    ( 23.5 + 20 + 22 + 15 ) * 1.22
    = 80.5 * 1.22
    = 98.21%

    Another xtal for +2 critical rate will 100% right?correct me if I'm wrong...

    Btw, is it 100% critical will make 100% hit ( except for evade ) ? Because I plan to add DEX for my brawler, but critical seen more better......

    Base Crate should be 25. Actually, where did you get 23.5?
    You'll get around 17 Crate with 60 CRT.
    Close enough not to matter much though.

    So with the new Gothic Hat, low CRT builds got a pretty hefty boost that also helps out Dex builds. Who would have 75% CRT rate with this new hat, assuming similar gear. I personally think the CRT build will win damage wise though.

    Read from one Taiwan toram forum.

    I was thinking the same too....DEX may raise brawler damage a bit but critical provide more stable damage....

    Ah okay. Well, i'm not going to knock the Taiwan forum on what they think it may be. Well only think it's 25 here ourselves. 1.5% won't really show itself either way.

    Yeah, you can't really beat 95%~ 100% hit rate on anything that should hit. DEX's biggest merit for me is cast speed. And that's only because I love the ideal of .5 second Mini Heals and the possibility of other utility healing skills requiring cast time. Something that I should probably let go of, since they haven't released another utility skill that is affected by cast time, since Mini Heal.

    The only way I see DEX making a comeback is if they make gear that increases (x)ATK by DEX amount. Which may be likely considering how much they used to push for DEX + Short Range DMG % back in the day. But this is just an ideal with nothing hinting towards it in reality.

    Otherwise, DEX's gain of atk, matk, accuracy, and slight stability aren't worth 20% ~ 30% ~ 40% crate increases from CRT anymore. Since we can actually obtain 90% crate with minimal sacrifices. Besides HP from gear.

    Edit:
    Was just thinking on it, but elemental weapons may close the gap a bit. Reason being, that low CRT builds won't get 90% Crate until much later in the build. So there's still some aspects to look at that may help DEX builds a bit.
