    The only thing Dex boosts is your parry chance, which is a pretty pitiful boost for a monk.

    i said DODGE not CRIT. I'm getting crit from gear...

    Try it and see for yourself. Just because the tooltip itself doesn't list it doesn't mean it doesn't have any ingame value as a hidden mechanic. If you proc the same dodge abilities on your pug/monk and lancer with different stats than come and tell me it doesn't do anything, if not and your pug/monk does dodge more-than please stop spreading what you think is right..

    Have you even remotely tested this btw or are you just spouting out what you found on the internet? Let me know when you do.

    that's the tooltip description, parry doesn't help but being able to dodge about 3 times in a battle if it even lasts that long is actually really good vs. maybe once. Tested this on a pug/monk and switch to lancer.

    And if you can justify by saying it's all "class" based than please do explain, and if you say hidden ingame mechanics and who's to say dex does not have any hidden ingame mechanics? The class base itself is hard as stats are individual for each char, and gear gives stats. All the different gear really do is give you a different label and different skills..
