Question about damage Dex vs. (Str + Attack power)

[Kiara]

Double meld of attack materia on gloves continued to show a significant difference, especially on the Paladin moogle. (this was compared to a double melded Dexterity pair of gloves)

Hi Murugan,

Nice find. Thanks for the info.

Do you have a rough estimate for how much increase you got with +Attack Power vs. +DEX Gloves you were using?

Thanks!

The ratio is about the same as in the first test you should notice an around 10-20% boost in damage on high defense mobs such as Whiskerwall when using Attack in the place of Dexterity materia (16 dex-26 attack).

a theory to be tested str to atk: the more and more i play around with str gear attack gear and my dex gear the more i think that strength doesn't convert to atk on a point by point basis but a percentage of your str is treated as atk
