This has been a hot topic on the AQ forums and I thought we might start it here. Is dexterity worth it? would it make much of a difference having 50 vs 100 vs 200 Dex?
Personally I am stopping at 100 dex. My build is one so I block a lot but I also need many stat points because I use both INT and STR. The argument on the forums is that 50+ dex is pointless. Most high lvl monsters now will basically hit you no matter what so instead of using more than 50 points in dex the rest is used in end. Thoughts?

i personally don't find much difrence in having 50 or 75 dex.. perhaps its not so much but its actually 25 points i could spend in end which give me like 125 hp..

DEX is very usefull.
200 DEX=+20 dodging and loads of accuracy. It also adds 13 to Ranged random.

With the introduction of Berserker, anyone wanting to take full advantage of the class will have to invest in Dex in fairly large amounts so as to offset the many, many negative BTH bonuses the armor makes the skills work with. At the same time it allows melee characters to carry a single ranged backup in the case of meeting one of the many high Melee defense/Low Ranged defense mobs that the staff has begun to favor.

It's worth it at higher level in general, not worth at low levels. 10 END gives you about 50 HP(atleast for me, but it's rather tied at some level-scaled formula) 10 STR gives you +1 BTH, +1 random for every hit 10 CHA gives you +1 BTH and has a chance to give a +1 random, too.
10 DEX gives you 1% chance of blocking, +1 BTH, +1 random for ranged.However, INT and STR give twice as much(at 10 are both rounded to 1, though).
At high level is mainly because more important things in build are maxed out and because monsters start to hit more, which means 1 block helps out a little more.

No...Jason, 10 DEX is stupid and pointless, use it fully or none at all.
