    Now I'm not sure what to be >_<.

    Can someone give a damage estimate between Tarutaru and Hume? Also I don't want to be a Mithra, so please don't sugest it. Also would leveling before sneak attack be hard as a Taru? If anyone knows how leveling would be before fuidama or sneak attack, with Hume and Taru? And a damage estimate at higher levels between the two, if anyone knows?

    Again, thanks for the opinions, :D.

      Dex affects fuidama damage. More Dex, more damage. Mithras are the best because they naturally have the highest so boost it even more and you become super.

        Hume has the most +Dex RSE. To be effective, THF's shouldn't deck themselves out in full AF (only when they want to look good), they're all loaded up with +Dex on their armor, in hume's case they'd be wearing stuff like RSE gloves, whereas other classes would be lacking in those equipments.

          I'll go Hume. Thanks for the info about the RSE Awntawn.

          I understand that Mithra has the most DEX, but really, I don't want to be a girl. If there were male Mithras that's probably what I would be, but since there isn't I'll go with Hume. I'm stubborn I guess.

            I'll agree with that. Male Hume Lvl 48 thf/20 nin with 70 dex. heres my gear:

            leaping boots
            emperors hairpin
            marauder's knife
            merc capt doublet
            fang necklance
            bastok ring
            amethyst ring
            rse gloves

            Theres some other stuff in there too but nothing that adds to my dex. Yes I know I need balance rings but theres nobody in beta who can make them consistently yet so they are pretty rare.

                I chose an Elvaan for a thief and I'm happy with it, regardless of what other people say. The important thing is to enjoy the game... pick who you want because YOU want it, not because it's the popular consensus. The hell with everyone else.
                Heh, did I mention my sub's a whm? I'm sure that gets a bunch of additional disgusted looks, but I don't really give a shit.
                I picked an Elvaan because I liked their look the best, and whm because I like healing/protecting/statusing myself along the way. Nuts to anyone trying to impose their own beliefs on me... I just like enjoying my game.

                RIP, Zoro, RIP.... your name may be "unavailable," but your soul remains the same... >_<

                      Ah, okay, now it makes sense. So Dex DOES affect a Thief's damage output by raising fuidama damage.

                      And taking RSEs into account, you can get more DEX on a Hume than a Galka, even if their default DEX is the same. Interesting.

                      That certainly clears a few things up and makes Humes look better than TaruTaru or Galka as thieves, in my opinion.

                      Just for point-of-reference, fuidama is sneak attack, right?

                      And . . . how much DEX, if any, do Elvaan RSEs give?

                        Well I made up my mind, I'm going to be a Tarutaru. Starting as Warrior then once I've done the sub job quest, I'll be Theif/Warrior.

                            The key point is to just play what you have fun playing. Ya, stats can be a factor if your focused on being a power player type. If that's all you focus on though you can miss out on a lot that this game has to offer. God Bless.

                              DEX increases sneak attack damage and AGI increases trick attack damage. DEX and AGI are the most important stats for a thief.

                                I chose Elvaan and despite what people say I am going to equip my character the best that I can and hope for the best. Right now I have 34+20 DEX at level 30. I believe I have 30+8 AGI right now. Soon to be getting Nomads Mantle+1(+2 AGI) and Genin Earring(+4 AGI when I get NIN sub). My equips are listed in my profile. Elvaan RSE adds a lot of DEX and AGI because it is a natural weakness for them(it seems most RSE peices attempt to make up for that weakness). All I have now are the gloves (+2DEX), but I'm getting the pants at LV31(+2DEX, +2AGI). I think Elvaans can indeed make a formidable thief, but I'm going to try it out for myself. I think the extra STR for Elvaans can help on IT high defense mobs, because Tarus and Mithras might have more "0" hits, hence slowing TP gain. I never seem to have this problem so far.

                                EDIT: Forgot to add, haven't really had a chance to try out SATA against an IT mob. When I got 30 in my last PT it happened to be a YhoatarJng party with PLD, THF, 3BLM, WHM(hehe we chained those mandys like no tomorrow), so I didn't have a chance to set up a SATA. However, my SA+Fastblades at 29-30 were doing consistently 200-250dmg. Can't wait to see what SATA+Fastblade or even better SATA+Viberbite does.

                                EDIT2: Whoa WTF?! I just wasted my time posting on a almost 1 year old post. Who bumped this LOL :mad:
