    Default Dumb Question --- Apologies in Advance !!

    Morning all

    I know this is gonna be bad but I am gonna ask anyways.



    It was my belief ( cause thats what I was told ) that you could not raise ANY stat above 36. ( With rage increasing STR and CON being different cause well ... its rage )

    Anyways, I am at a point where 2 of my capped toons are sitting at 36 DEX heading into their 20th Shroud and I'd love to use a +3 Dex tome on them if I pulled one BUT I wanna make sure that this isnt going to be a wasted tome. ( Although I have already used a + 1 previously ,..... I do realize that the shroud end reward would only count as a +2 )

    Regardless I guess this question is ...... can a stat be rasied ( without buffs n rage ) higher than 36 ?

    Thanks all

    There is no limit. Your dex can happily climb to 37, 38, and onward. Good luck on the tomes!

    04 - showtime - Rogue Acrobat
    01 - Lotd - Well you know where it drops
    03 - alchemical potion - House D poitions ... collector item turn-ins

    Question one may be able to afford a monk splash? for another few points from air stance or would showtime not engage?

    what the others said^^

    maybe should have split the +9 into +6 item and +3 exceptional bonus, but whatever, those above me answered that already

    I used to think the only dumb question was the unasked one... until I read some of the people on this forum!

    PS - this isn't a dumb question at all, but you might want to ask in the appropriate thread (even though all the smart people run on Khyber).

    Give me time !!



    Thanks for all the responces ..... SO from what I can tell

    Sure I can get a WAY high DEX but its gonna take alot of time and grinding to uphold that Stat

    Also .... I am not seeing any benefit in adding +9 dex to a longbow when there are SO many better crafting options that will do damage. If this was avail on an item however ... I'd be all over that !!

    SO with that said .... I guess I should be looking around 38-40 as a max dex avail to a pure ranger whos not gonna collect items for house D pots or worry about grinding for a LOTD item.

    Again to all, thanks for your help in at least clearing up that I thoght 36 was a max unbuffed stat within DDO for the last 2 years !!

    I guess when you play the game for 3 years, but only start to read the forums in the last 3 months you can miss out on a wealth of knowledge !!

    For the record ...... I am removing ****** off my list as a toon that I frequently ask questions too !!

    He also told me that Large Scales are not worth anything ........ He was right about this though ................ Right ?



    Cya in game in a couple hours !!
