Best Secondary Stat For Odachi User?

[Sephiroth]

Thank you for the detailed breakdown of stats and what they do for me, that was very helpful. Looks like I'll be investing in dex and finding myself some good magtamas to take advantage of my potential attack speed. I'm just wondering how soon I should start throwing points onto dex? Or if I should keep dumping into pow until I reach 100 and then begin on dex. (Is there enough points in the game to bring both stats to 100?)

I'm literally sitting on 130 unused points at the moment just because I've debating my secondary stat for so long.

The only reason I ask which is because I'm feeling a bit underpowered when I solo normal dungeons of my level. Though a large quantity of that is just plain lag making me die stupidly because pure pow is a bit squishy (admittedly, I probably have some pretty crappy magtamas equipped because I don't quite have a handle on what I should be using yet and am having a difficult time finding what I need)

Whenever you feel comfortable. Personally I got up to ~70 Dex, invested a little in Mind(for Invigorate because I often play with a Wand user) and went back to Dex until it was 85~90. Pumped more into secondary stats and now I'm back to focusing on Dex until 100.

Replace your affinity magatamas with skill force as soon as you can... though I can't offer much advice in that regard other than "farm hard/hell dungeons with level 27-32ish enemies." Can't remember off the top of my head if there are any Odachi skill force magatamas from quests or bargains. Whatever the case is, it can take quite a while to get a full set of skill force magatamas depending on whether or not you have OC to spend so don't worry too much about it. If you're lucky and you get one and you lose affinity just spend the next few levels going back to inflating Power.

Are you trying to dodge everything or are you tanking hits by blocking now and then? Odachi has the second best block reduction(alongside Axe) so put that to good use.
