Does anyone know what DEX effects?

Obviously ATK does nothing for Gracia. I'm wondering if DEX effects the power of specials and what not. I will be testing this. I'm trying to create the ultimate broken weapon for her. There must be some reason why her dex stat is her second highest at 240(lv70).

On her 5th weapon, I got the following attributes:

RIDE+19, RIDE+17, DEX+20, DEF+20, LCK+16, LCK+16, MuCh+20, MuCh+19

All except for DEX and DEF, came with the weapon when I got it.

I want to make it like

DEX+20, DEX+20, DEX+20, DEF+20, DEF+20, MuCh+20, MuCh+20, RNG+20.

The idea behind this, quick refilling of musou bar. The range attribute to widen the scope of her 2 charge attacks(STT, and SSSST; TT doesn't seem to bad on getting musou charge, and it's quick)that take full advantage of MuCh attribute. And..assuming DEX does what I think it does, making her R1s pack more punch in higher difficulties. And well..always need more def!

I doubt she's anything but complex, lol. Anyway, her C1 refills some musou, her C2 is the one that does most of the damage and her other charges are good for keeping the enemy away, I guess. Her R1s tried to keep with her SW2:XL R1s as much as they could, her standing R1 releases 3 fireballs and if you press square, then it's 3 lightning balls and her dir+R1 is the green orbs of glitchy doom.

I hope this helped. :unsure:

Silvy pretty much summed it up in the post just above yours. her 2nd costume orange-red and white makes me LOVE :wub: her so much. she does seem a bit less competent at first in WO2, but once she gets leveled up with a 3rd weapon, she's pretty devastating.

I really like Gracia pearsonality and appearence. But when I played as her I found her to be useless, she has awful range and is slow. I find it hard to hit people at all, she just punches them, a little amature compared to the awsome weapons most people use to whipe out hords of enemys XD

I assume you have never used her Special, mounted, Musou, C1 and C2 attacks in SW2XL... >_>.

She's great in WO2 as well, but once again, she requires a lot of patience and practice. Rushing into huge crowds filled with enemy officers is the worst mistake you can do with her. I myself like to spam her Specials, C1 and C2-2. Although her shield doesn't last long once activated, it's enough to allow her to make good use of R1+S. And if enemy officer is near a wall, you can always use her shield glitch which easily takes away half of enemy officers HP.

I find Gracia quite unique. When I first played her in SW2 XL, I though she was appauling. Her atrack was bad, and her range was very bad. I wasn't until she leveled up when I finally started to like her more and work with her ^_^ . Her Specials were amazing and so was her musou, just not a very good crowd clearer. Personality wise, she was cute, I liked her.

I kind of like her moveset. But I HATED her in SW2XL. "Mago? Maaaagoooooo?" That got so irritating. If she doesn't have a historic musou in the next game or something with her dad, I'll kill somebody. :realangry: (if anyone, probably her :meantongue: )
In WO2 she was way better. She was with her dad, didn't have an annoying voice, etc. :lol:
Thanks to Jiahe for the brilliant sig!

Please do, because apparently I'm playing her all too wrong because I can't stand suffering through her long enough to learn how to play her 'right' on my own.

I'm hoping for a better story for her if she stays for SW3, that's all. She was much more tolerable in WO2, I found...

I agree. She does look fun to use with Almighty on her weapon, but wihtout it... :wacko: Gracia's really hard for me to use compared to others (and I have her 4th weapon too).

As you know that her moveset is very bad in SW2XL. :crazy: But because of WO2's almighty, her moveset is better than SW2XL. In my opinion, her special attack is better than WO2. ^_^

Just found out: Gracia's dirR1 in WO2 VS mode is absolutely broken when you corner your enemy to the wall.

Oh man. I totally love you for doing this video how-to. I'm getting so sick of people bashing Gracia's moveset. Sure, her REGULAR move set sucks, but her R specials are one of the strongest and most useful I've ever seen. Way better than No's, Oichi's or Mitsunari's, for that matter :| :))

Gracia is interesting, ^_^ she is a funny character and cute.Yet, she is more complex then that.

Her history is amazing, and something they should add in SW3.

Sadly in WO2 she is severely nerfed except for a wonderful little glitch Koei must not have noticed. Use her R1+forward on an officer near a wall and the attack ALMOST completely wipes them out (unless you are stronger than yes you will wipe them out.)

I like her in both games but I preferred her in SW2XL
Currently Playing:
DW: Strikeforce - Maxing out Huang Zhong and Lu Xun. Hooray for repetitive grinding...
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite - Defeating every quest. Curse you completionism!!!
WO2 (Ps2) - TRYING to unlock Orochi Z. I do not have that kind of patience... darn proficiency levels

Games I want:
WO2 (PSP) - I just want to play as Sanzang and Benkei. Go sleeves of doom!!!
Dissidia: Final Fantasy - anyone vs. Sephiroth = Cool!

I like her, though I will admit I consider her my "cheater character" only because I have a tendency not to actually use her full moveset and just spam certain things over and over. Yeah... she can flatten people. Yay flattening people! XD
