Is it worth changing to blade?

Hi there, pretty new to this game :>

I have a 56 blader, and I was wondering about heavy bladers. Is it best to use blades and go for strength instead of dexterity? I'm using katanas and going for dex, and frankly I think katanas are cool, which is the only argument I have for not using blades xD
That and the fact that I have two bluestin katanas of adept +2 :P

So should I drop the katanas and go for strength in the future for some endgame pvp fun?

Blades - more atk
Katanas - more magic, hit rate - rather worthless thing at pvp.

However... Go as you like, difference will be rather unnoticable.

In the end, you'll be able to wear both.

For lvl 90ish or so it's best to go heavy blader and wear osmium armorset.

However, after lvl 99 you'll most likely be wearing mystic.

Doesn't really matter in the end, heavy blader is just for the intermediate levels.

Thanks for the feedback. I thought the heavy blader build was used for endgame pvp to be able to make use of the low def rate ^^

depends on how rich you are i guess..
mystic has better def than osmium armor, but slotted osmium is more common....
