Dexterity

Dexterity (or Dex) is one of three attributes, along with Strength and Intelligence. Dexterity is required to equip most evasion rating-granting armour, as well as ranged and some melee weapons and skills. Characters gain +5 accuracy rating per dexterity.

Base stats

Characters start with a certain amount of base dexterity based on their character class.

Pure dexterity character classes (Ranger and Huntress) start with 15 Dexterity.
Hybrid dexterity character classes (Shadow, Monk, Duelist, and Mercenary) start with 11 Dexterity.
All other non-dexterity character classes start with 7 Dexterity.

Dexterity provides an inherent bonus of +5 accuracy per 1 dexterity.

This inherent bonus can be changed to grant 1% increased armour per 2 dexterity through the Knightly Tenets keystone from Heroic Tragedy.
