STR is undoubtedly the victor. DA's high delay is not worth the small boost that a RDM (or PLD. or BLU.) would see in attack frequency, and with RDM being so far behind in attack as it is the STR shamshir is far more valuable.

DEX/ACC destroys everything if you actually constructively need the ACC (which is to say in an intelligent build, not some build where you'd be better off eating accuracy food and using a different build (ie typically those where you drop lots of Haste)).

Between DA and STR, I seem to remember STR coming on top but it's been ages since I did the math. I found they were relatively similar anyway, and given the difference in effort involved...

I felt the DEX sword was implicit in times of deficient accuracy, but I suppose I couldn't hurt to mention it.

For blu, str sword gets a little boost because it helps spells but DA doesn't. If we had a Joyeuse +1 with 50 damage and 45-50% da, I'd be thrilled to offhand that.

If I ever did fight anything moderately evasive I find Calmecac trousers start becoming problematic for accuracy (hence I went with acc/DW ACP body), new haste pants are on the way I think... also I'd rather switch to acc sword if it means I can keep Curry Buns rather than do Str and pizza.

Last time I did math for Rdm I had Str sword 3-5% better than DA sword (assuming uncapped attack), at least at 90, and didn't look like it changed much for 95.

RDM may have a shitton of MND to throw around but the attack penalty is going to hurt like hell on a job with such a low attack score.

Not worried about the Attack so much as the accuracy on rdm to be honest. Isn't too hard to get roughly +60mnd and still maintain 650att with food, but accuracy is a different story.
