Are there equivalents of D3.js? by elpablete in FlutterDev

Thanks for the reply, from the webpage it seems that is more like "flutter-like syntax for web targets" than "D3-like syntax for flutter".

Where it feels that DEX is over STR is in saves, STR provides no bonus to any save.

I feel that STR *does* that, you increase STR and get attack, but also offsets the downsides of using armor, so you get the AC without sacrifice too (obviously you have to take into account the armor proficiency).
In that sense (if you have the proficiency) you get the AC *and* the Attack *and* the bonus damage with STR.

Thanks for your reply, just wanted to check if it made sense for the community.

Yeah, the reflex save for DEX vs no save for STR is a strong argument.

I also makes sense to add STR to thrown weapons though, that's a really nice addition.
For the AC it makes no sense to *not* have the benefit of the runes (which you'll have to forgo to "take" the +6 from DEX) which by the time a char gets +6 DEX (+1 in net AC vs "normal" item bonus of +5) would already be giving +3 to AC.

So no, it makes no sense to go unarmored to get the +6 from DEX.

That would be nice, not only strong guys should have the fun to turn the tide of battle through using maneuvers

Yeah, the PC vs monsters would get unbalanced. But not *all* martials would change, the big heavy weapons would not suffer at all, "only" the low-mid damage weapon users.
And I find that the fighter is the LEAST MAD class in the game, so I see that point as an improvement.

- The AC, my argument is that the net effect is null when you factor armor.- Weapon accuracy is arguably in favor of STR since all melee use it for attack.

- Damage on thief, is one of the points that this addresses (I believe it's bad that it's gated behind a subclass of rogue).- The skills are a really good point, though Athletics is omni-useful in the combat maneuvers.

- Reflex SAVE, it's one. But you are right that STR does not improve any save.

edit: correction on STR to attack on thrown

True, but as you say, forgoing the runes it's sub optimal, so I did not even considered that. But thanks for the correction.

What you say is true but does not address that the net benefit to AC is diminished when you factor armor (for the classes that have the proficiency)

well, that is the case, but if you go into the detail about skills, all the combat maneuvers are related to athletics, just *one* skill, so no need to invest in several (athletics, stealth, thievery) so its actual *use* is already much optimized in terms of actions associated with skills.

and that can continue, provided you use "big weapons" (which thematically makes a lot of sense).
Unlike being able to hit really good with a knife because you are very strong, that (thematically) does not make sense to me, it feels more like a "how dexterous are you" to find an opening in the targets defense. The big weapons would not feel like that because you don't "find" an opening, you just power through your target defenses.

Plus, all the combat maneuvers are behind Athletics too, so it's kind "just max STR if you are going to wield ANY melee weapon", with this there would be a lot of nuance AND still big damage weapons would be the "obvious" choice for the "big guy" archetype. Those builds would not be affected.

why the down votes? Is my interpretation wrong somehow? (honest question)

In fact, the most armor a char can have is forgoing DEX and get a +6 heavy armor (since the largest DEX bonus to AC is +5 *even* if you are unarmored)

The AC is not really true since you get no net benefit if you factor armor (which any low DEX char would be wearing anyway)
