I just hit level 20 and I'm noticing that the DPS of my Duelist Sim (Dancer) is the lowest of the party.
My current party in the Elderstone Mines: Me (dps Druid), Scrubby (Paladin), Dancer (Duelist), Phanty (Arcanist), and Baetil (heal Druid).
Phanty usually tops the DPS at around 400. Next is me, at around 300, then Scrubby/Baetil around 220. Last is always Dancer, who struggles to break 200. I give them all the upgraded gear I find killing bosses and try to pump her STR (109). She is currently using 2 Songmaker swords. How can I improve her DPS?

duelists like dex im pretty sure. and str second. i play a duelist (lvl 35) and i couldnt out dps my stormcaller sim until i was into the 30's. now im doing almost twice as much as the next highest dps. maybe throw some dex items at the duelist and see what happens.

Duelists want a balance between strength for damage and dexterity for crits, with strength being a bit higher. They go through phases where they fall behind because of lack of new abilities and 20 is right in the middle of that range. ☹️
