Has anyone found much noticable improvement with these skills over 100
or so? I tried collecting all the dex, str and agility items I could
borrow from friends or had stuck away in my bank and I really couldn't
see much difference in how often I hit between around 105 dex to up to
128 dex. Likewise pumping agility from 102 to around 130 (counting
ranger's feet like cat buff) seemed to not really cause me to get
hit noticably less. Strength doesn't seem to matter much either bumped
from my usual 117 up to 157 with items, and various strenth buffs.

People seem to think there's certain "magic" numbers where's there's a
huge leap in improvement. The one's I've heard are 76 and 100, and some
say another at 150, but it seems over 100 doesn't noticably make a lot
of difference.
