DEX

DEX (short for Dexterity) is one of the four primary stats. It is the dominant damage stat of the Bowman branch and the primary contributor to the accuracy derived stat for every job. Outside bowmen, every physical class adds DEX in small amounts: warriors need DEX to land hits on high-avoidability monsters, and thief sub-jobs (especially Assassins) use DEX both as a secondary damage contributor and to wield their weapons.
