I could either go lowdex and get + 60 dex so I can use a 45 atk claw
or dexless and use the 40 atk claw.
Which?
The two claws are

Depends on the level. 60 dex, or rather luk considering you're sacrificing for it is roughly 4:1 below level 105, 5:1 roughly at 105-130 where it will shoot to 6:1 and so on.

Assuming were talking level 90 (I can't click the links atm) you're looking at a 4:1 or close to 5:1 depending if you ARE dexless, or whether you're reg dex. You also have to be a lil more specific of what equips because some equipment can only add dex making luk not an option and adding dex is your only option for that selective piece of equipment. Example: you can have a 4 dex nose, but you can't have a 4 luk, so when you calculate how much luk you lose, the 4 dex is a bonus.

60 luk is equilavent to 15 weapon attack, so you're losing 10 weapon attack total if you "add" that dex or use a dex robe.

Vindicate, its a Night Walker. It cant go past level 120 (As you said 105-130.) And I will probably get +15 luk too, with the zhelm. and I might get a dep star(+5 luk), so Im only losing 40 luk, actully.

If you end up with 8 LUK = 1 ATK it won't really matter. Either way, go dexless until you're actually planning to use the claws, because the (broken, 28 base attack) level 30 tube is DEXless.

Edit: derp derp reading skills

IMO if you're going to make a Raven equip, make a Night version. While this applies better to Eyes and Wings (Snipers and Warriors actually benefit from the +1 extra speed over the other Raven equips), there's not much point in adding 40 DEX just to use a claw that has 5 more base attack (at least not until much later levels, which, as Vindictive said, KoCs can't reach).

Stick with dexless. You bound to get enough dex to wear other gears later given the current trend.
