With the snake head hat, I think I will get rid of the crit build and go for the double damage katar build.

I am still wondering which one will be better, a Jamadhar or a Katar with the same upgrade level. I think I'll add a skel worker card (maybe 2 if I use the katar). Is there a better card for the katar? Zipper bear does not seem to add that much damage compared to skel worker, but I haven't tested so I'm not too sure about that.

mummy card, unless you plan to get base dex up to ~50-60.

That's a good idea, but where else will the points instead of dex?

Adding more to Str past 60 does not seem to worth it to me, since I can add a dmg card in place of those points and I'll probably have more dmg with more base dex.

Maybe a mummy and more points for Vit?

Due to the difference being only 17 points in Attack, and both being level 3 (significant), Katar [2] is ALWAYS better than Jhamadar [1], even in Renewal mechanics.  Clearly in old RO Katar just strips Jhamadar of all usefulness at high Strength (70+, though by 50+ it's already dominant).

 

Even if only for an extra Skeleton Soldier card for a universal Katar (where you'll get more damage out of the Jhamadar per hit, but crit significantly more with the Katar), the Katar is superior.

 

Jhamadar [1] would be better if the difference were more like 30 points, or if it were a level 4 weapon.  It doesn't even matter what cards you put in that are attack/offense based.  The extra slot just makes up the difference in overall DPS/output.  This is as true for +5 as it is for +7/9/10/12...

Why does Katar [2] sell for 1mil less than Jamadhar [1]?

If Katar [2] + Andre Card can be achieved for 600K less why is there such a difference in price?

Most probably because it's free after changing to assassin.

Without sonic acceleration or some hit boosting card/gear, you're going to miss a lot late game unless you're a crit build or stick to grinding lower level mobs. For WoE, 40 would be plenty since flee is nerfed on WoE maps normally.
