man shoulda said that earlier.
dont scroll until u get to karstan u lvl really fast until lvl 64 anyways. then use a karstan with at least 6 60%s on it. no special equips for arans, just stack some attack gloves, cape and shoes. get dex overalls or top+bot and go dexless. the acc from zhelm and overall is more than enough to cover for a pure str build. then just get w/e u can get your hands on with attack or str on it. you can keep using that karstan until lvl 90/100. then switch to a hellslayer or better and scroll it.

as for equips, keep your old overalls until 80/90, than make your own armor and use all dex crystals(<---) important and scroll with dex. this will make sure you have enough dex for anything.
