I'm actually building a zeal/vengence paly right now. I've got a few well-off friends so gear isn't really a problem--but what I have trouble with is determining stat points.
I figure, you need enough strength to wear your armor; no points in energy. So that's pretty simple. But how do you determine how much DEX you need, versus VIT? They both work towards keeping your character alive, but in different ways. VIT provides a pool of HP to soak up damage. DEX prevents damage from happening via bonus to shield block and (to a lesser extent) defense rating.
Is there a calculator (or equation) out there which would help me figure out a goal for DEX so I could know how much to pump VIT?
Thanks
