Any research into WAR DEX?

[Terabyt3]

Not to dismiss your tests or anything but you do realize that even if you can get Parry relatively high (say 30-40%) it's still not reliable in any way shape or form, and honestly would only be directly comparable to Shield Blocks from Paladin. It's all well and good to block sustained attacks frequently and reduce the damage by ~25% but when that big hit comes and you fail the parry check, what do you do then?

I'm only talking about the effectiveness of VIT vs. DEX/Parry over sustained fights (Majority of battles in game) not counter burst damage.

How does a PLD counteract a burst damage? I'm not wised up on the class all too much but as I understand they have 1.5k~ less health, rely on block and parry to avoid damage and pop cool down pre emptively to counter big hits?


Whereas a WAR seems to answer reactively to big hits. I.E. their cooldowns and larger HP pool allow them to take a hit and then heal themselves.




This whole DEX/VIT discussion is ONLY about the 30 bonus points right now. And main comparisons like i say are in sustained combat.
