Paladin Attribute Points

[Aresaka]

I went with 20 VIT, 10 STR on my Paladin. It makes you viable to MT and OT in any situation, and seeing as a Paladin is a CD tank rather than a HP tank, it doesnt make THAT much of a difference other than that you might want to have slightly better gear than a full VIT pally.

So the 10 STR more, can you point out what it does exactly so the OP can decide whether to sacrifice 10 VIT or not? I would like to know your reasoning too.

Another thing: "any situation", have you done Coil/Primal Ex? Would love to know how you fare!

Just theorycrafting with my pally. I was wondering how many points do you allocate in strength, dexterity and vitality. I read the description for all the stats for pally and all are useful for tanking. How do the stats for dexterity measure up in practice?

Dex is not worth getting over any other defensive stat. In terms of allocation, always go full VIT at endgame. Full STR is fine for leveling. Endgame, if you want maximum mitigation and some damage bonus, go with ilvl70 melded accessories instead of ilvl90; you'll lose out on 25 VIT (max) and gain 45 STR and 45 DEX -- a much better tradeoff than 30 VIT for 30 STR.
