Fending Accessories Strength Gain

[Nedkel]

Does 1 str and several vitality points are worth those 76 points of crit/det/dh?
Lets take for example ryumyakku necklace and crafted necklace, the ryumayakku has 18 vit more, 1 str, 133 det, 93 crit, where crafted brings skillspeed and only 86 determination, there is no point in getting crafted am i right?

As DRK i want as less skillspeed as it is possible, since i dont benefit from it so much as i do from det or crit. It does not affect my CD's, only 1-2-3 combo and maybe quietus, but thats not too much.

I believe it all depends on who are you playing and how.
At least necklace is not worth pentamelding. :f

It's a relatively minuscule difference either way. Vit aside, you're gaining 1 str for -58 secondary stats. Skillspeed may not be great for Drk, personally I don't think a little bit hurts for practical reasons, but the secondary stats would be "worth" more than the str. Plus, it's cumulative in a way. If you have all 5 pentamelded pieces you're looking at +290 in secondary stats compared to +5 str from raid/tome gear.
