DEX never gets touched on because it's always VIT or STR stack debates.
We know because we've looked at parse data between WAR and PLD. i.e. http://www.reddit.com/r/FFXIVTC/comm...in_vs_warrior/ I think Cormac also posted some parse data which seemed to go along the same lines (but with smaller sample sizes).

Plus there's no reason to just assume you get higher parry rate as one than the other. And to assume that we need to stack dex would be kind of silly as well. It might have marginal returns, but it's still not a stat available on any gear intended to be used by WAR (or PLD) so the idea that it's intended seems silly to me.
