Mitigation is effected by STR (parry). This again works in tiers and do you really parry that much to warrant that 5hp extra you parried?

Going full VIT doesn't just mean more hp. It effects several things such as Thrill of Battle and Lustrate. Not only that your HP will tick 9hp (I think it's that) more every 3 seconds. Which doesn't sound a lot but that's 900HP every 5 minutes (which is a lot more than you'd get from a slight parry mitigation increase).
