Once again STR or VIT depends on the situation and how geared you are, not to mention warrior benefits far more going full STR compared to PLDs due to damage scaling. Since T9 is clearable in i94ish it would probably be safe to assume once ure i111, you can sac some vit for more STR just for sake of speed. Though Ravensbeak hits like a truck twice so there is that.

The reason why Parry is bad is cuz it is a RNG stat and 70% of the time it is completely worthless, VIT is not the case like the previous guy stated.
