Oh, I agree on your second point. I've got sets with STR jewelry and VIT jewelry, and if I ever collect enough alternate max-level gear to make it worth while to do a separate Parry/Vit and DPS/Vit set, I'll do that too.

But to respond to your first point, I was just trying to get across the fact that parry's the only secondary stat that you can stack to improve the reliability of the "healer autoattack", and people who say it's worthless seem to forget that.
