Whats the point of attribute stats?

[AkashiXI]

When you get punched by an unavoidable AoE for 6000, and you have 5900HP, you'll wish you had that extra vit. Or a competant scholar, but even competent scholars can't mitigate damage they don't know is coming.

Then meld one accessory with your BiS stats and add some VIT in there. You should never compromise your main stat for survivability unless you're a) progressing through difficult content, b) have a solo gear set, or c) you over gear the content and you're trying something new (tanking as a dps, mrd going full STR, whm in full VIT spamming med 2).
