Balancing Crit & Dir vs Over melding Crit or Dir

[HexTechBomber]

So I want to start with that I'm currently delving from my Level 70 Warrior that I have into another class to spread my interest and roles out. Right now I'm working on getting Samurai to 70, it's currently now at 60 utilizing 270 augmented shire gear on the left and main hand, and proto ultima earrings, neck, wrist, ring with an augmented shire ring.

Now the important question here is what is more beneficial, keeping Crit and Direct Hit at about roughly the same number for the optimal Critical Direct Hit or melding more Direct Hit or Crit because of the ability of Direct Hit to happen more often than Crit?

Now some people may say that this isn't necessarily best because you'll replace gear in about 2 levels. I'm trying to avoid doing that by saving money since it's not necessarily a main class.
