Dexterity's effect on crit (and accuracy) was removed for ARR. Dexterity *only* boosts Archer/Bard attacks and Block/Parry rates. So technically it serves a function for Dragoons, but it's such a laughably small one that it's not worth it.

For attribute allocation, 30 points in Strength is optimal.
