    The increased blocked dmg from str is maybe 1% if you fully spec it to that. The maybe being if you break the tier... if you do not it is literally no difference.

    The increase to hp is around 8-10% from Vit.

    The enmity increase increase from dmg is more or less negligible when you factor in you will be using shield oath 100% of the time while tanking. Considering the reduced dmg you deal when it is up.

    As for dex, I seen no evidence in a substantial increase to block that would beat out the 10% hp gain.

    I cannot understand why anyone would choose anything but full VIT with the way the stats are currently working.

    In the off-chance you're being serious: Absolutely not. Cure is already underpowered on Paladin and the minor increase you would get from even using all 30 points at level 50 will not make it usable in any real situation. MND is not even a considerable option.

    30 points in STR = Slight DPS increase (9 dmg per attack was it?), 1% on damage blocked ONLY if you break into the next tier.

    30 points in DEX = 1% chance to block ONLY if you break into the next tier.

    30 points in VIT = 450-500ish HP and a slight increase to in-battle HP regen.


    Take yer pick. If anything is now outdated, please post as I've been having too much fun battling 1017 lately to do research.
