- Additional parry for mitigation. A reasonable choice, although parry tiers ought to be kept in mind: http://valk.dancing-mad.com/?page_id=227. Blindly stacking to 30 could very well mean you're wasting anything from 1-30 points on strength without hitting a next parry tier, points which could have been spent on vit. Beyond that, the benefit of the 1% extra parry chance is very unlikely to outdo the benefit of the additional HP vitality gives. Especially if it means a tank is dying as overall HP is too low to absorb the hits.



Myself I currently stack full vit. I'm not convinced by the benefit of hitting the next parry tier, and beyond that with new gear pieces still coming in so quickly from tomes I do not feel like respeccing wasted strength back into vit after every upgrade.
