Of course, one of the bigger issues is that the DEX/STR add such minor amounts to your parry/block rate that it's effectively negligible. It takes something like 30 STR to even see the slightest change.
I had a feeling that might be the case. I had read about the STR stack, wasn't sure if DEX stack would be the same if not worse.

Thanks for taking the time to explain it.
