It depends on which class you play. For example, Dexterity is definitely more important for a Rogue but for a Warrior it's Strength.

It can also help if look in which forum a thread is started, Big C :p

Accuracy is a tricky one - it really helps over come a level difference (ie when the cap was 55 and there were the Giant Guardians at lvl70, only Priests with their really high macc. from Wisdom could hit them at all). But Warriors have no real issues with accuracy in PvE and we don't stack any Dex at all - PvP is obviously a bit different.

Accuracy doesn't define if you hit or miss - that is defined by your weapon skills (I think for Scouts mostly by your mainhand skills not ranged - go figure). Accuracy is measured against your targets dodge to see if they dodge or not. Important in PvP, not so much in most cases for PvE.

For PvE the most important thing is physical attack, and so you will get the most by stacking both dex and str, which will also give you more than enough dex for nearly any purpose.

In general terms, dex is more useful than strength for a Scout, but once you have enough you don't really need any more.

Edit: and as he (xMagus below says), Swiftness (dex increasing passive skill) also nods towards dex.

Seeing how this was posted in the scout section I am gonna assume your a scout, we get a % increase from Dex making dex a lil better to stack in terms of patk gained however both Dex and Str have the same ratio 1:1 (1 patk gained per 1 point of dex or strength)

Hope this can be of some help to you.

It also helps to know your other classes. If you have a rogue, I'd dex stat over str for sure. If you have a warrior I'd lean str just for flexibility if you want to swap classes etc. Just a thought.

Just stat 2/2/2 str/pa dex/pa and stam/pa all etern and bygone Max pa you can get and 11-12k dex unbuffed is more than enough for accuracy. Should see how many ppl qq at me for doing that on my rogue

Such an obvious mistake and one I've ribbed others for too - how embarrassing...

Go S/W and your hp problems will be solved Master of Survival ftw! S/K for epic siege tank or S/R for debuff machine and good dps or S/Wd for pro single target. But you should probably stick to all patk stats try not to use dex/hp and dex/stam unless u absolutely have too.

I don't put str on my scout, even though I'm s/w. It currently is fine, but I'm *hoping* that they'll fix scouts pretty soon, which should include some adjustment to our dex calculation (maybe 1.5 or 2 pa per dex . So currently they are about the same, but it takes me a few months to fully restat, so I'd rather be safe than sorry... and dex doesn't hurt me. If str/pa stats were a lot cheaper and easier to find, then I'd probably feel different.
