if you use axe, a lot of people prefer to just mass STR. I would recommend adding your first 10 to VIT, to increase your overall HP, and then do one of the following:
if using axes, stat to STR
if using swords or other weapons, get dex to ~110-120 WITH gear, then rest to STR.
so if you have a charm that adds 20 DEX and armor that adds 20 DEX at lvl 55, your base dex should be around 70-80.
hope this helps, any other questions just PM me!
