I'm using swords on my Fighter.

Am I right, that I do not even need to invest 1 point in dex?


Thanks for your help.

There is debate on this topic, personally I think it's easiest and most effective to do just that and pump all strength. Some say that you should try to keep the 75/25 ratio for better crits but personally I don't think it matters much (though I haven't done any testing on it)

I have tested it both ways, and it's simpler to just go pure Strength with swords, at least for me. You can try to tweak a little Dexterity in there if you want, and by all means add a few points to Vitality if you are tanking or need some HP, but yeah, I have just resorted to going all-STR after testing it a bunch of times. It is easier on me and I didn't notice a huge difference, Swords seem to crit pretty often for me. Grab a few +Crit glyphs, and you can really see them shine. ;)
