I've experimented with the fhr breakpoints in the past, couldn't tell a difference. A good connection is more important imho. As for stats, I had mh back when I ran the original tourneys and could see everyone's stats. There was no clear advantage as long as your equipment matched your build.

I know a few guys who always overdexxed quite a bit for the ar boost. But these days I don't think it's necessary since with visionary + angelics you're already at around 27k or so which is more than enough imo. It's sort of lame to always suggest just enough str/dex to wear your gear and maintain mb but I think it's best bet with the current vis setups. Nothings set in stone and there are others who probably do over str for more dmg or over dex for higher ar but I just personally shoot for maximizing vit these days.

it's generally not worth it to stack str or dex beyond your gear requirements.
+1 dex = +5 attack rating
+1 str = 1% enhanced damage (1.1% if you are using certain mallets.)
+1 vit = 3 life
Generally vit is always the best choice.
That being said, it's good to keep in mind that str and dex contribute those bonuses.
Non tap SA prud is pretty much the best armor all day. and your 222 str is 222% enhanced damage, don't forget.
thank you all for the valuable input! :smile:
let me experiment a bit for some non-max-vita builds... to match my final gears setup.
i really wished they went ahead with the patch that was supposed to combine all 8 characters' stashes together into tabs that be accessed on any of the 8 chars, would make so much more flexibility in gearing.
but then again, tourney would need to set strict gear swap time limit otherwise we would wait while others take their time choosing...
