Do I need to put 25 points into strength for a stave rogue build to 71 or is all dexterity good enough to get me to 71 solo with 3 ep and such?

And if it needs strength please explain why

Thanks

All dex will do better than str for stats. You only get 1/3 as much damage for str pts compared to dex pts and the amount of crit you gain won’t make up for that unless you’re at very high dex values. If you got some bonus str on gear that you don’t have to sacrifice dex for though, it’s help :)

My gear has no added strength or dex (just ee and ml)

Just go pure dex unless using a 60+ dex charm and armor, then you might want to try some strength and see if it helps or not (i'm skeptical and expect pure dex to outdamage strength even with this sort of gear)

So for you, just pure dex is fine :)
