Basics:
Enhanced Effect (EE) only helps the item it is on: i.e. Weapon (Dmg) / Armor (Def) / Cast (Dmg) / Heal (Heal)
Stat (i.e. Str & Dex) only increases the damage of the weapon type (more on this later)
Stat (i.e. Vit & Int) increases your Hit & Mana pools (only hard points, not stats from items), Vit (more Physical Def) / Int (more Magical Def) & for every 25 points +1 Regen.
Weapons have Ratios based on Strength or Dex, the higher number of the two adds more damage:
Sword = 75str/25dex ratio i.e. Strength
Club = 90str/10dex ratio i.e. Strength
Dagger = 10str/90dex ratio i.e. Dexterity
ETC.

For swords you should be using a strength charm and be statting either vita or strength.
For your armor, using an EE armor will provide significant amounts of defense, the other option is again strength.
Most of us agree for solo, EE Leather/scale/chain/plate is preferred over a strength armor.
When using monk/ninja it's a bit more split but lets not get into that seeing you arn't there yet.
the guide which i generally guide people to:
https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=82660445&f=272Also just simply puts it as:
Armor- enhanced effect > strength/dexterity
(meaning EE is better than strength or dex)
Thanks guys
