Just returning to my ranger after id say well over a year.Im lvl 69 Ranger and the primary stats i was going for were str, agi then int but is it better to go for int over str and agi because the Poison procs will do a lot more damage, this is for PvEThanks

Agil only if you plan to get hit.

2 stats that are <b>hugely</b> important to a Ranger are +Ranged Crit and +Ranged Double Attack.  Alot of Rangers actually look to bump these two stats first, then STR, Melee Crit, etc.

However the OP wanted to know what the most important PRIMARY stat (str, int, agi, sta, wis) was and they are in order str then int. The other three have no effect on our DPS and therefore only apply if you find yourself getting hit for some reason. Then they may hold some importance to you.

Str - Int - Agi (agi doesn't really change anything, gives us a bit of power, but... I wouldn't worry too much about it).
