I use STA and AGI. Probably doesn't matter much. I'd use 2 AGI if I didn't like the STA debuff for rare soloing. I think anything that helps avoidance now is a big bonus and more AGI helps a bit. Little by little I have worked my way up to about 62% avoidance and I do notice a difference. STR? Never much cared since I rarely solo.Just my 2cp..<div></div>

In every situation (solo, group, raid) I think the mitigation debuff (sta) is better than the attack speed debuff (str).For the second slot, there are a few other options than hex doll... The Idols of Zan Fi have 15 str, sta, agi, wis, int depending on which you choose. Then there are the Claymore rewards with 14 STA and 14 INT (pretty much near the end - from the quests in HoF).Personally I still use the music box from the DoF quest (Shimmering Citadel and Poet's Palace harvests). It has 5 STR/STA/AGI/INT/WIS and 25 HP/Power. A nice sum imo.</div>

<div></div><div></div>I always used to use STA doll x 2  for soloing (mit debuff is nice) and main tanking.  I pull those out now only for tanking hard content (doesn't happen often).  I focus more on STR gear now, and use STR doll x 2.  I like to DPS as much as I can.* edit:  most groups do not have the patience for you to actually debuff with a Hex doll.  It's too slow and usually not worth the time.  I don't even bother hex doll debuffing when soloing unless I am expecting a very hard fight.  I guess level 70 and AAs have made it easier so I don't worry about it much anymore.  The dolls are just easy to get stat boosters with some rarely used utility.<div></div><p><span class="date_text"></span><span class="time_text"></span></p><p>Message Edited by countjackula on <span class=date_text>12-28-2006</span> <span class=time_text>01:59 PM</span>

I have my lvl 60 guard sitting with about 200 wis... I don't know if WIS helps the the resistance check but it does boost actual resist numbers... because of that my two main stats on my guard are Stam then Wis and with crappy gear I'm sitting with 2k-3k resists on all types unbuffed and for T6 those are good numbers and I resist most things sent my way...
