Agility is not worthless. Higher agility directly effects avoidance skills like Dodge. The higher the AGI, the more likely you are to Dodge.

Wrong. 100% Wrong.
The higher your AGI, the more likely you are to get a Dodge skillup.
A skill's governing stat affects the rate at which that particular skill increases. The governing stat for defensive skills (Dodge, Block, Parry, Riposte, Defense, etc) is Agility. The governing stat for weapon skills (1hs, 2hs, 1hb, 2hb, h2h, piercing, ranged, throwing, etc) is Dexterity. The governing stat for offensive skills (Offense, Dual Wield, Double Attack, Bash, Kick, etc) is Strength. The governing stat for rogue skills is Dexterity. The governing stat for monk skills is Agility. Increasing a stat does not inherently improve skills that it governs, only your chance to receive those skillups.
A higher agility value does decrease the rate of run speed loss as you drop to critical hp values.
