So basically what I am getting from this debate is that one person says since STR directly influences damage, the rogue should stack and focus on STR.

The other person is claiming that STR minimally influences damage, so other stats are more important, such as AC, HPs, etc., right?

If the latter is right, what stats are more useful then for a rogue if not STR? AC? HPs? Would it be better to put starting points into DEX or STA and not STR?
You will be hit. You will face AE. Dead Rogues do no damage. Rogues who are waiting to engage in case they get pulped from evade failures do no damage.

Ignore Str, ignore Dex, ignore Agi (as long as its over 75). Wear items entirely focused on AC with a secondary consideration to HP until you are 60. At 60 focus on HP with a consideration for Resists. Starting points should go into 25 Sta, 5 Str (if you play a race where Agi is close to the penalty level of 75, you might wanna put the 5pts there) Due to the way itemisation works in EQ, you will naturally cap Str focusing on HP items once you are raiding.
