My point is already articulated. HP is king. The consensus on everybody who came before you agrees. Look at you. You're arguing that 4 STR is a good investment. 4 STR is a negligible amount of STR. You're already over the STR soft cap. A STR buff from a druid or shaman would put you over 255, so that 4 STR is wasted, anyway.
You are out of your league here. I'm not obligated to explain the basics of this game to you, and you are obviously not a person who can learn them even if I tried.
So keep thinking that your 4 STR is better than 5 AC and 40 HP. Keep thinking the stats on your boots are well balanced.
I just hope I never have to play with you in game.

I can tell you from experience that in any normal solo/group situation, I am not losing more than 2000HP per encounter, unless something goes so horribly wrong and there is a wipe. We are NOT talking about raiding, which an SK should never do, and this thread is not about raiding to begin with.
In this situation, whether buffed or unbuffed, I am at least 800HP from dying at all times. Having 840HP vs 800HP makes no difference in that situation. However, my character is NOT DEX capped, even with Focus of Spirit + Mortal Deftness. This means I am slightly increasing my proc rate, as opposed to doing nothing.
Obviously STR gets easily maxed in a group, but we are talking about Solo + Group, not just Group
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Not everybody runs around with full buffs all the time when soloing. When you are no-where near dying (which is most of the time in solo or group scenarios), max HP is doing nothing for you.
If you or your group is consistently wiping, the issue is with what you are fighting and your group comp/skill level, not your max HP. If you are losing something like 90% of your total life in an encounter consistently, that is simply a high risk encounter to begin with, and you probably shouldn't do it if you don't want a high risk of death.
