So this is my takehome message from this topic so far:

- There's no consensus on what a true BIS setup is, unsurprising as its situation dependent but most posters here assume a raiding standpoint.

- DSM pointed out there is an AC softcap but did not prove that AC despite diminished return isn't the stat to go for in any tanking or solo scenario.
If you are raid pulling anything above a dark blue con your AC above a certain point isn't going to matter that much but having max stam giving you as many possible hps as you can get might matter for a bigger mend that could save your life. Putting all your opening points into stam makes it easier to gear to a point of either maxing stam with your own shitty self buff from velious pants or not needing a stam buff at all which is great. You save time and possibly mana for yourself and the shaman that doesn't have to stam buff you.

Similarly if you are a monk and you're actually gearing for AC you're doing it wrong. Anything over about 1300ac in raid gear is great but not necessary to sacrifice other stats for.

Abashi over 1 handers all the way.
