i barely cap sta on my human pally with pretty good gear

thats with putting sta in at start, will it get better with more gear? sure
but thats a lot of time and gearing it takes for that sta not to be good thing.
you have 1 job to not die and tank things. Get all the hp you can.
edit: when i get gozz cloak ill be short again, but thats way it goes balancing and swapping in stuff to maximize ya stats, without sta at start itd be much harder and take lot higher end items to cap.
