Rangers- AC or stats?

[Troxx]

Low end (especially soloing) the AC will make you more efficient than stats in general. Tolans before level 30 is just all around nice paired with some hp rings and enough str gear to get you to the 110-130 range. You hit harder, take less damage, and have a nice hp buffer.

At higher levels hp and resist gear if you plan on having to take damage, otherwise str stacking if just contributing damage and not really getting hit.
