Because mana is the size of your tank, not the rate of your regen. Unless you are breaking a huge room or trying for a hard duo/solo you won’t use a full tank of gas.
Stamina at least is a 5.5 hp conversion making every complete heal more efficient and giving a larger buffer for mobs to do burst damage.
I wouldn’t disregard WIS, it’s welcome and comes on the best gear, but would never optimize for it. As mentioned my pally has EC junk and like 1500 mana. He also has 1190 AC with the FD and 1235ish with a shield (self buffed). Even with those paltry figures I wouldn’t dump 200ac and some hps for 500 mana. Sure it’s 1400 in heals (2x celestial cleansing) but once you fire those off you’re just lacking the tank stats.
Also for what it’s worth I soloed 99% of my toons life to 60. You will have the DW helm on almost the entire time so heals are free so long as you can keep the npc rooted.

Yeah, I think I'm better suited to Dwarf here. Having low strength on a class that wears plate armor and carries a big two-hander or a shield doesn't seem smart. And Dwarf cultural has a pretty sizable Wisdom boost as well, when I eventually get it (as a placeholder for Valorium if nothing else). Besides, Dwarf has the second best Wisdom score for a Pally at 88, and not just the highest Strength and Stamina, but the highest Dex as well, for weapon procs.
ND is pretty juicy but if down to a choice between the two, I'd still rather use FD (or even FA) for access to Bash.
