    DEX at least provides some Crit Severity and a tiny bit of movement for QoL. CHA I dislike because its impact is so miniscule as to be even less noticeable than what DEX offers.
    Sacrilege - Warlock
    Contagion - Cleric
    Testament - Wizard
    Pestilence - Ranger
    Dominion - Paladin

    CHA is not preferred due to recharge speed, it's for the Companion Influence bonus. (.5% of 18k is around 900 stat for each category for example.)

    It doesn't really work like that. The companion influence bonus ends up being nothing.

    No, really; for giggles, I swapped a few r13 darks into one of my characters and saw a whopping 400 increase in Combat Advantage, for example. Putting points in CHA is a waste.

    Edit: .5% of 18k is 90, not 900. That’s why I’m seeing a far lesser benefit than what you were expecting.
