Gearing your Primary Superstat as an AT

How high is usually desirable? 300, or 400?

I'm curious because I play an Unleashed whom is currently geared for Str ~125, Dex ~350, Rec ~70 (more than enough with Rush), and Con ~250 (I don't like investing that much in a non-SS, but I really don't have any choice because the AT is so ludicrously squishy, even with wardicator). I'm wondering if when I upgrade to the next gear tier I should go for something like Str ~180 and Dex ~300 instead.

Since the AT isn't as affected by +dmg bonus DR, and its in a dps role, it gains more scaling from its PSS than its SSS's (opposite case for Hybrids). Since Dex also affects this ATs toggle and crit rate, I'd prob stick w/ that, but some Str and Rec is still good for Deadly Aim's severity. There won't be a huge diff either way between the 3 SS's gearing, unless you go really low Dex (for some reason) and may have more energy issues (lower energy from FotT, and lower crit rate to proc it). But I'd prob get more Str if I wanted more knock resist, otherwise more Dex for more energy from the toggle and more crit/dmg boosts.

It'll ultimately depend on the AT and what ya wanna prioritize w/ it. Some ATs have pretty bad SS setups..

In my soldier AT only Dexterity rank V (in the prymary gears) and Ego rank V (in the secondary gears).
