i am not asking which build to go with
i want to do the one with the minimum str and dx for heavy armor and rest in con
here comes the confusion
the damage dealer build says 3str 0.5 dex per level
but those are the minimum for heavy armor

so is the con build=damage build?b:shocked

    I think dmg build (PvP) is 3str 1vit 1dex per level.

    With tanker build your also gonna be following close to that but with a little extra vit and a lot less dex.
    When the going gets tough; Get a tank!

    once you fitted enough into being able to equip the latest heavy wears on, what you do with the remaining points will determine what build your going for.

    I'm not 100% sure but, as far as I know:
    - 3str, 0.5 dex a lvl is the requirement for the latest weapon (dual axes). I use this build on my barb.
    - 2.5str, 0.5 dex a lvl should allow you to wear heavy armor, but a weapon a little bit below your lvl. I use this build on a heavy foxform veno, and till now it allows me to wear the latest heavy armor.

    yeah that is indeed correct, adding 3 str and 0,5 dex each lvl is enough for gear, the rest can go into vit.
