[QUOTE="NotAYakk, post: 8328262, member: 72555"] Powers that use con don't always neednit to be super high. Because of monster accuracy scaling rate, a point of dex is about 10% less vs AC and Reflex damage, which is roughly 2/3 of attacks on you (more if the attack is melee range I find). A point of Con does not have a defensive benefit for a Str primary PC. Spreading stat increases 3 or 4 ways can suck. The degree of suck will be slow, however; as noted, this is a +3 total bonus we are talking about. 4e Charop does say that the barbarians real secondary stat is dex; basically, accept your rider bonusnis +2 and does not scale. But you can ignore that. If you do boost dex, your AC will reach defender levels. If you don't, it stays at melee striker levels. Always boost strength. Missing sucks; both fun and usefulness wise. Remember that 4e underprices "makr more swings" and "add damage to every hit". By paragon (L 11) someone who goes for both has a distinct edge in damage output, and by end of paragon they can easily double their damage per round over the alternatives. [/QUOTE]
