Hi folks, this was an idea I toyed around with on my pariah but haven't had enough play time to see if it was actually worthwhile. Just figured I'd get everyone's thoughts. Basic premise is to take weapon finesse to get +4 DEX in legendary levels from CC barb to offset the abysmal dex pariah normally gets. Has anyone else tried this? It's not a huge difference, but I'm willing to bet there's some checks that 24 dex would help a lot more than 20. Of course the concern is that there really aren't a lot of pre-epic feats with pariah, so I just figured I'd throw this idea out there.

Yes then you can take the battle axe weapon focus line and pew pew pew arcane oozes! Err, I think it's better to save the feat, enjoy the +4 STR and become immune to pfs and the more common str checks later on.

You're pretty hard put on feats and spell selection no matter what, so it might be worth it to take it for your first two demi iterations and then reinc later without it when you have access to +16 dex, demix2 , maybe paragon level dexterity, and maybe even the azz gloves for +16 dex and +2 dex checks / UC ring if you can fit it... But STR is useful as well so trading it is pretty rough when it also wastes one of those precious feats you dont have enough even at lvl 78.
But honestly you're gonna suck on pariah until a few demi iterations and some paragon levels no matter what you do, you rely on your party performing well to be effective. This might make it less sucky in Hells, but not worth it in other endgame zones me thinks.

Base dex would be 10. At x0 you'd be around 22 and 24, failing against advespa
I'd rather go with base str 12+4. As it would be consistent.
