Str/Dex. :)
Strength/Dexterity for me too I guess! I'm soloing on my enchantress and have not accumulated 1 death so far. Mind you I'm not that higher of a level yet... :tyrannosaurus:
IMO pure dex

I'd choose str/dex cuz without tiki god set im able to beat a full dex bird with tiki god set!
IMHO, I've played both Full Dex and Warbird styles (mind you, I'm a PvE only player). I wholeheartedly enjoyed the full dex build, until about lvl 55-60ish. At that time I started to die alot more than before. I picked up on the trend quickly and noticed that, although the Strength Stat doesn't add a whole lot to the package defensively (it does add plenty of HP, a little dodge and a little defense), the Strength-based GEAR gives dodge, HP, and defense in payloads...
So now I'm a Warbird. I carry a full Crafted Sanguine Longbow set (lvl 65), so I can still go DPS. However, now I can carry a full plate set, a dex set with wing, a strength set with shield, and mix-and-match for greatest personal effect. If I have a good tank I'll go pure Dex set and DPS as much as I can. If I dont? I'll switch to Strength gear and tank damage myself.
tl;dr - I like Dex/Str.
I think its just up to you, me myself im a pure dex but, if ur thinking of greater armor do str/dex , but if ur thinking to kill faster it would be pure dex. But i would recommed pure dex
It's all about what you prefer.
I would say, try both and see what best suits your style.
Dungeons 55-60 are nerfed now so enemies do much less damage than before. Fang and endgame are tougher. However for Humania full dex should be OK defensively:
1. If you have Angelic sets (req: lvl 66), the dex one gives +16% dodge, +213 armor (total should be about 24 dodge, 220+ armor) which is good enough for Humania.
2. With Sandskipper set you get about 19 dodge and a total of 165 armor. These should keep you safe if you make good use your x-bow's range.
For Fang I agree that what CombatPastor describes is the best option, especially if you don't have the privilege of playing with a good tank all the time. Mixing str armor/helm with bows/talons makes a lot of sense, then you get a good balance between self-protection/damage output. This applies to Humania too if you don't have Angelic and you find Sandskipper too expensive.
In general, full dex requires more experience/skill but damage output is rewarding. Observe how your team plays, if they just aggro everything they see or scatter a lot, stay back and wait for the situation to clear a bit. Dex/str is much more comfortable to play especially if you usually find yourself in public unhosted games.
Pure STR for birdies, pure DEX for mages, pure INT for bears!!!
