As a cleric, I'd say the opposite. Health swings aren't huge enough that I have to worry about a tank dying before I can react, so I don't care about health until 39 - until then, I care about AC. At 39, added health means added mana each CH cast. And at the higher end, +strength won't avail you, your dps is horrid regardless and most of your aggro comes from procs. You're much better going for dex - re str: a certain amount of aggro is given each hit, and then on top of that for the damage. Losing strength barely changes your hits (think 1 attack per strength), it more effects your damage.

I was thinking about this today, actually. The damage mitigation via AC is quite nice now (since that was fixed), and you don't really need massive amounts of HP as a main tank until PoSky, where damage mitigation thru AC simply won't work because of the levels of some of the mobs. What i'm getting at is you may be better off going for dex/AC and some stam/hp thrown in there rather than looking for the best +hp items in-slot as a main tank.
