You can only get 50 STA from Riotous Health. 70 STA if you get Primal Essence, but that doesn't stack with Avatar. Monks will pick Avatar over Primal Essence every time.

You are correct that putting your starting stats into DEX does increase your chance of an earlier Avatar Proc for the initial proc. This benefit will be available after a corpse recovery or dispel as well.

Putting your starting stats into STA will give you a bit more wiggle room to swap out resist gear if needed without losing your capped STA, and an extra buff slot. You can use that extra buff slot for a DEX buff to get the earlier Avatar proc, and that DEX buff is better than the amount of starting stat points you get. Overall I'd say that makes STA better, unless you really want the initial Avatar proc edge after a corpse recovery/dispel.
Didn't want to call DSM out in the other thread because there's a high likelihood that he'd shit that one up too, but does he legitimately not know what VoG does?
