Prioritizing dexterity on a SK is very narrow sighted and hinges on one specific weapon you may or may not ever see ... and a weapon in several ways outclassed by ToV drops. 15-20 more dex under the cap works out to 0.1-0.13 more procs per minute of below 255 dex on a proc that lasts 5 ticks.
190 vs 210 dex (or 150 vs 170) on an epic sk (30sec duration proc tap) will be nearly imperceptible. By the time you have epic you’ll be rolling around with shamans who can stack dex/focus to the tune of +130 your unbuffed.
Dex isn’t a bad choice but to make your decisions at level 1 solely on one weapon in the game and insisting it’s the best choice is giggle worthy. Especially when there are racial choices that at 60 give you permanent uptime healing regen 1/5 the potency of this weapon proc.
As has been pointed out, as long as you have 75 base agility you can dump your points into anything but cha/wisdom and not have made a mistake.
