Will DEX help with Tradeskill skill-ups?

The main reason you want to put points into DEX is because the best way for a warrior to get and keep agro on the mobs you are fighting is with weapons that proc damage and other debuffs like blind, poison dots, snare etc etc. The higher your DEX is the more you will proc with those weapons so the easier time you will have keeping agro off the shamans and enchanters that are debuffing your mobs hehe. From what i have heard it is harder for a warrior to cap DEX then it is to cap STR or STA so that is why a lot of people recommend putting most of your starting points into DEX.

Like i said before i dont do much tradeskilling at all but i thought i had heard that DEX helps with the actual combine and whether or not you fail or succeed in making the item and your primary stats like STR, WIS, INT help with whether or not you get a skill up. I could be totally wrong about this though.
