Um, now that is the question! All depends upon what you feel you need
more at the time, I guess. You want enough stamina to be able to live
through a few hits, enough threat to hold aggro and enough avoidance
to try and save the healer some mana - at high lvls avoidance is king,
lower down I'd go for stamina and strngth in the main, picking up any
avoidance I saw (which isn't too common so probably just always take
it if you see it and the rest of the stats are decent). I don't think
there's a hard rule really, just aim at whichever area you feel weak
in (so if most your dps have higher health than you, stamina, if you
find they pull aggro every few seconds, str, etc)
