I go off the assumption that the generic cookie cutter build of priest is Base 80 int/dex/vit. Nice Balance of Survivability, Heal power and Casting speed.

Outside of the oddball builds that delve into lesser used stats like str, luk and agi on priests, pretty much most of the used builds focus at least partly into dex int and vit. What kind of build it is dictates what stats you focus more on and which stats you sacrifice from. From my understanding, most ME priests for example sacrifice a lot of their vit to Focus on Dex and int, to get their ME off as fast as possible, and to get the Force of the Gods behind their ME.

My particular tanky-priest is Mostly Vit/Int with whatever's Leftover in dex, Utilizing Angelus on top of Assumptio, and higher heals due to int/meditatio. When Maxed out, the base dex will be stuck at 42. My main concern is I'm too used to playing ME priest and having reasonably fast cast, and it's assumptio/magnificat are annoyingly slow. Don't even have Swall unlocked yet, but I could think of situations where that slow cast would seriously hurt it's abilities.
