To STR or not to STR

Well, I recently decided to try out an AGI/INT spec even though I'm in the MT group. I definitely notice a difference, but my highest ZW is still under 1k (was like a 975). Still no EoF loot since we're still coming back from a break, but should get some soon. Using Tarinax hat, Grizzfazzle's, Necromantic Orb, Misty Protector, BCG as proc gear.

I saw Pinski's post about STR being useless for enchanters, but I really wonder how it would play out with the right gear. What kinda numbers would I need to get my STR up to in order to make it worthwhile? I like INT, but it sucks when I need to use channel (No crystal gift yet). Will the DPS be even remotely close going from INT to STR with the right gear?

Unless you can get the ideal gear, Here, STR line will net you a lose of DPS, since you won't be able to use a 2Her.

Now, if they were to remove the restriction, a good 2Her and STR line could easily compete with INT line for a coercer at your gear quality.
