Some questions about ED speced SM.

[homie]

How much value initiative has over other stats?
Does crit or the extra dmg from crit ignore armor-resistance-toughness mitigation? Does it also ignore the stats -armor penetration?
How much value does resistance has over toughness?would u prefer 75 res of x type over 22 toughness?
What is the most and 2nd most important type of resistance for order(depending on most destro classes-specs-res debuffs)?
Would you trade some of your parry-dodge-distrupt for -crit chance or -crit dmg?
How much strength is the minimum to have enough ST and dmg to be a threat?
Witch of the two SC greatswords would you take(stat wise the defensive seems way better)?
And last: about the 2 piece seal set, the defensive one seems a lot better even without a shield(7% parry dodge disr VS 7% ST and better passives).
Thank you in advance.

Crit doesn't ignore any stats; it simply increases your likelihood of landing a crit.

22 toughness is universally good, while 75 res is good versus a specific damage type that may or may not be present.

You should always invest heavily into Futile Strikes. Trivial Blows doesn't work on ROR.

You should get the Subjugator 2h sword because the speed proc > the marginal stat increase from the SC/the time investment required to get it. If you had to choose between def or off SC, then you would pick off because it has 4% crit and Swordmaster is a class who can capitalise heavily on crit.
