PvP Barb: Base STR or No Base STR

Hey everyone

I believe that this is the first SERIOUS pvp barb I have ever made

Been thinking a lot about his stats/skills/items, and only one question remains:

Base str or not?

I can carry all of my items by using items only, so base str will do. How does this reflect on damage? I've read somewhere that 1pt in str is equal to 1%ed, so putting some 60-70 pts would mean about 60-70%ed, but adding some 250+life through vitality also does not sound like a bad idea.

BTW I have a WW Ebotdz/beast barb, unstatted and unskilled, lvl 82

Thanks for any insights!
