Acc, STR, and DEX balance

So I finally hit 75 on my sam (gkatana still not even capped at level 71 thanks to level sync). I've been using Royal Knight legs (2 str, 2 dex, 3 attack) for ws. Should I switch to af legs, stick to rk legs, or use byakko haidate for ws?
 
I personally switched to the AF legs once I could equip them. Have kept them on since then. I would think for WS youre better off switching to a STR piece...........then again I dont know of any leg piece that has better stats.
 
Use RK legs until you get shura/hachiryu.
 
AF leg+1 are better as well
 
YGK are STR 75%. No other mods, so just stack STR STR STR. If you're able to stack att, consider a ratio of 5:1 when comparing how much attack you need to outweigh one point of STR. i.e. 6 Attack should (very marginely) outweigh a single point of STR for YGK. Bear in mind though that all WSs use the extra fSTR mod, which you might guess comes from your STR.

Since YGK can't crit, you don't need to stack DEX at all. And since they're single-hit, you won't need to stack much accuracy either- though you shouldn't totally neglect it. Consider that hitting 9/10 WS's with a Hauby would do more damage than hitting 6/10 with Osode, for example.

Another thing to note is your WS hits also work with STP, though nobody really cares about it I guess.

Edit...

As for the legs slot, it goes like this in terms of WS equipment:

1. Royal Knight's Breeches
2. Myochin Haidate
3. Myochin Haidate +1
4. Shura Haidate
5. Usukane Hizayoroi
6. Hachiryu Haidate
7. Judge's Cuisses
