Im still looking to upgrade some of my gear so excuse the items with str on them :)
No, that's not.
Get Helm of the Claw, put a RED in the meta, and switch out two of your gems for agi/stam, while keeping your red sockets agi/hit for hit socket bonuses, and ignoring all others.
You should never be using a blue or red gem until you're hit capped. Well, you should never be using a blue gem period, as stam does nothing for DPS.
The only reason you socket anything except hit is because you're at hit cap or you need to activate a meta gem or a hit socket bonus.
Take my gear for example; on T6 gloves, I put a hit gem in because the socket bonus is next to worthless, and I'm still not at 343 hit (I count that as hit cap because I use hit food).
In my boots, I put a purple gem and a agi/hit gem in to activate the socket bonus, which is +3 hit. Reason being is that I have no other decent blue sockets in my gear for socket bonuses (the only other is in my belt and that's a 4 stam socket bonus), thus I socketed it there, as I need 2 purples to activate my meta gem (RED requires 2x red, 2x blue, 2x yellow... Yellow rogues have in spades, and purple counts for both, ergo only 2 purple gems needed, the rest can be yellow hit gems).
As you can see, the other purple gem is in my helm to get the 4 agi socket bonus; that's the second best place to put a blue gem in my gear.
Every other socket is hit.
