Yes, +8 spec point in shield should give same extra block chance than... +80 dex.

Difference between Saracen and Troll is 45 dex, not 80.

It's even less than 45. Since you compared Troll warrior (dex=tertiary stat) and Sarasin paladin (dex=nothing), difference at lvl 50 is only 30 dex.
I just confirmed what u said. I meant that to get the same bonus of +8 skill point in shield with dex, you have to get about +80 points in dex. So indeed, shield spec is far more important than dex.

Aye, I figured as much :). I'm sure dex makes some difference before mob3 but after that not really. Dunno why some people are so obssessed with dex xD. Yeah, I even forgot pallies don't get dex per level. Dunno, if I wanted a high dex warrior, I'd go for a Valkyn, more quickness and way better resists than any race on mid(or in game for that matter I guess).

"He was concerned only with the naked fundamentals of life. The warm intimacies of small, kindly things, the sentiments and delicious trivialities that make up so much of civilized men's lives were meaningless to him. A wolf was no less a wolf because a whim of chance caused him to run with the watch-dogs. Bloodshed and violence and savagery were the natural elements of the life Conan knew; he could not, and would never, understand the little things that are so dear to civilized men and women."

well according to my calculations every 10 dex earns you a .5% chance to block and so does every spec point; which agrees with Hulks finding on 80 Dex = 8 Spec = 4% increase

better to add MOB as its a straight % increase to the total block chance in either case.

Are you sure that having in shield spec 42+X = 51 and 50+X = 51, is way more effective?

Yes, there is no skill cap like ''51'' for block rate. You can have 50+22 at RR12 and it affects your block chance. 51 comp shield skill maximizes your minimum shield style dmg, that's all.
