Help me make my warrior

Ok so im starting my marauder to become a warrior I know theres a lot of different things going around about warriors so im looking for some input from healers or warr players etc about attribute distribution vit vs str. And anything else that you may think will help a warrior. My knowledge only extends as far as lvl 20 lancer. Also im on ps3 so links to macros would rock to/ ui setups thanks.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ing-Compendium also check the tank roles on forums

sweet thanks I should of delved deeper

if you are going to do endgame content like bahamut coil, i suggest you not to pick warrior :/ you can see the reason at tank roles forum
but 1-50 is a blast, no problem at all
i prefer vit build because str 30 doesnt really make a different

So Bahamut is the only thing people complain about on WAR?

Was gunna run WAR for 1st time tanking.
How is the HM's?

you will need top gear for titan hm but that still make the healer cry:/, the other hm doesnt really matter

so i cant even do end game as a warrior thats dumb :( they should of made monks tanks and warriors dps

but bear in mind that only applies to hard mode titan and coil at this moment - everything else frm lvl1 to 50, hardmode ifrit and garuda is fine.

also bear in mind that this is probably due to design imbalance and/or players not having found out the optimal way of playing war.

that being said, just lvl both :p u need gld at 22 at least anyway for provoke, why not try both for a while? as a tank u get into dungeons easily and lvl-ing on dungeons has been nth but fun for me!

Are you saying that it's impossible, or are you saying that it's just really freaking hard as a tank?? ;)

I just hope i dont put all my points in vit and then someone finds out warriors needed dex instead of vit lol

BC(ilvl 90) should be done after CT(ilvl 80) but with paladin MT you can do BC without ilvl 80 gear from CT... darklight is enough, as a war you can't do this simply because warrior is broken or paladin too OP

right now it seems that the sentiment is 'impossible' for coil, but a loosely translated interview with the dev seems to suggest warrior having hidden potentials *shrug*
