Hey guys,

Now that I'm tanking Turn 5 in about ilvl87 gear, i was wondering if I had an excess of VIT. I'm sitting at 6890 HP buffed and it doesn't seem like I need THAT much health. I have all 30 points in VIT. Should I reallocate them into STR for more mitigation?

You can trade 25 Vit and 10 Parry for 45 Str (and 45 Dex, more Acc, and a load of Crit and Det) by swapping your Accessories for Melded Gryphonskins.
That'll guarantee you at least one Block Tier rise, and raise your Damage output (and thus enmity generation) by a little over 20%.

It costs a lot, but is a much better option in terms of stat gains than just plain trading 30 VIT for 30 STR. Plus you can always just swap back to +VIT accessories if you ever need more HP.
So don't redistribute your points, and instead save your gil if you want to make that kind of tradeoff...
