Are the crafted accessories as viable on WAR as they are PLD?

[Grembo]

Yeah because 45 points of STR/DEX is "miniscule"

The maths has been done my friend, look it up.

Where are all the vids of WAR MT's on T5 with this uber BiS setup anyway?

If anything a gear set to specifically tank TT would be a situational set.
But still, its a moot point, there arent many videos of WARs tanking TT in the first place, no matter the gear.
I will let you wonder why :P
But i agree with you math has been done and anyone can look at the numbers and choose.

There was a video of a WAR tanking Twintania with 8200 HP, which is achievable with gryphonskin.

I know but he asked "how many" so i guess one or two videos wouldnt be enough.
Im sitting at 8300 and something with gryph gear, food and party buff.
Still i wouldnt mind 9000 if i had to tank TT, but its a very specific scenario.

As OT on 1-5 i find i90 accessories are only taking away dmg and hate (grabbing better hate with a single tomahawk isnt something to understimate) while giving me HPs i dont need: detrimental to my role.

Strangely, all the WAR's that have done it seem to be using actual tanking equips :/

I'm not saying that Gryphonskin sets don't have their uses (hey, those AK bosses are easy these days) but just giving up on tanking stuff like TT and Twin Dreadnoughts and relegating yourself to trash a DRG could probably handle doesn't make them BiS.

EDIT: Nice sig btw Maqaqa

How many videos of DRGs off tanking 1-5?
Btw you dont have to tank double dreads, there are T4 strats developed around a WAR MT that does not involve tanking both of them at the same time.
So the only fight where you NEED i90 accessories is TT. And even there, you dont really NEED them, it has been done without.
It will be even easier after the buff, when the ability to absorb 20% dmg on every death sentence will require us even less HPs to survive DS while still having a decent HP pool left for safety.

Also please notice i suggest to get BOTH accessories set. But its obvious to me one of them is BiS and one is situational.

Selection bias. Warriors may actually be better Twintania tanks than PLDs. But because no one tries it with a WAR, we don't know.

They probably aren't, but how would we know?

Unless TT uses HP percent based attacks Paladin would pretty much always be better at handlnig TT.
Selection bias is present but unfortunately, it does have a good basis.
I do hope the change to WAR changes this problem.
