Full STR WAR is nothing to write off.

^THIS! WAR's dont get enough praise for WP SR. WAR's may be able to do faster SR than PLD come 2.1

I hope we arent going to speedrun WP anymore after 2.1!
Enough tonberries <.<

WAR´s do WP speed run faster than PLD in 2.0

WAR agro packs with damage and PLD do most of the AoE agro with flash + some scorn.
There is no way a PLD can do it faster

although running the same dungeons over and over get tiresome, I much rather do a 10min SR over a 30min AK or CM anyday lol. The new dungeons will most likely take longer.

I'm thinking I'll probably cap Myth and Philosophy with CT runs instead, just for new and refreshing content.
+ the Daily Roulette, and Hard Modes, 2.1 is going to be amazing.

2.1 is going to be amazing.

Yea, I cant recall another MMO release so much content in first big patch. CT, Extreme PRIMALS, HM DUNGEONS, PVP, Tresure Hunting, Duty Roulette, New Dungeon, Moogle Fight, New Armor,+1 new HM fight(Ultimate Weapon), + More Story, Side Content & Questes....did a miss anything ? Tons to do.

I had this convo with someone else on a different thread. Untill we can prove this with video, PLD still holds the record with a low 8min run.

Been full STR for a long time now. Still pushing 8k HP with food/party... 900 crit BBs is worth the STR30

Nothing is a must, but your job is staying alive and that is it whatever makes your healer life easier is what you should be doing. In fact the extra HP becomes even more valuable due to mitigation. 5% even a 10% increased DPS is not worth you accidentally dying cuz u get hit by 2 liquid chained with DS+plummet+auto.

Grpyphonskin rings are probably fine when u have 8k+. But going full str means you lose 500+ hp and I would never give that up for measly tiny increase in DPS in scope of things. Imagine all your hard work increasing your dps can be completely overshadow by an extra firestarter proc.

Seeing that we will spam inner beast for most fights in 2.1, It's debateable on which will make healers life easier: With vit you have 500 more base Hp vs With STR Spec where you have 300-500 more self heal every 20secs with inner beast. This is not accounting Bloodbath and Stormpath..... Hmmmmmm.

EDIT: To add, the DPS increase with full str and gryph is far from measly. Not when i can hit 600-900 BB combo's, 350+ tomahawks/overpowers, 600+ Steel Cyclone's and 1100+ Innerbeast.

Actuall your looking at more like 100-150 more from Inner Beast with Strength vs Vitality. If it was 500 more, then no one here would be argueing against it. =P

Prior to change my highest IB was 800ish with the norm being 600. Now my highest inner beast to date is almost 1300, with 800ish being the norm.
