WARRIOR STATS ALLOCATION

[mythicrose]

I've done everything as a 30/30 STR spec warrior except Coil 2 (My main job is dragoon). A few complaints on Leviathan Ex my health pool was "low", but outside of that no issues. I don't see 30/30 STR being much of a problem in Coil 2 either (up to turn 8 anyway...haven't tried 9 yet).

Rafflesia doesn't hit particularily hard. Melisune and her adds aren't too terrible (unless offtank winds up with two dancers). Avatar would be tricky for a solo, STR spec tank, but I believe it was SE's intent for this to be a two tank encounter that the players found a way around. STR offtank + STR accessories can do well here.

Rafflesia doesnt hit that hard but the Super Slug definately does. Our OT WAR gets demolished everytime he winds up as OT during P3. We have recently just decided to do a tank swap during LeafStorm in order to have me (PLD) deal with the SuperSlug so i can HG.

Is this common? Do any of you guys OT as WAR during Super Slug? Or is it pretty much a PLD's game at that point. Our WAR put up everything and the kitchen sink and still gets dusted (Thrill, Mega Vit Pot, Vengeance, Forsight, sitting at 15k+ HP).

Is it not possible or is it a healer ballgame to keep him up?

We just burn Rafflesia down. Our warrior keeps emnity on the small slugs with steel cyclone, flash, etc and will also attack Rafflesia as possible. The paladin will use hallowed ground roughly when the four vine chain happens to put less strain on the healers.

Thanks for the tip i'll def use HG around that time. As far as OT War Super Slug method is that pretty much a nogo? The Burn strat is nice but i've heard its harder to beat the enrage than the Super Slug.

What we do is have our paladin off tank, we found out that the 10 stacks build up rather slowly so we have the dps burn on raffle then (so paladin can grab hate at his own pace) when its time to nuke the ever living daylights out of the slugs we have everybody transfer damage onto that slug when it goes super and he HGs.

I as the static warrior just handle the burst damage of swarm from raffle with inner beast and I can do it quite comfortably. On the third phase there's no tank swap required. Basically slug does a lot of constant damage which paladins are better at dealing with and raffle at that point does burst damage which warriors are better at dealing with.
