tanks with strength accessories

[PArcher]

My base "build" for my WAR is what I run in Coil with; two (currently...I'm poor, OK?) penta-melded i110, 1 i130 STR and 2 i130 VIT accessories, DPS-built Ragnarok, all DPS-based i130 armor except penta-melded Kirimu pants (Phoenix hates me), and my attributes are 20/10 STR/VIT. Once I get the other three i110 penta melds I'll likely go full STR (assuming my WHM doesn't kill me for doing that...and I do try to listen to him, since he kinda keeps me alive during silly things like Akh Morn...) If it works in FCoB, it has to work (or be overkill) everywhere else.

Generally...I use this gear for dungeons and raids, and EX Primals; sure, I could probably use more STR in dungeons and older EXs, but I'm a bit lazy...I also err on the "safe" side in dungeons, since most people I run into there are...honestly, I don't know how they managed to get as far as they did lol. If I see that the randoms I'm with are good, then I'll adapt to them, but initially...random heals and DPS seem to just like seeing more VIT on their tanks and freak out if their HP is too low.

Trial roulette and most overworld stuff (hunts, maps, whatever)...I have an almost full i130 set of STR accessories (missing DW ring...) I use since my HP really doesn't matter there.

Back on topic; I generally don't understand full-STR PLD doing trash pulls...they spend most of their time using Flash trying to keep aggro off the Flare-happy BLM in their party. I'm fine with them going STR on bosses, since they're actually hitting things most of the time...but when Flash is your go-to button? Mix of VIT and STR makes more sense IMO. WAR...Bloodbath + Berserk + Steel Cyclone + Overpower spam...more STR = more healing, but again, you do need to have enough VIT to survive.

And no, I have no issues with hate at all on either PLD or WAR (and my PLD is more VIT-based than my WAR...and has worse weapons); the extra STR is purely for more DPS. Though it is funny seeing tanks try to take hate from me in Trials because they have more HP than me (and a good amount of these I take hate without Defiance on. GG other tank)
