Strength Tanks and You.

[Lexxuk]

This is a hangover from 2.0, when we tended to easily outgear even the most difficult content and could pull several groups, people demanded the tanks run in STR, now the mobs hit a lot harder, have a lot more HP and the mentality from 2.0 carried over. Cept for me, I never bothered with STR, I'm a tank, my job is simply to hold hate so the DPS can go balls to the wall without worrying about a mob eating their face off, the more HP I have, the more of a safety margin for the healer, that's basically it, I leave the DPS to the DPS and just focus on making sure all the mobs are trying to take my virginity..... again.

Yup I hold the same mentality as you.
