    Yes, this debate is useless because the full STR pros are never gonna accept that other tanks are not them, and they can't dictate how other tanks should gear.

    Yes, if you're running Alex Savage, maxing out tank DPS is necessary with current gear levels. If you're not, it's not required for the instance in question, and it's all a matter of the tank's own preferences.

    Nah I'll accept that. ;x I'm more on the wall about healer DPS as that's actually a considerable increase due to the fact you pull in a entirely new source of damage. Even if a Tank is full Vit, their still contributing to some type of DPS, them staying on their feet and having enough cushion if they can't handle cool downs for the healer to DPS imo is better in 4 man dungeons.

    Probably. But you can do aggro management now. Think almost every class has a means to lower or transfer their hate to someone else now, which is good for newer tanks or tanks that have problems keeping hate (their out there)

    Yeah I know ^^ Just like how some VIT tanks agree that there's a point to stacking STR but that they prefer not to do that, for whatever reason they have. It was mostly just an equally adamant response to the post above mine ^_~

    (Plus... It doesn't really matter what the 'truth' is regarding STR vs VIT. Because outside of top raids, which isn't done with a PUG anyway, it really is all a matter of what the individual people want. If a DRK wants to stack STR (or VIT) accessories with PIE melded on them for longer Darkside, that's up to them to do. Of course, it's equally up to the people meeting said tank in DF to accept that or not; if they don't, they're free to leave the dungeon =) Or vote-kick, if their opinion should happen to be in the majority. Trying to force other people, strangers, to play the game your way is in my opinion unacceptably rude.
    Note: "your" isn't referring to you of course, Seku ^^)
