It's not the gear, its the miseducation on what a good tank is. That's the real issue at work with any squishy tanks.
I agree, what I meant was that because people say stacking STR good, VIT bad for tanks, new tanks that don't know what their doing/don't have the skills unlocked to make this work yet go in to dungeons without the necessary health buffer to allow for mistakes. So ultimately yeah, it's an education thing exacerbated by a meta that demands every role maximize DPS.
