Wrong, if STR tanking was never intended then why did they make everything scale off STR at first eg. Clemency, Equilibrium, etc... They could have made them scale off VIT right from the beginning but they didn\\'t.
Because those attacks are meant to scale to attribute some degree of RNG to their potency. Scaling them off VIT would mean they have set, predictable effects. Nevertheless, considering SE has not only admitted they never anticipated STR tanking a thing and have gone to such measures to eliminate it... well, I'm inclined to believe them.

Parry is a stat being totally ignored but what have they done about that? It took until 3.2 for PLD to get some decent changes. SE is lazy.
Parry is useless, yes. But changing it so you could continue being a STR tank would be lazy for the reasons I've said earlier. PLD only notably suffered in 3.0 because their focus had been on the new jobs. Contrary to people's whining about PLD and MNK, both were in the first clear party for Gordias.
