Question about Tank stats

[Rongway]

1 Vit = 1 Str = 0.450 AP

More accurately,

1 str = 0.45 attack power
1 vit = 1 str + 20 hp


So vit is strictly better.

When vit is capped and therefore not an option, meld str.

Does Dex still affect parry rate? Also does Dex affect evasion?

Are you seeing Vit capped with current gear? If so, how low can we have our character's base Vit to still get capped?

Meldable gear have vit caps. The crafted 220 pieces and the current blues are vit-capped, but you can still meld strength to them.

The point is
Always wear vitality gear.
Meld Strength if possible.

The stat caps are per item, not per character. Your character can go all base VIT and still not get capped on anything.
