When I build tank stats I do not think about "DPS" that isn't what I am there for, I am there to stand, take a beating and keep the mob/boss from looking at the squishies that are doing the damage.

I have never subscribed to have shit tonne of HP because the healers will be wasting more mana than they need to try keep you up, look at the Warriors/Dark Knights having to rely fully on HP builds and if for any reason their gear isn't up to scratch the healer is spending most of the fight playing a yoyo to keep them up.

I run my Paladin on a mixture of Determination and Tenacity atm, I have the older mentality from games such as WoW, TOR, FW, PWI were tanks literally were built as the name suggests.

This is how I run myself, I dont follow meta, when they design these dungeons they dont have a meta in mind, they create content for everyone with some iota of skill to complete them. And Tanks will always be in the two base camps of high HP or high Defence rating.
