DPS is the job of DPS.

How? Hroudig said they both mitigate damage. How would Tank 2 be easier to heal?

Simple Tank 1 will have less health than tank 2 because they're using str over vit. though honestly the whole thing would be moot if they'd just make vit increase tank damage again.

Do you...have any clue what you're talking about? lol

Tanks can't equip STR accessories past Lv60, and the strength that tanking gear gets past that makes the loss in not equipping the Lv60 gear not worth it.

The only reason why this is a thing is because some people think that Square Ex is infallible (see ff14 1.0 ppl). It can make mistakes, SE is made up of people.

It's obvious that some content is not properly tuned.
For a min just step out of your comfort zone and realize that the developers of the games are not gods. You are not leet for banging your head against the keyboard long enough to get the clear. The content is not even worth the time.

My personal opinion is a DPS race and hopscotch (avoid the fire) game-play is boring and lazy. They seem to be adding more not less of such game-play.

Tanks can’t use STR accessories after level 60. Level 63+ tank accessories are all locked to Fending.

Yes, tanks meld STR on the right side, but only because it's already capped with VIT. VIT increases tank DPS just as much as STR at the moment (and also provides additional HP).

materia people gods cant believe i need to explain the obvious.

What would you think would be the "obvious" solution to these tanks melding instead of STR?

Tank accessories are already capped on vit, so melding vit into them won't be beneficial at all.
