Why? I mean sharing gear maybe, but come on, we have 4547656734523 different melee DPS gear sets, there's space for 2 tank sets. Or well, just let them share caster gear? It's not like they couldn't just have a mechanic that derives their defense from some other stat, the same way we'd need spells to scale with STR in your version. :P
