    Based on my understanding of the tier system, this is correct. 30 STR will allow your Blocks to block for ~1% more and Parry to parry for ~1% more, assuming those points push you over a tier. If they do not push you in to the next tier then they are giving you 0 mitigation. It all depends how close to a tier you are, but in general it is not worth it.

    As to the 5.8k, it is highly unlikely you are going to be surviving the later phases of Turn 5 with that little base HP, assuming you are MTing. I have that being our off-tank and I am frequently within a sliver of being one-shot through cooldowns.

    My pld is 30 vit, and I block 26%, doesn't look like 30 vit is doing much.

    I block and parry about 30% sometimes it goes as low as 27 and other times i've seen it at 32...but on average it's a pretty steady 30%..but I only went 15/15

    The Block Parry percentages don't vary, they are always the same given your base stats, and your shield stats. So that assertion gives me doubt about your statement.

    Personally, my PLD was 15 Vit / 15 Str. With Full DL, and a Darksteel Scutum my blocks were 30%. Note always 30%, that number doesn't change at all. Parrys were lower, if memory doesn´t fail me they were around 26%.

    On Titan I swaped to 30 VIT, that gave me more HP (improving my healers stoneskin and regens) and I only lost 1% on my blocks, 29%.

    Now with relic shield +1 my blocks go for 27%, but they occur more often than with my old Darksteel Scutum.

    That PLD tank in the screenshot has a little less than that to be sitting at 5.8k. At least one or two pieces of Amdapor Keep gear.
    Can you do math correctly, sir? I mean, can you see correctly too?

    He's literally wearing the Amdapor Keep chestplate in the screenshot.

    I don't know, can you see?
