Leveling; build for survivability?

[Simaril]

You can get as much VIT as you wish, a healer can't tank a lv50 instance. Don't think about tanking, think about healing.

If you read the TITLE of the thread it's about leveling, not 50.

or if Scholar dpsing.

But if you had to tank every Boss the chances are very good the aggroproblem is not tankrelated. If you are just spamming Medica the tank cant do much about it unless he is quite overgeared.

I do lots of instances... and have done every boss avaialble at level 30 like 5+ times. I've ended up tanking most of them ONE time -- usually because the tank goes from full HP to 0 in less time than it takes to cast cure, or they have no idea how to generate threat at all.

Really - it seems to me that good tanks are easy to heal, and bad tanks are impossible to heal. Stacking Vit might be approprate for both circumstances.
