Full STR WAR is nothing to write off.

im at 8.3 after food buff, and if i dont get adloq + stoneskin before a DS, half the time I will get 1 shoted. So no you cant survive at 7.3.

Yea with 2.1 we'll be mitigating 20%+ every 20secs so that wont be an issue. Even without Full ilvl90 and no +, I'm sitting at 7.3k. We should have more than enough to survive it come 2.1

Full i90 with VIT acc ~8600 HP?

So Full i90 as STR WAR with Gryphon probably sits you at just under 8k

Inner Beast (20%) => Storm's Path (10%?) => Virus (15%) = Warrior won't get melted from Death Sentence

I'm pretty sure BiS Warrior will have about 9k HP. While STR war with Grypho's can have up to 8.2

^ this is with food and party buff ofcourse.

Full vit if youre going to MT is the only way to go, you can get away with 7 after all buff if youre offtank, but 2-4 snakes still hits hard as fk especially when u have 2 stacks of debuff. But there is like zero reason to not go all vit, if youre having DPS issues its not your fault.

If you die it is game over. So take that what you will.

Even without 2.1 buffs, There are WAR's tanking turn 5. Come 2.1, WAR's will get +30% Mitigation from Vegeance, +30% Healing when Mantr is up, +40% when Convalence is up. +20% DR from Inner Beast. VIT is safer, but I dont think it will be a Must in 2.1.

Full ilvl90 and Gryphonskin is 8365 with party buff and food. I get 517 VIT in this setup, but I'm a Wildwood Elezen, so you can get an extra +5 VIT on top of what I have.

Nothing is a must, but your job is staying alive and that is it whatever makes your healer life easier is what you should be doing. In fact the extra HP becomes even more valuable due to mitigation. 5% even a 10% increased DPS is not worth you accidentally dying cuz u get hit by 2 liquid chained with DS+plummet+auto.

Grpyphonskin rings are probably fine when u have 8k+. But going full str means you lose 500+ hp and I would never give that up for measly tiny increase in DPS in scope of things. Imagine all your hard work increasing your dps can be completely overshadow by an extra firestarter proc.

What's your STR sitting on ? I did the math and I should have about 450STR by the time I have full i90. Thats like 30-40 behide a full i90 Melee DPS class o.O.

Your maths is a bit out... I get 424 STR in full i90 armour and Gryphonskin, with party buff. No STR buff from food unfortunately. You could potentially get an extra 4 (or minus 2) from your race choice.

EDIT: I am VIT spec (30 VIT). If you put all 30 into STR, you could potentially get to 459
