It's just hard unless you run 24/7 with the same people, on the same content, with the same setup.

One/two strength/intel/dex pot from any of the dps, will easily beat your entire run of +30str as oppose to 30vit. The damage potential compare to a pld is a nice boast for wars, but in the end they aren't going to be anywhere near a full DPS
Okay, what kind of content are we talking about here? And what level of intensity are we playing at? Because I'm talking about end-game min-maxing to improve your group's capacity to kill bosses and increasing the group's margins of error.

According to my understanding of my class, the bosses in the game, and just general math, an OT Warrior is given way more Vitality than he actually requires to safely withstand any burst damage he can be dealt. The best thing a Warrior can do to shed VIT for STR is to use STR accessories and/or change his attributes. I've done both. The +30 STR will be permanent. If I ever need more VIT, I equip VIT accessories.

84 Strength for 15s every 5 minutes is equivalent to 4.2 Strength on average. Seeing as 4.2 is a lower number than 30, no it does not "easily beat" it.

And that's not to say that someone specced +30 STR can't drink Strength potions.
