    Is it still just stack str accessories or do we ever need the hp now?

    No encounter currently in game requires a high enough amount of hp to warrant the use of VIT accessories.

    That's not to say you won't need a few to meet minimum tank buster requirements for Savage though. So it's a good idea to stack up on those also just in case.

    The limited blue extreme adds hit me for 12k alone without def buff so that the amount we will be seeing on Alex or even more, with my current gear I am 15k it's make feel uneasy some time but other than that have str accessories will definitely increase your damage on outside of big hitting stuff it's alway nice to see my soul eater crit for 2.5k

    Ahh forgot to mention my ilvl I am i160

    Not gonna lie I personally feel extra squishy without vit accessories and even then sometimes.

    Carry both with you so you can swap when you need to.

    This isn't true. Having tanked both Bismark EX and Ravana EX many times, there is reason enough to use VIT accessories. You can swap out for STR depending on healers, but VIT makes things MUCH easier. You generally need STR accessories if you're having to carry poor DPS at this point.

    VIT accessories doing two of the easiest primals in the game? I don't think so.

    Titan ifrit and Garuda were harder at i90

    BIS ex allows the use of Stacked CDs for the adds so you should take very little damage.

    Ravana just stands there 50% of the fight.
