    I prefer fending w/ str because of cost and personal preference of vit>str because that's how our group has always raided so healers can dps more. I originally chose pld because it was simple and being my 1st REAL mmo I needed simple lol I know there's tons of rotations/strategies for dps while tanking but I'm lucky enough to have super dope healers/dps that don't need my top tier damage as long as I have aggro/don't die so that's where my "I'm a tank not a full dps" comes from.(str on my accessories is aggro assistance/clemency potency)

    With Pentamelds there's no VIT>STR argument. Both Fending and Slaying have the same VIT/STR caps. The only difference is with Slaying you can cap VIT with 4 materia compared to Fending which takes all 5 to cap STR. The only reason to choose one over the other is secondary stat preference or money.
