20/10 would tank forI am tired of seeing so many tanks stacked with vitality. Bosses taking forever to die.
Vitality does not increase healing done to you at all. I would rather have you doing more damage so the fights don't take forever and I run OOM. :'3
I'd rather rather you stay in your tank stance. I see people going full vitality and tanking in non-tank stance and that stinks a lot.Only switch out when your not actively being attacked.
yea this is dumb,
if tank change to STR = tank got lesser HP
some attk reduce tank HP into more than half even on VIT gear
(consider we change to STR and we die too quick i guess you will blame tank bcoz died too quick)
its game design stop complain or quit already!
its tank bussiness![]()
If only tanks had buttons that magically made them take less damage.yea this is dumb,
if tank change to STR = tank got lesser HP

its tank bussiness
If a tank can manage with just Regen/Fairy at the start of a pull, then they can wear whatever they want as far as I'm concerned. A healer constantly dropping out of Cleric's to babysit you is also a dps loss, particularly on trash pulls.
Likewise, if you as a tank absolutely need stoneskin/adlo to survive a tank buster or it will one-shot you, then maybe you should reconsider your gear. Nothing below maybe AS3/4 should be one-shotting any tank.
SE just need to make VIT the primary damage modifier for tanks already, so we can all stop debating this and move on with our lives.
When tanking for a healer that does dps very often, got vit so they can get off as much GCDs as possible before needing to top you off again.
If you're tanking for a healer that doesn't dps, by all means go full str.
My advice @ OP ? Git gud, get Raging Strikes from your Archer. Voila, 20% more deeps
Lmao I have officially died!!!! Haha if that happens I'm done healing cause this dps fest is getting a bit out of control this mnk in my static got kicked for doing 1200 dps lol eventually I just left cause things got to dps savage lol but this is a game design issue more then anything SE needs to either look at their ridiculous dps checks or fix the accessories both which probably will never be looked at imo :/
Are you kiddin' me with this right now?
Jiminy crickets, are things so bad that now it falls to the tank to make or break the DPS check?
Two slaying accessories is plenty. If your needs are beyond that then we need new DPSes.![]()
:eye roll: tanks should equip what they feel comfortable equipping to do their job of holding aggro and survival. If they can do it pure str fine, they feel better running pure vit fine, blend of the 2 fine. I currently run blend of str/vit gear on all three tank classes(trying to keep 3 str/2vit pieces). If you are having kill speed problems in duty finder, check DPS, then healer(cleric stance DPS), then the tank.
