    However, strength actually makes the fight shorter by giving you more damage. This making the fight not last as long and killing things faster.



    Vitality is pretty much "Training Wheels", once you know how to ride your bike (tank good) take them off. All your doing is making the healer's job harder for no reason.
    Lol this guy. Instead of training wheels you add a third wheel for STR tanks. You still look awful on it. Anything a STR tank can do a VIT tank can do equally the same.

    Except DPS. Whereas everything a VIT tank can do a STR tank can do equally the same, but he can have good DPS at the same time. Just an exception for savage content where you must have a minimum VIT threshold to sufficiently survive big hits before focusing on STR, thus making hybrid builds the most optimal option.

    "Hybrid" not straight STR. So the argument of STR > VIT is moot because you need both in the long run. Situational events. But dungeon running for experts, it matters not what you roll. It gets mowed down either way. No need to nit pick.
