    @ ryel

    I wasn't finished but at least from my experience there has been a raise in str geared tanks since the release of Alex savage due to the dps check on AS3 i believe, so to compensate for damage tanks been gearing in str.


    nothing i stated was about the debate as i don't follow it, it was based on my observations from playing as a healer on and off since launch of 2.0 vs now. Which went from tanks gearing in vit in 4 man content to gearing in str in four man content. Which tanks gearing in str has been a product of parser use as not hitting the number for the dps check..

    I don't blame the fact of the dps check as due to SE been doing dos check in their games since ps final fantasy.


    And personally speaking as a healer tank i rather over compensate vit for an "oh shi" moment then act as a psuedo dps. cuz shi happens lol, the dps are suppose to be the main attackers tank suppose to soak up the damage, more hp a tank has got more hit they can take less cures they need so the healer could help with dmg or catch their breath a bit. (this is my personal taste but i also balance my bonus state points out and use food to balance my damage out.)
