    OP must be a VIT tank with 0 knowledge on using tanking cooldowns appropriately.

    If you need all that extra HP because you don't know how to actually use your cooldowns at the right time I suggest learning your job a bit, but if you haven't learnt that by Lvl60? ouch ><

    It's snotty people like this that are the reason why I quit tanking. How about just letting people play how they're comfortable already

    I've no comment on the topic, because I don't think it needs discussing in honesty.
    However: A dead anything does zero dps. I see no reason why you had to include this in your statement.

    Because just playing how you're comfortable doesn't help you or other people. You should always be doing your best and trying to do better and go faster.

    A lot of people seem to be comfortable with pressing 123 and neglecting debuffs and DoTs, but that doesn't mean they aren't bad at the game.

    ..This has been done to death. I haven't come across a healer that has shat their pants from me being full STR..I mean after all, I have 18K HP as it is. Even with that much I use my self heals as much as possible to take the load off the healers(convalescence use especially).

    I have healed full STR tanks THAT DON'T use their CDs. Those are the worst ever. So yeah a STR tank is great, in the right hands.

    The reason people are so snotty is quite frankly, the holier than thou attitude of the OP who is gonna come in here and set us all straight, when they obviously have no clue what they're talking about.

    You know you're saying this on a thread where the OP is literally telling people not to play how they're comfortable, right? RIGHT? Do you NOT see your own hypocrisy?

    You do know that Flash scales off attack power, right? Also, there is no taunt in this game, only Provoke, which puts you at top aggro + 1, so therefore doesn't do anything at all for helping you KEEP hate. You do know this... right? Otherwise, we're going to have to call into question why you're talking about things you don't understand.

    But if I don't stack strength as a DRK those healers are gonna have a rough time when I pop Living Dead and need all my HP healed. And more STR means stronger Souleater heals. And less general health means I can heal those sissy attacks and the healer can do other stuffs.

    Stack VIT if you want to die later.
