    Does this Strength Tank strategy work well from level 1 - 59 as long as you use your cooldowns well or is this only suited to level 60 setups?

    It works at every level just fine.

    It works depending on the class and level.

    For example, warriors in defiance gain 25% more HP and 20% more healing. If you were to turn it off (pre-deliverance levels) or switch stance, then you could pop Thrill of Battle with Convalescence to gain 20% HP and healing. You would gain around the same effective HP with the same amount of healing while being in your DPS stance, as if nothing changed but suddenly you do more damage. Alternatively, you could just pop vengence while in your dps stance to achieve the same thing.

    Point being, using those big cooldowns is the main idea of how a strength tank compensates for their lack of extra padding. If you don't have such cooldowns, then it's best to play it a little safe and stay in your tank stance with some added vit accessories.
