Strength Tanks

[Ninster]

I feel torn in the middle of this debate, because I don't main any of the tanks, yet because of completionist tendencies I went through the process of leveling tanks and went VIT. I've played a little in unsynced solo runs with STR vs VIT and noticed a difference, but I don't quite feel comfortable enough to take the gamble in running relevant content in STR. So, at the risk of adding fuel to the fire, what should I do when, in the future, I end up leveling tanks again (or doing the Anima weapon quest or whatever)? I do try to do my best as a tank (cooldowns, rotation, etc), but being that one player that levels everything, I can't guarantee a level of competence with STR. So do I roll STR accessories anyway and hope for the best, or switch when yelled at, or what?

Rolling with a mix of str and vit jewelry works fine if you're hesitant to go full str. We are also on the same server, I'd be happy to discuss these things with you in-game too if you like

STR will make it easier to keep threat, but you'll sweat the healer a little more. Healers that can't keep up will make you regret your life decisions, but bad healers are going to wipe you if you're full VIT, too.
