    Warrior Allotment

    I am very confused on this one because I have hear many saying and counter saying. So personally I was figuring that Vitality would take the entire pool. But Then I have been told to go Strength and then Vitality.

    I just don't know anymore! I am sorry if this was already a thread, but I looked into the forum past threads and I did not found answer to this.

    As for now I rock half Vitality and half Strength my warrior. Am I doing the right thing?

    The standard warrior this cap is strength build, with a mix of str/vit accessories. You should strive for 16-17k hp pre-Defiance and stack strength with what you have left. That's general consensus I feel.

    Most people will tell you to go full STR on both attribute points and accessories. I tank 90% of fights in Deliverance with full STR, including A1S, A2S, and A3S, and even I would recommend playing conservatively. If you are learning Warrior or progressing on a fight you are unfamiliar with, I would value that extra VIT over STR. Take one or two fending accessories until you are more comfortable with Warrior and the fight or dungeon.

    {Edit}
    Gonna add a little explanation for why people, including myself, recommend using a lot of STR over VIT once you are comfortable.
    Warrior's entire toolkit has great synergy with itself and your STR value. Bloodbath, Inner Beast, Storm's Path and Equilibrium are all great ways to heal yourself and all scale with STR. Berserk scales with STR too.

    It depends on where you are in the game. I say rock Strength leveling up for faster questing. Keeping your gear mostly up-to-date should give you enough HP to survive dungeon encounters, but if it's your first time in those dungeons, you might enjoy the breathing room of extra HP from stacking Vitality.

    At lvl 60, it's as people have said: If you're consistently clearing content without more than one or two emergency HP moments, you have enough HP and should stack Strength. For many lvl 60 tanks, gear quickly hits a point where you have enough HP, and so I feel that stacking Strength is very, very common. For Warriors, I would argue it's mandatory, as their self-healing (the Job's bread-and-butter difference) is dependent on it.
