STR tank items :C

[CGMidlander]

All these replies on this and the other thread ignoring the 1 big thing: they shouldn't have to.

1. if it all won't matter due to us moving on to higher ilvls...then it shouldn't be a problem to allow this

2. and if it does matter at all, people who have been playing tanks as the content dictated shouldn't be penalized for it

I'm kinda surprised the big announcement didn't immediately follow up with "oh yeah we'll let slaying/fending accessories get exchanged for those who want to".

3.0->3.15 has been out for a very, very long time. All the tanks I know finished their STR and VIT accessory sets ages ago. Heck, even I have a VIT set, and tanking is something I do as a tertiary role. (I'm primarily Monk, secondary Machinist)

As for newer players, having to farm things out isn't a new concept for newer players. All they have to do to get their accessories in 3.2 is farm a couple hours since esos are going to be uncapped.

The only people who lose out are those who let things drop on the ground, which isn't a smart idea regardless of whether or not you'll actually use the items. (Stuff eventually can be desynthed or turned in for seals)
But even so, they can still get the stuff they need, just like new players, by farming for a couple hours.
