Buffing VIT Nerfing STR - Some simple math...

[Starkbeaumont]

HP-based skills aren't really getting better considering SE planned to have us use VIT stuff anyway. that we don't is just the result of the raid design and the meta that the players created.

the way i see it is that in the worst case we end up having the same atk a full vit tank would have now, though it will be probably higher cause the players actually want to do some dmg as tank as well.

I'm hope we end up around the atk of the penta melded accessories

With the incoming change, only tanks HP will be affected. Raidwide damage can't be increased base on that, or you'll just kill everyone else.
So, a Divine Veil based on a full VIT PLD will give a stronger shield compared to the same relative raid damage.
