Str/Vit have the same weight when it comes to a tank's DPS/attack power right now (Extra Str on accessories just gives a bit more damage from everything overall). They would have to change how that works for a 'tank as a DPS' in this set up.

Not to mention this kind of 'split' for classes would have had to have been worked on from the get go. It's way too late for something like this to be implemented.
