[Suggestion] Tank Accessory solution?

[Daniolaut]

Either that or just put a small amount of STR on each accessory.

I would vote for this, but asks a lot of effort from Square-Enix, so very unlikely to happen.

continue to use STR 270 pieces for the tank accessories that only provide VIT.

270 doesn't scale. The same as melds do not scale. New item level does. The OP is a realistic solution.

Also, it doesn't address the concern that healers and DPS scale on 5/5 of their right side pieces, while tanks currently scale on 0/5 of their role-locked ones. This would simply change that number to 2/5 pieces for tanks.

Tanks need HP/vitality as well. Making all the accessories STR only based, would lead to eventual 1 shots of tanks. So it's a 5/5 upgrade for tanks.
