Tank Scaling still a massive issue

[FallenWings]

Read what I said again.

"Meld more strength and then a bunch of crit/direct hit."

For the cost of 2 strength's worth of damage vs 240 accessories you can meld 160 substats.

It's the same for everyone else as far as I'm aware? I don't see your point other then me reading the meld more strength part wrong.

I keep seeing this point made all over this board whenever there is a tank complaint thread or a pro-DPS tank thread on here.

Can a "Tank Purist" like you, Johnny, explain to me (a "Tank Radical") why it I am not considered tanking if I do swap to DPS stance (or drop Grit) and spam DPS combos?

Duh. It's because you're not in your "Tank Stance" therefore you're not tanking 'properly'. Can you stop trying to maximize your gameplay and stick to your basic functions please? We don't need tryhards in this care bear game.
