Tank Mitigation vs Tank DPS.

[ForteNightshade]

Actually i Melded Tenacity, then Skillspeed, then Crit on my PLD tank gear. Crit 1999, Det 1857, Direct Hit 418, Skillspeed 2227, Tenacity 3214. Thx to all the ppl selling cheap tier 7 Tenacity/Skillspeed materia lol.

60k Clemencies are nice. 10k Tankbusters is nice too.

... and this alone epitomizes why you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. PLD hates Skill Speed because it mis-aligns Fight or Flight. You want only a set amount—current bis being 1133—then you never touch the stat again. As for that 10k tankbuster. Tenacity makes absolutely zero relevant difference. You'll use the same cooldowns, your heal with use the same heals. All that changes is you're doing less damage by foolishly gimping yourself out of pure stubbornness. You can decry "raid elitists" all you fancy but theorycrafters actually put in the work to determine how each stat benefits us. What have you done? Screamed on a forum how right you are with zero evidence to support your feelscraft nonsense and somehow insist a meld set build for Savage or Ultimate content will be inferior in a dungeon—you know, that mindlessly brain dead easy content.
